Default Iams Weight Control Adult Cat Food- net wt. 20 lbs.

Iams understands you want to share many healthy, happy years with your cat. That's why they are committed to support your cat's nutritional needs every step of the way. Only Iams combines the natural goodness of real chicken, lamb, or fish protein with the patented fiber source and carbohydrate system, plus all the vitamins and minerals your cat needs to stay healthy and active throughout life. Animal feeding tests using Association of American Feed Control Officials procedures substantiate that Iams Weight Control Formula for Cats provides complete and balanced nutrition for maintenance. Be sure to measure your cat's food every day to make sure you are not over-feeding your cat. Remember to have clean, fresh water available for your cat at all times. Because Iams Weight Control Cat Food is complete and balanced for maintenance, you do not need to add vitamin or mineral supplements. Iams Weight Control should be fed exclusively. Mixing other foods with it could compromise the effectiveness of this diet. Weight loss for your cat is best achieved under the supervision of a veterinarian. Weight loss in cats should be gradual in order to maintain health. If your cat has not eaten for more than two days in a row, consult your veterinarian. You can expect to notice weight loss on your overweight cat in as little as eight weeks. Pet food only. Made in USA.
Customer Review: Noticed no difference.
We have a 21 pound cat, and for 3 solid months we kept him on a strict diet. The amount they recommended for his size we actually REDUCED a bit and measured it out in a measuring cup daily. He didn't even lose an ounce.
Customer Review: No weight loss noted.
I've got a hefty cat. At 14 lbs, she's definitely on the big-boned side of things. For about a year and a half we had her on this weight-control stuff, feeding her about a 1/2 cup a day as recommended on the packaging. But in that time, we haven't seen any significant weight-loss. About 6 months ago, we switched to the CostCo-brand stuff, and got lazy about measuring out her food and have just refilled her bowl when empty. Now, I suppose it's possible that the CostCo food doesn't taste very good, and that's why she eats less of it, but it seems to serve the same purpose, and it's not like she complains about it. Afterall is said and done, she's still 14 lbs. I don't want to say it doesn't work, because maybe it will for your cat, but it didn't for mine so I wouldn't expect any miracles here. Still, it did serve its primary function (the cat ate it) despite not living up to its secondary function (the cat is still fat) so, 3 stars.
