My cat eats Hills W/D dry only. She does well on it and will remain on it forever.

Does anyone use either of these 2 brands? Dry food only.

My 5 year old has been on WD for 2 years. She's overweight but also needed a low fat diet due to pancreatic problems. She eats dry only and does fine on it. She's even lost a little weight. I personally don't like the ingredients but the formula works for my cat and that's all that matters...

Go back to the WD. Or do what I do - mix RD with WD dry

Are you feeding dry only. How long did it take for your cats to lose wt on the RD? I tried the RD once before but my cat's stools were very large in diameter. I was afraid she would eventually not be able to pass them, so I went back to the WD only. This time we're mixing WD & RD together.

My cat needs to lose 3 pounds - has anyone used either of these products? If so are you still feeding them? Has your cat lost weight?

My vet has recommended Hills WD for my cat. It contains bulylated hydroxyanisole (BHA for short), bulylated hydroxytoluene (BHT for short and ethoxyquin. The legal maxium limit for these preservatives to be used in pet food is 75ppm (parts per million). Ethoxyquin has never been tested for...

I agree that cats don't drink a lot of water. You said you give your cats a small amount of canned. How much per cat(s)?

Since you work in a vet clinic what do your vets recommend for helping to keep the teeth clean - dry or canned food. I know brushing is the best and I try to brush my cat's teeth 3x a week.

I'm trying to brush her teeth on Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday. She's not crazy about it but at least she's stopped growling at me. It only takes 1-2 minutes to do. Even less when she sits still. I use toothpaste purchased from the vet - brand name C.E.T in seafood flavor. Also comes in poultry...

Two years ago my cat had what's called a super chem blood test to use as a future baseline line. Her amalyse level & triglycerides were very high. The amalyse would either indicate kidney problems or pancreatitis. However, her kidney values, including a urine sample were negative. Vet...

I just had my cat's teeth cleaned 1/12/06. She had blood work done and was knocked out for the procedure. She came thru just fine. I've now started to try and brush her teeth 2-3 times a week.

Are you feeding just dry WD. That's what I feed but I'm concerned about the synethic preservations BHA, BHT and ethyoxquin. How do you feel?

In a previous thread you were feeding the Hi-Factor. Why the change to WD. If also feed WD - have one cat - I purchase the 4# bags from the vet - usually 2 at a time. To be honest I really haven't seen any weight loss but she hasn't gained any either and she loves the food.

I'm using the WD. Once your cat loses weight the vet will probably switch you over to the WD for maintenance. My cat is eating WD because of pancreatic problems and weight. She hasn't lost any weight but she hasn't gained any either. Are you feeding strictly dry or dry and canned. I feed...

What prescription food are you feeding?

My cat just had her teeth cleaned last week. She is 5 years old and had a mild case of gingivitis plus tarter buildup. After the cleaning her teeth and gums look wonderful. It's worth it have their teeth taken care of. If not, the bacteria from the gums winds up going all thru their body...

What Hill's Prescription formula are you using? RD or WB. How long have you been feeding this?

My cat is also on WD dry only since June. She weighs 14 pounds. She hasn't lost any weight but she stopped gaining. I feed her 3/4 cup spread out over the day. How much do you feed per day?

My cat is on the Hills WD. I was feeding a mix of 1/8 cup wet and 5/8 cups dry. Have found that my cat is more satisfied on dry alone. I don't feed canned anymore.
