Good quality, good price.
Good quality. My cat lived to be 19 eating IAMS. Reasonable price point. I also use other varieties for other cats and everyone likes the flavors.

Saved my cat pain and suffering
My cat got old and wouldn’t eat any other kind of dry food. The purina pro senior food was so so and much better than others but ultimately he hated that one too. Switched to this and bam zero issue with this or the sensitive stomach one. He seems to love all of the iams dry food but he doesn’t like the iams wet food. The wet food of choice is the purina senior pate chicken or tuna. He eats it all up every time. So originally my cat started getting skinny to the point that I considered it animal cruelty on my own part without even realizing it. But I always kept his bowl full an gave him wet food but he wasn’t eating any of it. The dry food was the blue buffalo and the wet I kept trying all different types and nothing was working until the purina senior canned food. I didn’t get a chance to weigh how thin he got but I’d say he was maybe down to 9 pounds possibly in the 8’s but he is naturally a bigger cat so he was about 4 pounds underweight. I need to weigh him but from all my previous weights of him in the past I’d say he’s maybe 14 pounds right now. Hes gotten quite heavy which is where he should be really. Trying to also make sure he’s exercising so it isn’t junk weight and really it just seems like he’s gained healthy weight not just fat. So I’d have to give this food a million out of a million or a trillion out of a trillion because it really saved my cat from being in pain and suffering. He is much stronger now even at over 14 years old I saw him hop over my 7 foot high wall/fence with not really much of anything to grip onto. It always amazed me he could do that even when he was over 18 pounds but when he was down to 8 to 9 he couldn’t. He never seemed like the most physically capable cat because hes so non aggressive. In reality hes a very strong cat and phycically could win but just isnt an alpha until he has to be hes a cute cat that just loves to be loved and doesnt have a mean bone in his body. Had another cat that would beat him up and had to get rid of it even tho it was a good cat and wouldnt ever hurt people but he didn’t want anyone interfering he wanted his undevided attention and all of the love not half so he would fight the other and aggressively block him from coming near other people. But he would his jaws on his throat a lot and scared the crap out of me. He was a good cat on his own but wanted all the attention to himself I think it was because he was the first cat even though not by much. Children have the same type of jealousy between brothers and sisters with abandonment type issues.

The cats love it. Who am I to argue?
Excellent stuff, from my cats’ point of view. They’re all older cats and they need lots more protein, but I give them what they’ll EAT, instead of spending tons of money on nutritionally correct cat food they turn up their noses at (my oldest is 18 and he’s old enough to have whatever he damn well pleases at this point).

Tried and tested.
My 11 year old is a picky eater.I’ve tried giving Luna Blue Buffalo Wilderness, Science Diet, and Nulo which she flat out refused to eat. But Iams has always been the safe bet. It’s not grain free, but it’s most definitely the best if the non-grain free foods out there, and it’s the only food my cat confidently eats without issue. It doesn’t upset her stomach either. A lot of the grain free foods would cause her to puke often.

Old guy approved, bowl stays empty
I’m a distinguished senior gentleman (the vet says “older cat,” I prefer “vintage”), and my humans switched me to this food a little while ago. I was suspicious at first, because any change clearly signals a plot, but it actually tastes pretty good. Crunchy, chicken-y, and I don’t have to yell at them to refill the bowl as often because it seems to keep me full longer. I still do yell, obviously—that’s more of a hobby.Since I’ve been on this, I’ve got a bit more pep in my step for my 3 a.m. hallway zoomies, and jumping up to my favorite window spot doesn’t feel quite as creaky. My fur’s staying soft and shiny enough that the humans keep calling me “handsome,” which is embarrassing but accurate. Overall, if your human is shopping for “senior formula,” this is one I’d tell them to put in the cart.

18 year old tabby/maine mix still going strong
I have an 18 year old mix (tabby and mainecoon), and have been giving him IAMS healthy senior for the past 8 years. While he’s definitely slowed down the past several years, he’s still healthy (nice shiny coat!) and still likes to jump up on his cat tree when it’s times for treats. He has a bowl I keep full of the Healthy Senior, and he gets a can of wet food in the morning for breakfast. He still eats a LOT (he’s a decent sized cat even now), but healthy senior has kept him around his normal healthy weight, although he is lighter now than he has been most of his life. But, that said, he still RUNS to his food area when it’s time to refill his IAMS bowl or get his wet food, darn near tripping me every time, or when it’s time for treats, and still cuddles up against me at night while I sleep, with the requisite 10-15 minutes of attention he requires before I’m allowed to turn off for the night. Not too shabby for a cat that’s as old as my twin nephews that are in college now! While I know genetics and exposure to things like cat diseases affect the longevity of a cat’s life, and I can’t say with any certainty that Healthy Senior is the main reason he is still around after 18 years, I feel it definitely helps him out tremendously!

I’ve been using Iams dry kibble cat food for my prima donna toriteshell ever since she came home from the animal shelter in the autumn of 2007. At that time, she was teacup size and could tuck in and sleep comfortably under my ear. On the advice of my longtime vet, she had Iams kitten formula dry food, with a very small treat of wet tuna 2-3 times per week. At about 1-1/2 years, she switched to Iams Indoor Weight & Hairball Care Dry food, and did very well on that for about 11-1/2 years. Then, for some reason, she began having problems with a very upset stomach, and frequent vomiting after eating. So, I tried samples of 3 other Iams dry foods, and she did very well on the Healthy Senior Dry Cat Food, and had no more upset tummy troubles (and no more 3 AM cleanups). For the last 20 months, she’s been on that, augmented with 1 tsp. of whitefish & tuna “pate” twice a day. Initially, this was to get some medication into her, but after the medication was finished, she still wanted that little bit of wet food, so we’ve gone with that. Since changing from the Indoor Weight & Hairball Control formula, her coat seems to be softer, and there have been only a few stomach upsets – maybe 3 or 4 in all. She’s also lost a bit of weight, and is definitely more active and more vocal. I was buying the larger 3.something bags, but I noticed that the texture seemed to deteriorate by about 2/3 of the way through a large bag. So, I changed to the 1.5 kg size, and this has worked out well, still with 1 tsp of whitefish & tuna 2X daily. On the principle that, “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” I think we’ll be staying with Proactive Healthy Dry Senior unless circumstances, or the vet suggest otherwise. I’ve had very good luck with Iams over the years, particularly their dry kibble, and this is another success. She’s energetic, healthy, and deigns to be admired and have a good chin scritch when she’s not roaring around the main floor at 6:45 PM, or doing guard duty in the “sentry post” that overlooks the front street – a task she has scheduled every day, almost to the minute.

The only thing my 17 year old cat eats and he’s as fit as ever.

This past summer I was convinced by a friend to get my cat food from Costco. At $26 for a massive bag, and his cats seemed to do well on it, I figured why not. It took a few months but my cats got sick and constipated. I immediately put them back on this, and after awhile they are now happy and healthy again. Word of advice, if you have kittens or young cats, cheaper cat food may suffice. Kind of like humans, we can eat more junk food as younger people and not see much effect. If you have older cats, just stick to the senior food even if it’s a bit more. Seeing my cats sick like that scared the heck out of me.

17 year old, 5 pound cat, almost toothless cat. Bits are small enough for her to gum and sometimes even swallow whole (she also gets wet food). I leave the dry food out for her to have food 24/7.
