PRO PLAN Delicate Digestion Adult Dry Cat Food Turkey 3kg Pack

My cats came from a voluntary branch of Cats Protection (recommended) at the start of the year (2015) and this is the dry food that they were on at the foster carers. I believe they get it in bulk from head office. I had fed my previous cats Royal Canin which is a very good quality food but as the present cats had been through a lot I thought I would stick to the same food as they had been fed to keep change to a minimum. The cats really like this food and they seem to be very healthy. I have had no problems with tummy upsets and as they still use a litter tray I would know if there were any issues!Getting "rescue" cats is very rewarding and my cats are making slow but steady progress in their new rural environment. At least food is one thing I have not had to be concerned about.It's probably more to do with transit but although the food comes in a strong sack (10kg) made of durable material I noticed that the bottom was coming apart very slightly the other day. Nothing had leaked out but one kibble was just showing; it was easy though to push back in and a short piece Sellotape has done a very satisfactory repair, I would not expect this to happen on other sacks but maybe it is something to watch for; (if it did give way completely that would be a lot of food on the floor...) The top is just a roll down job, (unless I misunderstand it which is quite possible!) but I found it easy to secure with a clothes peg after rolling down a few times. A heavy duty zip type might have been better but they do have a habit of going wrong and they also decrease the size of the opening so maybe simple is best!This 10kg sack from Amazon is definitely the most cost effective way I have found to buy this food.

My cat loves this and was recommended by my vets

Great for all rounder cat food

This is the only cat food I buy for my cats now. I have, and have had cats with varied health needs and this food seems to have served them all well, and promoted good health for them.Until last year we had 4 cats, sadly my two old men both passed on last year. They are/were all rescue animals.The 2 that died last year each had their own health problems - one had needed most of his teeth removed due to severe tooth decay that occurred before we adopted him, and also had a very delicate stomach; and the other had a heart murmur and as such also quite a delicate renal system. They were middle aged when we got them, and due to their lives prior to us, and their health problems we were told by the shelter that A) They would require an extremely expensive veterinary specialist diet & B) They would not have a long life expectancy, they predicted - as did our vet when we took them for a check over when we first took them in - that they would only live to about 11-12.Well, the expensive food we were recommended didn't seem to be doing that so much benefit, the one with few teeth often had a very loose tummy, and the other was often on and off the litter tray able to only pass small amounts of urine at a time. While obviously also seeking the vets treatment and advice, I started trying them on different foods to see if anything improved matters.Having tried several with little difference, I happened upon this Purina Pro Plan Delicate cat food when it came on offer in the local pet store.Within the space of a week, the toothless cat was no longer suffering with loose stools, and his breath also improved. The cat with the heart and kidney trouble was finally able to pass urine properly and was no longer on and off the tray. They both seemed livelier and more energetic, and their coats also improved - this was probably through general health improvement rather than the food itself, but they were all noticeable differences. A few months after things had settled down I did try moving across to a cheaper similar food but within 2 weeks the old problems began to appear, so after that we just stuck with this one.A couple of years after adopting those 2, we took in another 2 cats who were kittens at the time. Once they moved onto adult food, I did briefly try them on a cheaper dry food, but they were far more interested in the other cat's bowls that contained the Purina than their own, so I switched them to this also. The male had to have all his teeth removed when he got a serious gum infection and abscess in his mouth and I worried if he would cope with these dry biscuits, but I needn't have worried - it only took him a couple of days to get back on them and he doesn't seem to have any trouble with them. The female will only eat this food. She is an extremely fussy cat, she will not eat anything except these - not treats, not fresh cooked chicken, only this food.All my cats have thrived on this food. The two much-missed old men reached the ages of 16 - just a few weeks shy of 17, and the other had just turned 17. considering the expectancy when we got them they did really well. They were happy and healthy right up to the end and died of old age.The two I still have seem very happy with this food. The male has an impaired sense of smell following the serious illness when he was a kitten, but this food seems to be very appetising and appealing to him. The girl is as fussy as ever, and this is the only food she will accept, the one time there was some kind of supply issue and I was out of this for a week she pretty much refused to eat anything, and she will only eat out of a particular bowl, which has to be placed on the same tile in the bathroom!I highly recommend this food, it is a complete food for adult cats, and the biscuits are good for their teeth (those that have them!). It really seems to promote good health, and appeals to even the fussiest of eaters. The "optirenal" thing does genuinely seem to alleviate some kidney and bladder problems and it is gentle on delicate tummies. As for the humans - it is convenient as it is a complete food for your cats so you can simply measure out a portion of this and don't need to add anything. It comes in different sizes including a generous 3kg size which lasts us 3-4 weeks for 2 small cats, and the bag had a handle on one side, and opens across a corner and is resealable so it is easy to use, pour and store. It doesn't have a strong unpleasant odour like some cats foods do, even some bscuits. Because it is dry food it is easy to clean the bowls after meals, and any spillage is easy to sweep up. It is not the cheapest cat food but in my opinion - and my cats opinions - this is the best food.

Popular with my cats !

my fur baby suffers from constant i.b.s and I didn't want her to go on steroids i struggled finding a food that would help this one has put my mind a rest she is now solid i couldn't believe it i 100% recommend it

£19 for 3kg. I thought it was expensive but after having a cat giving birth plus another being nearly 1 I thought I’d try. I’ve tried them in whiskers kitten and adult, gocat, they only ate when hungry. But these biscuits, I’m actually refilling the bowl every night. And they’re tucking in whether they’ve got their wet food or not. I will keep on subscription but if price goes higher I will not buy.

My kitten absolutely loves these biscuits. I got them because she is fussy with wet food so if she didn’t eat the wet food she would eat these.. that way she was still getting the nutrients she needs!
