Two Cats same issue. The price is blowing my mind. So are the results
k/d Feline Kidney Care with Chicken Dry Cat FoodBoth of my cats, one 14 the other 15, were diagnosed with kidney disease about five months ago. I was told both needed a diet change immediately. This didn't go well. Both seemed to have wildly different tastes. It would seem one would settle in on a brand and then all at once reject it. This has been staggering to my wallet and mental health. I've got caches of the wrong catfood I stocked up on as soon as one seemed to like it only to have it rejected immediately after I made a bulk purchase. Trust me when i say this. Ive been through them all
... Read more at this point. Wet food dry food they've dabbled in everything in the prescription diet market. I became obsessed with the freshness of my cats foods my refrigerator and freezer are full of different cat foods. I was convinced for awhile it was staleness that was ruining it for them. Vaccum sealing all that. None of it wasn't making a difference. There was vomiting there was starvation sometimes stretching into three day bouts of no eating. I tried syringe feeding. Always a battle. Over the five months since my cats kidney disease diagnosis I personally have taken up smoking again, I have frequently cried in my car before work especially on days after my boys hadn't eaten much for three days. Ive broken down a couple of times and cried in front of students. My cats are my best friends.Then about two months ago out of the blue one cat settled in on the tuna and stewed vegetables canned food. That's all he's eaten since. One month ago my 14 year old cat decided he liked it too. Not only do they both like it but at this point both cats have now started to once again gain weight. Their fur feels better. They're running around and doing stuff again. It's been nothing short of miraculous. Here I was picking out coffins online crying myself to sleep night after night and suddenly it's like it was again five years ago. The truth is I would pay anything for these results. Im glad it's available but at this point caring for my ailing mom and the 160 bucks I'm going to be paying for hopefully ever to keep these guys fed sometimes I get worried about myself. The peace of mind the kd tuna and stewed vegetables has given me though is priceless. Anything for my boys I love these guys more than i ever thought I could love anything. The extra time means everything to me thanks KD.
Nothing diet or prescription in it, nothing good for cats in this chemical laden extruded road kill/ diseased animals
t/d Dental Care Feline Chicken Dry Cat FoodKibble is bad for cats and dogs fullstop. Nowhere near enough moisture (10% only - canned or raw has 80%). There is NO kibble that will clean teeth, none. There are no biscuits to clean human teeth, right? Dried seaweed (sticks to teeth and dissolves plaque) or toothpaste for cats and dogs. 'Prescription' is just a name Hill's use on their products, there is no medicine in this product and you do not need a prescription to buy it. Vets are paid to promote this 'food' and it certainly generates work for vets with dealing with rotten teeth, diabetes, urinary issues, cancer, allergies etc. So do your pet a favour and watch via YouTube 'Petfooled' and start your education so that your pet THRIVES rather than just SURVIVES.

Felines don't eat rice or carrots
k/d Feline Kidney Care with Chicken Dry Cat FoodWe bought the Hills Kidney Care vegetable and tuna stew. Anyone who thinks that putting carrots and rice into a carnivores diet and then charging through the nose for it is ridiculous, and doesn't deserve your money. Yes they are supposed to have a lower protein diet, no, carrots and rice don't do the trick. You end up with a whole bunch of useless food that you paid for that the cat won't eat. Why Trust your ill loved ones diet with a company that has no idea what your loved one needs?
My cat really likes it
t/d Dental Care Feline Chicken Dry Cat FoodThe vet suggested that we begin feeding our cat t/d dental mix as he was starting to show signs of gingivitis. The biscuits are larger than most other cat biscuits we've tried in the past. My cat can be a bit picky but loves t/d. His teeth have been looking a lot cleaner too!

Cats hate the food
k/d Feline Kidney Care with Chicken Dry Cat FoodIt's hard enough when you have a sick kitty with kidney failure and then we try and force them to eat food they don't like. I've had 3 cats with kidney failure and I had to syringe feed...( which stresses out an already sick cat ), the kd canned food to them so they would get some nutrition. All of my cats hated the food. They need something better tasting for the poor kitties who are already suffering with kidney failure. If I ever get another cat I will definitely do the raw food diet so my cat doesn't end up having to eat something so awful.
Great for cats teeth and they love it.
t/d Dental Care Feline Chicken Dry Cat FoodMy Kitty has been on T/D Feline dry food ever since she was one year old, she is now 6.
I don't give her this as her daily everyday dry food as she is on Hills Science Hairball control food, she only has 7 pieces in the morning and 5 at night and it has done wonders to her teeth, gums and breath.
Love Hills Science Diet food/s, but they can be very expensive.
The only dry food my cat will eat.
t/d Dental Care Feline Chicken Dry Cat FoodI hsve been giving this to my adopted cat for more than 3 years. Her teeth are beautiful
Even vets comment. They fed thst to her at Lort Smith where i adopted her from.
Lives up to its claims
t/d Dental Care Feline Chicken Dry Cat FoodWe began feeding our cat t/d a few months ago, hoping to improve his teeth and gums. Our vet said this food works and she was quite right. Our kitty loves the kibble, has a beautiful coat, and is in fine health. His teeth and gums look so much better! We feed him some meat too but t/d is his main food.
Why change the recipe of CD cat biscuits
t/d Dental Care Feline Chicken Dry Cat FoodHave been using Hills CD Bladder health for my cat for the last 3 years and had no problems until I purchased a new bag last week. I did notice the packaging had changed but was not concerned until my cat would not even look at them. Rang the vet and they were told the packaging had changed but the recipe was the same.yeah right tell my cat that.7 days later and still will not touch them.
I did get hold of some wet Royal Canin Urinary S/O and he seem to like it so I have order some dry biscuits in that brand (fingers crossed.by by Hills)

