We recommend at least a 7-day transition before you begin feeding the new food exclusively. Start by mixing 75% of the old diet with 25% of the new diet on Day 1 and Day 2. On Day 3 and Day 4, mix 50% of the old diet with 50% of the new diet. On Day 5 and Day 6, mix 25% of the old diet with 75% of the new diet. On the 7th day, you can feed the new food exclusively. This allows your pet’s digestive system to smoothly adapt to the new food.

As for the Gastro part, I think it works to control cat's diarrhea problem, but he doesn't care for the texture of the food--the rectangular bits in it. He will eat it if I crush it up into a pate. This of course does not reflect on Chewy, but Royal Canin. It's expensive stuff, and more so if I wind up throwing half of it away.

We have come down to having to give our 3yr old feline prescription food. She has struggled with GI issuesnover the past couple of months. This was our second food we tried and she loves it. It also has a little more texture than previous one.

Our cats have trouble with constipation. Our vet started them on this food. I haven’t noticed any issues, although one still takes lactalose because I’m scared to stop, and the other gets laxatone. More than anything, they love it and insist on a half can three times a day. It is expensive (Chewy is by far the cheapest place to get it) but so worth it!

My wonderful vet put my sweet boy, Bubba on this food, because he’s diabetic, hyperthyroid, and getting over his second bout of pancreatitis. He LOVES this food! I’m so very happy that he’s eating, and it’s agreeing with him! I do wish that it came in more flavors though. I’m worried that he will get sick of it.

After 4 years of suffering from constant diarrhea and not knowing the cause, Millie was finally diagnosed with IBD. I was skeptical about a diet change, but what a difference this food has made! It's like having a brand new cat. She feels so much better and even likes to cuddle and play when she used to be skittish and nervous. She must have felt so bad for so long...poor baby. It is amazing how even her eyes look brighter. Normal poops every single day. We have been using the dry mixed with the moderate calorie wet food twice a day, and even our other cat (who has no health issues) loves it. I only give 4 stars because of the price. I do wish it was cheaper, but well worth the money After 4 years of suffering from constant diarrhea and not knowing the cause, Millie was finally diagnosed with IBD.

This RC has been a lifesaver for my large cat with BID. But she goes through 3 cans a day and y trash is glutted with empty cans. Would love to see an 8 oz. can.

This food was recommended by my vet for my cat, Kiki's constipation issues. She really enjoys the food and it has helped regulate her system. What a relief.

This is new food for my cat. The vet assigned this to help my cat with a couple of health conditions. I was afraid she won't like it, but so far she has tried the canned food, and she likes it. I haven't tried the dry food that goes with it, just yet. Will try tomorrow

After making a major mistake in how quickly I tried switching my 9 year old Ragdoll to a "tastier" food (he was underweight), he developed explosive diarrhea, until I switched him back to his old gross food and then his poo remained at a mashed-potato consistency for over a month. Antibiotics didn't help at all! When I finally switched him (SLOWLY) to this product mixed with the dry version and a probiotic supplement, his poop became solid again (thank heavens). He loves it. He prefers wet food that is chunky rather than a paté. This looks and smells appetizing, he gobbles it up in minutes. Wish it was grain-free, but you know, you gotta pick your battles in life.
