Wellness Dry Cat Food for Adult Cats, Healthy Weight Recipe, 5 lb. 14 oz. Bag

My Cat loves this food, and I love it too because since she has been eating it, she has lost a bit of weight, has plenty of energy, and her COAT looks amazing! It is much thicker and shinier than before and she seems very happy. I don't think it is too expensive - one bag lasts our cat almost 3 months! That means you are spending less than $15 per month on food, and honestly what good Cat-Parent wouldn't spend only $0.50 per day to make sure his/her little one is getting excellent nutrition?

I decided to try this food for my two slightly overweight cats. They have generally resisted dry food changes before, so I was pleasantly surprised when they took to the Healthy Weight formula right away and were willing to eat it by itself within a week. Personally I didn't find the pellets' strange gray-ish color to be very appetizing, but I wasn't the one eating them so I guess it doesn't matter!

Something to note here is that while this food may be low-calorie compared to other Wellness formulas, at 450 kcal/cup the caloric content of this food is the same or higher than many similar brands' normal formulas, such as:

I have two overweight cats that I had been feeding EVO and Newman's Own. What I didn't realize is how many calories these brands have, especially EVO which is packed with dense protein. I tried scaling back on portions and got mewed at constantly until I caved in. I decided to try this brand since it's not filled with fillers and claimed it could help lose weight.

At first they picked at it but within a month they ate the entire meal without complaint. They have been losing weight (now around 2 lbs each) over the past 4 months.

Like with humans, there's no magic bullet with weight loss. We all need more excercise and better portion control. This helps me prevent overfeeding since there are less calories but more bulk. I also introduced new play toys to get them active again. The drawback is that this brand is expensive and it smells oddly of dried fruit.

I say if you don't mind the price, give the small bag a try.
