Why so many issues with cat diets?

Mich99

1 month ago
Our cat was on the c/d urinary formula for years only to begin throwing up and losing weight. Now the z/d is recommended. I want to know WHY so many cats are havoc allergic reactions to canned and dry vet prescribed foods? I’m from South Africa and pets there do not need nearly as many prescription diets as they do here. Cats are over vaccinated, over treated and I suspect it’s creating a cascade of issues downstream. Our cat actually likes the z/d for now. It’s got awful consistency though and makes a huge mess.

After 8mo of changing foods, lots of meds & tests, my cat's GI tract is almost totally healed. She is so much more playful, eats better & her fur is softer. Thanks so much.

The only food our IBD cat can eat

Ipabrams

Our cat with a mysterious digestion issue, possibly IBD, can only digest (keep down) two brands. z/d is one of the brands and both the wet and dry work for her. There are times when she struggles with the wet for some reason, and then she tolerates the dry.

Yes, I recommend this product.

My cat just loves this food. Kibbles are small so easy to eat and it agrees with her. Tried other prescrption brands and other Science Diet dry over counter food.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Contains ground pecan shells!

Zuludin

The food has ground pecan shells listed as one of the ingredients. Another quiet recipe change with a garbage ingredient that no cat can benefit from! My cat is not a squirrel to eat pecan shells. Shame on you!

No, I do not recommend this product.

Science Diet y/d is a GODSEND.

Graffiti Gal

Our 8-year-old female Siamese mix developed hyperthyroidism last summer and medications were not able to be given without one person holding her and the other administering it. We were fast-losing her trust and love. Our vet then prescribed Science Diet y/d Chicken Dry Food. She quickly adapted to the y/d food and by day two was eating it voraciously and drinking water at a greater rate as well. Her cat box habits normalized and all three of us couldn't be happier!

Questions

1 - 4 of 4 Questions
Sort by: Newest Answers

What is the difference between the d/d formula and z/d? Both say for food sensitivity, but I am having an easier time finding z/d in sock rather then the d/d my vet prescribed. Can I substitute one for the other?

    Could a 7 month old kitten eat the dry food but still eat wet kitten food?  Our adult cat needs to eat the prescription food but trying to feed them separately is causing neither of them to eat 

    1. Yes. Should not be a problem. We do the same with ours



    Can you feed this to kittens?  

    1. Thank you for your question. Prescription Diet® z/d® is formulated to meet the needs of an adult cat. Hill's Pet Nutrition



    Does the Hills Z/D dry food have more than one flavor?

    1. no
