My Cats Love it

My cats have been having issues with their weight for awhile. They aren’t the most active and they’re seniors. This doesn’t help them lose weight but it does help

My cats have been having issues with their weight for awhile. They aren’t the most active and they’re seniors. This doesn’t help them lose weight but it does help keep them from gaining more. My cats were able to transition to it pretty easily. I do wish it was available without the freeze dried pieces, but only because 1 of my cats can’t chew them.

Arrived crushed

Upon opening, the kibbles were mainly crushed, which is a turn off for my cat.

Helped our HCM Sphynx loose weight

We always fed our Sphynx cats Instinct, but they were getting a little chunky. After switching to health weight, they lost the excess and are at a perfect weight

We always fed our Sphynx cats Instinct, but they were getting a little chunky. After switching to health weight, they lost the excess and are at a perfect weight now. They had no problems switching and still crave it as much as any other version of the Instinct dry food.

Tuna Dog has eaten this after starting on this food at Best Friends, where I got him as a rescue stray. He is still a fat cat, but is not getting any bigger, so it helps to control his size.

Cat loves it.

One of my cats has had irritable bowel problems for years. Vomiting and diarrhea were common, plus putrid feces. The vet first tested for parasites. Negative. Several

One of my cats has had irritable bowel problems for years. Vomiting and diarrhea were common, plus putrid feces. The vet first tested for parasites. Negative. Several different foods were tried with no success. Then Royal Canin Hydrolyzed. No change. I ordered bags of various only freeze dried meat. He refused to eat it. Then I gave him only cooked meat and Instinct Raw Boost chicken. Within 2 days, the vomiting and diarrhea stopped. The Raw Boost has chunks of freeze dried meat plus kibble. He loves it and it does not upset his stomach. I do not know what he was reacting to. Just glad he is better.

Cat didn't like

Our cat very carefully ate everything but the freeze dried clumps. I tried adding them to water and she still wouldn't touch it.
