Iams Proactive Health-Salmon flavor has been an inexpensive food that my Maine Coon can tolerate! He has suffered from severe skin allergies and this is the most economical cat food that he can eat without causing severe itching, biting at himself, and raw skin patches. He enjoys the flavor, has put on healthy weight and is finally comfortable! I highly recommend trying it!

I think the "Hairball Care" aspect is good (even though we give him about a pea size amount of Vaseline petroleum jelly monthly for hairball treatment, and he never experiences hairballs). He loves the taste. We tried Kirkland brand once, and he did not really like it. IAMS PROACTIVE HEALTH cat food keeps him on a nutritious diet.

I’ve been buying this cat food for months now, and I am absolutely in love with it! My cats are more energetic, their coat is shiny and soft! I’ve tried so many different brands, but nothing compares to this. My cats, being long hair used to continuously get haitballs, and now it VERY rare for them to get them! The ingredients are top quality, and it’s so nice to know I’m giving her something both delicious and nutritious. I couldn’t recommend this product more it’s become an essential part of her diet, and I’ll continue buying it for as long as she’ll eat it!

PRICY but my senior cats do well with this food!

My cat really loves the taste of this one

Shipping was fast and the price was great.

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

Works fine for Snowy my white cat. Would recommend

Same good product I have used for some time and makes a difference for hairballs.

After a heartfelt chat with my feline friend, Tiga, we've jointly decided that IAMS Proactive Health Dry Cat Food for Indoor Weight & Hairball Care deserves nothing less than a five-star rating. Here's the breakdown from Tiga's perspective, as interpreted by her dedicated human: Flavor that Fascinates: Tiga, who prides herself on her discerning taste buds, has officially declared IAMS as her favorite. She claims it's the caviar of cat food, satisfying her gourmet cravings every time. Slim and Sleek: As an indoor cat with a somewhat leisurely lifestyle, Tiga has found IAMS instrumental in maintaining her sleek physique. It's her secret to staying nimble, despite her fondness for long naps in sunny spots. Hairball Hassle No More: Tiga used to regard hairballs as an inevitable nuisance, but since switching to IAMS, she's been pleasantly surprised. The reduction in hairball incidents has been a game-changer, making both our lives easier. Visible Vitality: Though Tiga doesn't bother with the details on the packaging, she's definitely feeling the benefits. Her coat is glossier, her eyes sparkle with mischief, and she's more energetic than ever (to the point where no shelf is too high). Endorsement from Tiga: With a fussy palate like hers, it's not easy to find a food that ticks all the boxes. But IAMS has done just that, earning her wholehearted approval and enthusiastic recommendations to all her feline friends. In conclusion, from Tiga's refined palate to her overall health and happiness, IAMS Proactive Health Dry Cat Food for Indoor Weight & Hairball Care is a total win. It not only meets Tiga's exacting standards but also supports her well-being, making it our top pick for keeping her content, healthy, and virtually hairball-free. Five stars from Tiga, the cat with impeccable taste and now, thanks to IAMS, a perfect health report card too!

Great cat food for my indoor cat. It keeps her weight stable and provides hair ball control. Kibble is not too large, easy for her to chew.

Mes chats l adore

My cat doesnt love it fully but will eat it. I would comment on the flavour but I havnt tried it lol. Good ingerdients though. IAMS is a pretty good company for pet food. The price was decent as well. HOWEVER, the construction of the bag is terrible. There is no zip lock feature so you have to roll the top to close it and after a couple times of doing that the seam fails and starts to rip down the side. As in the picture.
