Purina Pro PlanWeight Control Dry Cat Food, Chicken and Rice Formula - 7 lb. Bag

this is the only food my cat will eat. her weight is purrfect and she loves it - chowing down on it each time as if she's never seen it before! it isn't gross and smelly like other big name cat foods.

Cat loves the food

Seems good and the cats snack on this when they are hungry between meals. My vet recommended thisbsince my cats were getting too big,. I think it helps curb their appetites.

Not sure if my cats are losing weight but hopefully they are maintaining,

It's not my favorite smell. Our cats seem to love this food. Our cats look healthy. It doesn't cause diarrhea for our pets.

My 6 year old spayed indoor cat is quite lazy and refuses to eat anything but dry kibble. She gained a few pounds above her ideal weight, so 2 years ago, her vet switched her from her usual Purina Indoor Cat Chow to Hills Prescription Diet Metabolic Weight Management. She was on this very expensive prescription food for about 18 months. In this period, she gained another lb despite having a strictly metered automatic feeder schedule. I ran into difficulty getting the prescription food this fall, so I decided to take matters into my own hands and switch her food to Purina Pro Plan Weight Management. I read a lot of reviews before I decided to switch & really appreciated all of the insight from others. I was able to slowly make the switch per recommendations on the packaging. In just 3 months, I have noticed a drastic improvement in my cat’s coat condition. She didn’t have her usual silky sheen and seemed to shed a lot more. I thought it was just because she was getting older, but her coat definitely looks and feels so much better now. She seems to be more sated with this kibble, and doesn’t beg for more food like she did on the Hill’s diet. I have also noticed that she does not appear to be quite as heavy and is starting to lean out a bit. She won’t tolerate being weighed at home, so I will have to wait a few months until her next checkup to see how she is doing. Her energy level is good and she seems to be thriving. I wish that I had switched her food sooner! I got a discount by choosing auto ship and I appreciated getting an email reminder before it was time for my second order was to ship so that I could make some changes to the shipping frequency. It is so convenient to have it delivered.

My cat wife is so constipated that I also have to give her a 1/2 teaspoon of MiraLAX mixed in with a little of wet cat food, and she is about 16 pounds which is why it has to be a 1/2 teaspoon of MiraLax that I buy at the grocery store under the instructions of my professional Veterinarian, and the rhythm is that on the day of a good bowel movement I pass up giving her the MiraLAX, and on the very next day I give a 1/2 of a teaspoon of MiraLAX each day until another good and again and on that day I pass up the treatment only to follow the next days with the MiraLAX until the day of a good bowel movement and again I pass up the MiraLAX only on that day; however, it does seem to work better of a 1/4 of MiraLAX in the morning and a 1/4 of MiraLAX in the evening, but that means that I need more wet cat food; therefore, I just do 1/2 of a teaspoon once with a little of wet cat food, and the rest of the time she gets this dry cat food mixed in with the dry cat food for Urinary problems that occurred with her constipation that also had her throwing up all the time as well, and when I stay on the rhythm of the MiraLAX all of the problems disappeared meaning that there is no constipation and no urinary problems and no throwing up all of the time. I wish that I was wealthy enough to create a dry cat food with MiraLAX mixed in and it makes me wonder why someone like Purina has not already done this because it would solve so many problems for cat lovers and their overall health where good bowel movements are definitely required.

I bought this for my fatcat. The other two cats loved it, too, so I now feed all of them this product. I asked the vet if it was okay to use for all my cats, and he said, "Yes, it's for weight management, so they can all eat it." My fatcat has lost two pounds. It has taken about a year, but I can't even lose two pounds at any time, so I am really pleased with the outcome.
