IAMS Proactive Health Indoor Dry Cat Food, Chicken & Turkey, 22 lb

This was my first time trying IAMS Proactive Health Indoor with my cats, and I’m very happy with it. They liked the Chicken & Turkey formula right from the start and ate it very well. It’s always great when you introduce a new food and the cats actually enjoy it without hesitation. Based on my first experience, this was definitely a successful choice for them. I’ll absolutely be ordering another bag again!

I picked this indoor cat formula because my cat spends most of her time inside and tends to hairball while grooming. The idea of a proactive health approach with hairball care and a natural fiber blend sounded practical. I was drawn by the claim that real chicken is the first ingredient, which felt like solid protein for an active indoor cat. On a daily basis the kibble is easy to measure and fits into our morning and evening routine. My cat eats it with interest and seems to settle into a steady routine after the switch. I have noticed her digestion seems smoother and there are fewer hairball episodes around the house. What stood out most is the blend of natural fiber and prebiotics, which seems to support digestion without causing fuss at mealtime. The hairball control feature is noticeable in real life, with fewer incidents and a healthier coat after a couple weeks. The bag and packaging are convenient for long term use, and the food maintains its freshness between refills. A small note is that the transition required a few days for her to adjust to the new texture and fiber mix; I started by mixing a small amount with the old food and increased gradually. Overall the routine feels straightforward and reliable. I would give it five stars.

My little guys love this cat food and I feel so much bettter about giving them this than a lot of other brands. They do enjoy it but have stayed at a safe weight despite my mackrel tabby being an overeater (we've tried to fix this, but the vet says he's fine). Our VERY VERY furry orange tabby has had a LOT less hairballs with this. Oh my GOSH it's like night and day. I mean this child is ... just fur. One 16lb bag lasts us a godo while for our two cat. We keep it in a container so it odesn't get stale. But gosh, they love this stuff. It's a good price for tha mount we get, our kitties love it, it doesn't stink the house up nor makes their breath stinky. Good, quality kitty food that both our kitties adore and we are told pretty quickly when they can see the bottom of the tray.

My cat absolutely loves this food! In fact, it's so good that my dog is constantly trying to steal it from the cat's bowl. Every time I put it down, both pets seem interested in it. The kibble is a good size, and my cat eats it eagerly without any issues. I've also noticed my cat looks healthy and happy while eating this food regularly. The bag lasts a reasonable amount of time, and the quality seems excellent for the price. If your cat is a picky eater, this is definitely worth trying. Just be prepared to keep an eye on any food-loving dogs in the house! 😹🐶⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Cats love it. I’ll keep buying this brand it’s moist not as hard or dry as previous brand.

My cat loves the food and cleans out her bowl insanely fast, would definitely but it again

Dr. Kate - DVM vet here. I was looking through some of the bad reviews (very minimal compared to great reviews) of this IAMS cat food. I understand that some of had problems with this particular food with your cats - a lot of vomiting, refusal to eat, diarrhea, and so forth - I'm sorry to hear that. But notice over 35 thousand people give this food 5 stars. Including me. And I am a vet. There are a lot of scenarios regarding changing cat foods. First of all, never just change food cold turkey - its the 1-2 week blend rule. I recommend checking with your vet first regardless, and then you start by only introducing a tiny amount (maybe 1/10th of new food mixed in with the food they are used to) . Every two days or so add another 1/10th, or so - and change the ratio a tiny bit. Even at 1 week, being half and half by then is best and many vets think that is even pretty aggressive. Take the whole second week to get new food to 60%, then 70% etc. Until you reach the new food at 100%. {Personally I take 3-4 weeks for the whole transition. It's absolutely critical to do this. Dogs and cats have VERY sensitive stomachs and if they have a new food right off the bat overnight - you can almost guarantee they will have vomiting and diarrhea and cramps and be in pain. And, because their tummy feels so horrible as a result - of course they won't want to go near that food again. I wouldn't - would you? Also, it's VERY important to brush animals regularly - particularly indoor cats. My Lani cat - a wonderful rescue - loves her brushings - I keep her brush under the side table near couch and I sit down in eve to watch the news at end of day - she jumps in my lap and looks at the brush. The brush has those tiny gentle metal bristles that really catches all the loose soft fluffy loose and even semi loose hair - so therefore in her self - grooming/ licking of her coat - which they do all the time! She does not swallow (at least very very little) hair. She has never had a hairball to my knowledge. I brush her about 4 times a week. I've seen poor kitties retching to try to get their hairballs up and they can be dangerous and even require surgery if severe and big enough that the cat cannot pass them through stools. Again - brush cats as often as possible. Dogs, too. The other very real possibility - if you've introduced a new food very slowly - say over two weeks - and the cat is still ill from it - that there may be an ingredient your cat is allergic to. Similar to say a gluten allergy. Animals have allergies, too. If 35 thousand people really like this cat food - rather their cats do, my girl thrives on it - I trust it and I've reviewed the ingredients. For me the proof is in the pudding. And with gradual introduction. Hope that helps someone. - Dr. Kate - DVM
