Pets can be sensitive to sudden changes in their diets. For this reason, it is extremely important to follow a gradual transition plan to best support your pet's health and product effectiveness. It is recommended to follow at least a 7-day transition plan before exclusively feeding your pet a new food. Cats will often refuse mixed diets, so we recommend adding the new food to a separate bowl from the old food. Start by mixing 75% of your pet's current diet with 25% of the new diet on Day 1 and Day 2. On Day 3 and Day 4, mix 50% of the current diet with 50% of the new diet. On Day 5 and Day 6, mix 25% of the current diet with 75% of the new diet. On Day 7, you can feed your pet the new food exclusively. Ask your Veterinarian about the best way to transition your pet to a new food.
Transition Day | Current Diet | New Diet |
---|---|---|
Days 1-2 | 75% | 25% |
Days 3-4 | 50% | 50% |
Days 5-6 | 25% | 75% |
Day 7 | 0% | 100% |

If your clinic needs more information from you or recommends a different diet, we'll let you know immediately.
I have a copy of the authorization from my veterinarian. Can I send it to you?

Why do I need a veterinarian's authorization?
Veterinary diets are formulated with the precise ingredients and nutrients needed to address specific medical issues. Because these diets are formulated for medical issues, veterinary authorization is needed to advise you on the best way to give them to your pet and to monitor your pet's health while they are on the diet.

Yes, but we'll need them to contact us and provide the full name of the pet's owner after the order is placed. This is so the veterinary clinic can locate your pet's records when we contact them. Email us at vetdiet@chewy.com or call us 24/7 at 1-800-672-4399.

Purina Dental Health Dry Cat Food
By DrRAS on Dec 19, 2020
Purina DH is as effective and much easier than brushing the teeth of cats. A suggestion: I mix DH (1:10) with Purina One Indoor for my elderly/potentially overweight cats. DH is relatively high in calories (My cats will pick out the large kibble DH from the mix, then fill up on the small kibble) My cats' teeth are clear of dental plaque. DrRAS, DVM

Really loves food
By Firstcatowner on Nov 20, 2020
My cat roommate Belle really loves this food. Her vet recommended it to me when plaque was found on her teeth. They gave me a sample to mix in her other food. She ate the mixed food up and later ate the dental food by itself. It has been about four years now and she still likes it. It has saved us from expensive dental work and her teeth look good. Thanks Chewy!

This company is extraordinary!
By jan10 on May 6, 2020
My cat uses the Dental Health balls and I could see that I was getting low on them. My cat has a routine that every morning, she must have "her treats" before she will eat. I usually get them from my local vet. She had just cancelled an appointment for my cat, so I was pretty sure her office was closed. So I decided to order from Chewy, but I discovered that I needed to get a RX from my Vet. It was a catch 22. If I could go to my own Vet, I wouldn't need to order them! So, I cancelled the order. To my astonishment, they got in touch with my Vet and they got the RX. I reordered and it was here in 2 days! I love these people!

Great service + timely delivery
By Wildkittens on May 19, 2020
This needed my vet to Skyn off, I already had her and one of my cats in the chewy system for Adequan and plugged them in. My vet was able to approve this easily and it was at my house by the end of the week. Chewy is the best!

does what it says
By meow on Apr 12, 2019
My cats like the taste and it does a good job of cleaning their teeth, but as a supplement of manually cleaning their teeth with VetzLife (prescription only).
