Highlighted Reviews
"This was a system that took remembering which week was blue bag and which week was red bag. I was able to remember and it work well for my kitty. She didn’t really like the taste but eventually she would eat it. She was only on this for about 6 weeks and she was at a good weight again."
"Since it was new, I thought it'd be worth a try. But Not sure there is a difference in the two formulas. Plus, with three cats, managing their individual caloric intake is challenging for me. They ate both formulas, though, so that's good."
