How should you transition from your cat’s current food to IAMS?

To transition your cat to IAMS, mix your cat’s current food with IAMS. Over 4 days, gradually decrease the amount of the current food while increasing the amount of IAMS to avoid digestive issues.

What are the benefits of feeding my cat IAMS over other brands?

IAMS is committed to keeping your cat healthy for life. This means as your cat’s nutrient requirements change over the years, IAMS offers tailored nutrition for each stage of life and has products that target specific health needs.

When do I transition my cat from IAMS kitten food to IAMS adult food and then to IAMS senior food?

IAMS kitten food products are recommended for all cats under 1 year old. Over 1 year old, it’s recommended that your cat is fed adult IAMS cat food. Any cat over 7 years old should be fed IAMS senior cat food products.

How did IAMS get to be a veterinarian recommended cat food brand?

Veterinarians recommend IAMS. When you feed your cat IAMS, you can be confident in the nutrition they’re getting because it is a 100% complete and balanced cat food for their life stage.

Can I feed my cat IAMS wet food and IAMS dry kibble?

Feeding your cat both IAMS wet food and IAMS dry kibble with a combined or mixed feeding approach can offer a variety of flavors and textures that your cat may enjoy, but also offers the benefits of both products in a single meal.

Directions

Suggested Amount to Feed per Day Based on Weight of Cat: 4lbs. = 1/4 - 1/3 cup 8lbs. = 1/3 - 1/2 cup 12lbs. = 1/2 - 2/3 cup 16lbs. = 2/3 - 3/4 cup 22lbs. = 3/4 - 1 cup These guideline amounts are a starting point and your cat may need more food depending upon age, activity and temperament.

Taking care of my best buddy...
5 Stars
Taking care of my best buddy...
The moment I received the delivery (which was a smooth process by the way. I ordered the 16lb bag and received it less than 24hrs later - thanks Amazon)Today was a hard one for me...As I opened the box it dawned on me, my best buddy will be turning 10 soon (He was adopted from a shelter at around age 2) . As playful as he is, he has slowed down. I have been in denial, including having to order this cat food for the first time. From the x-rays showing his arthritis along his lower back to him just needing a little more time to take it slow and steady down the stairs. In those moments I realized he is getting older. I was/am filled with immense sadness as I introduce him to his senior food, I've had him on the iams protein adult for a few years... the vet recommended this. His first observation was to chew it and spit it out hahaha. After I mixed some in with his current kibble, he appeared more receptive. Time will tell... he is such chill fella that I'm sure he will get used to it over the next few weeks.As we both go into our golden years. I'll be 40 and he will 10. I asked myself where did the years go? Just like that, we both aged. I hope that this kibble will add to his overall wellness.Here's to you buddy, you've been the best cat ever, all I can do is give my best to him: Lets embrace this next chapter of our lives.No kibble for me though (laughs)I love you buddy. Thank you for being a part of my life. Who rescued who? Great question.This ginger cat did.
Thank you for your feedback