Saving my cat's life
k/d Feline Kidney Care with Chicken Dry Cat FoodI have a 17yo diabetic cat who suffered acute kidney failure a few weeks back. After switching from the m/d to the k/d, her kidneys are not only back to where they were before the episode, but improved! Her urea and creatinine levels (and phosphates, which were terrible before) have stabilised in the normal range, and for the first time in months (even after we started insulin therapy for the diabetes) she's drinking and urinating a normal amount rather than flooding the litter box daily.
Suggestions for owners of picky eaters: she very much
... Read more prefers the fish cans to the chicken cans, but I've found that fluffing up the chicken a bit makes her enjoy it more- and she can't get enough of the kibble. I know it's pricey, but considering both the financial and emotional toll of having her in hospital during her initial episode, it works out to be even money in preventing this from happening again soon.
Be aware that this can cause weight gain and tooth decay??
t/d Dental Care Feline Chicken Dry Cat FoodI have given this to both of my cats for many years as the older one (who has now passed away) had some problems keeping his teeth clean. It was recommended by the vet to try and prevent having to have dental surgery.. and it did. Its a good tasting product .. both my cats loved it. At one time it was the only dry food i gave them. Then one day when i was buying a new packet the vet nurse told me not to give too much to them as it was coated with a hard coating of sugar to make it harder to crunch down on therefore making them use the teeth pro
... Read moreperly. She said using it too much can cause weight gain and lead to diabetes and .. tooth decay!!. After that i stopped using it and my younger cat had to have dental surgery .. put her back on it but reduced the amount i gave her to just a few (5) balls in the morning and another 5 at night like a snack for her. I give her a holistic brand for the rest of the day as well as the 'wet' meat food morning and night. She seems happy and i feel its a good alternative instead of stopping it all together.
My cats love it and it works
t/d Dental Care Feline Chicken Dry Cat FoodI've been feeding all my cats T/D and have so far avoided $400+ teeth cleaning bills. One slightly inflamed gum that has not progressed in years. I just got a new kitten and he prefers Science Diet to special kitten food. I'm at odds with the breeder who insists on another brand I can't find, but he's happy and I have reluctant agreement that it's ok for kittens. I buy the biggest bag and they eat it happily

Beats spending money on dental surgery!
t/d Dental Care Feline Chicken Dry Cat FoodI adopted a 3 year old cat from the human society six months ago, who had many issues that i was not told about. He became very ill shortly after I got him, had ulcers in his mouth and was very weak.He was diagnosed with feline herpes virus which also is followed by gingivitis. Turns out the gingivitis was making his virus which is life long flare up very badly causing him to be very ill all the time. It was not until recently when I got a second opinion by a new vet, that I was told about his gingivitis and that it was making him sick all th
... Read moree time. His vet prescribed T/D because with his illness he had previously I could not afford at the time to get his teeth professionally cleaned at the cost $347 and two teeth removed at $400. Within 3 weeks time his teeth are looking wonderful, no more getting sick. It actually saved the two back teeth the vet thought she may have to remove. This is the only thing I feed him and he loves it. It is costly but it is well worth the money it does much more then it is suppose to and it beats spending money on dental surgery or two cleanings a year. I would recommend this food to anyone who may have a cat or dog with dental disease or issues. It's something that should be tried for people who cannot get near their cat with a tooth brush, or who have a cat with mild gingivitis.
Good results, but too expensive.....
t/d Dental Care Feline Chicken Dry Cat FoodI have six cats. None of them will eat raw bones for their dental health, so I add a couple of handfuls of t/d to their usual biscuits once per day. I have been doing this for 8 years and my oldest two cats are only now getting to the stage where they are going to need a dental in the coming months, but my youngest four (aged between 4 and 6) all have perfect teeth. I do not agree with dry only diets, and I don't believe any of my cats like the t/d that much that they'd be happy on these biscuits only. They are far too expensive and they c
... Read moreertainly are not an option for multi-cat households except an addition to the more reasonably priced biscuits. They definitely do the job. Overpriced. Only available in small and extra small bags, should have larger, more reasonably priced bags for multi-cat households.
They just can't get enough, and it's healthy!
t/d Dental Care Feline Chicken Dry Cat FoodThis food is designed to specifically maintain your cats oral health while also meeting all required nutrients. They love the taste and it's healthy for them to eat, I love getting it for my cats knowing they aren't eating anything unhealthy and they love the taste!
Healthy and cats love it!
Tends to be on the expensive side but well worth the purchase
Questions & Answers
Our Hills Prescription biome cat food medicine is being delivered during a Queensland heatwave. I have been trying to get an email reply about confirmation of appropriate delivery instructions accompanying the parcel when it was given to Australia Post.
I have sent a message to Australia Post, please note:
The contents of our delivery from Pet Barn MacGregor is Hills Prescription medication to be kept in temperature below 35°C while stored/transported. It is biome bet prescription and any temp above 38°C storage will severely compromise the effectiveness of the medication.
How is this prescription item being stored at Redbank postal facility and how is it being transported during a heatwave in the postal vans?
I have tried hills kd cat food and my cat will not eat it ..or only lick it for a small taste. Can you offer any suggestions on how I can get her to eat this food? The vet recommended this product and I know it is a good quality of food. Help please.
Have you tried warming it a little? Often cats will respond better to that. I had to try a few brands before my boy settled on the Hill's though, there are other options including preparing your own food, recipes are around if you search..
