Customers say

Customers overwhelmingly praise this cat food for delivering dramatic weight loss and renewed vitality. Most report cats losing one to three pounds within weeks, becoming noticeably more active and playful. Reviewers highlight improved coat shine, reduced eye discharge, and better breathing. Nearly all cats readily accept the food and eat eagerly. While some note the high price, nearly all who mentioned cost concluded it was worth the results. A small number expressed concerns about grain content or reported their cats didn't lose additional weight after initial drops, but these remained isolated cases. Overall, customers consider it highly effective and plan long-term use.

My kitties love it, even my picky one- must be pretty palatable. Have noticed a small weight loss in ~3 months and maintenance of the loss, which I’m happy with!

I always get my food within 2-3 days of ordering so the babies don't go hungry or need to switch to random foods while waiting

I love the product but I have had to switch to a different food due to a health issue with my cat. Need to cancel. I have tried to edit and can't seem to get there.

My cats really enjoy this food, so much so that it doesn’t seem to do much for weight loss, but that’s probably due to serving sizes.

Questions

1 - 1 of 1 Questions

How can this be healthy for a cat when the second and third ingredients are high carb items (grains) and the fourth ingredient is wood pulp?

  1. Cellulose is a natural plant fiber (not necessarily ‘wood pulp’), and is used to help move food thru the cat’s digestive system - similar to why people that eat a high fiber diet tend to lose weight. The addition of cellulose also appears to help many cats with hairballs.
