Hill's Prescription Diet Feline z/d Food Sensitivities

best

My cat started to feel better with this diet as he has allergies to lots of food

I have had a hard time getting my cats off this food, they had pretty much refused to eat anything else. It would have been great if it worked for my cat, 5yr old black d shorthair, with extreme food allergies. I was hoping the whole hydrolyzed protein etc. would work, since the d/d food is missing. Unfortunately it didn't, If your cat has a chicken or rice allergy I wouldn't recommend this food especially since it is very difficult to get them to stop eating it.

My cat thinks every pellet is a treat. It’s weird but he’s broken in to the plastic tub I keep it in numerous times. And it works from an allergy perspective - he doesn’t rip his skin and the litter tray is almost pleasant!

Recommended by Vet to cure our female cat continually scratching her face and neck which was resulting in bleeding and scars. Within 1 week of using she stopped completely. She has an allergy to protein and this product uses a special technique that breaks down normal protein into microscopic particles. It may not be the tastiest food for a cat but she got used to it. We have to be careful that she does not sneak in any other protein (treats like turkey, milk etc) as she starts scratching again.

My kitty was rejected by his first owner for his poorly tummy. He came to us with diarrhoea, bleeding, he could not tolerate any other specialised foods, cooked/boiled meats, nothing. After much trial and error, this food has been a blessing. No more tummy issues. It works wonders for him. I don't know what we would do without it.

I would highly recommend this food, our cat was sensitive to normal food and this has completely transformed him, however , we have to order it elsewhere as the delivery service, the company use is poor.

I'm slightly confused as the first bag that I got worked very well, my cat stopped vomiting and seemed to really like this food... About a month later he developed severe diarrhea (which he does with most foods) and started disliking it. It was almost like he developed an allergy to the food... So I'm trying the D/D as it has more fibre and I have found that he responds well to a high fibre diet. Hope this works better for other cats :-/

Our cat was fed on sachet wet food. He always vomited but it became worse whatever food we fed him. After investigations and scans negative physical problems results. Our vet recommended Hills z/d. At first our cat refused it but after trying it he liked it. Vomiting reduced so now it only occurs once a fortnight sometimes longer. As we started using z/d at the time negative remarks appeared we do not know which formula we are using. Formula is as on Hills website so we assume it's the new one

Has worked for over two years for my two Birmans who prior to switching to this food would suffer with bad skin problems, I've just recorded and noticed the formulation has changed and it doesn't refer to allergy and skin anymore but instead states sensitive I hope it still is effective

Adopted a cat who was sick daily and really struggled to digest anything properly, tried various foods but on vets advise this one has really done the trick, she digests it all and can even now have the odd meat treat without being sick. Happy cat, happy owner.

One of my cats was licking his belly and the inside of his back legs for 3 years which due to circumstances i put down to him being a stressed cat and then i saw another vet and she said it could be his food. Well what a difference !!!! 3 months on his fur is growing back and you couldn't tell.

I've ways hated Hills. Ropey food, over subsidised for vets. I developed a cat allergy and got a pedigree vs my usual rescue mog and put him on high quality meat/fish food. About 14 months old he gets all allergic and the vet put him on z/d wet as he's always been high protein wet food. Well, it stopped the reaction but the wet food was dreadful - I thought it looked and smelled disgusting and so did the cat. I ordered the dry as an alternative and I swear my cat thought all his Christmases had come at once - no reaction and a clean bowl within minutes every time. So I highly recommend dry z/d, but only if your cat needs specialist food.

hi this is the only food my 2 year old tabby can have. it is very good as he has a very sensitive stomach.

My Kiko (12) suffered for 3 years from a terrible itching disease and had huge clawed bloody spots on her ears, head and chin. It always began with little scabby bits but within days they became large areas with scraped wounds. She started getting an antibiotic injection every three months and cortisone injections to reduce inflammation. The combination is ESSENTIAL, because if only cortisone is used the bacteria multiply and things get worse! After these treatments the wounds heal and the itching goes away for about 2-3 months. Our vet also recommended Hills 'z/d' and what can I say: Kiko is symptom-free for nine months. The food is so tasty her sister eats it with enthusiasm (they've both put on a nice bit of weight since we started this diet). The success and full acceptance with my cats totally justifies the high price of this food for me (zooplus is actually the cheapest supplier I've found). The protein in this food is ground so small that the body no longer recognises it as an allergen. I would definitely recommend this strongly! 100% satisfied!!! Big thanks to Hill's!

I have two cats aged about 10 years, and one has suddenly started to lick himself up the abdomen, thighs and legs until he was basically naked. I originally got this from the vet, but it's much cheaper here. The transition from the last food to this one was smooth, and the fur is growing back! Very highly recommended!!

I had bought this food for my old cat lady and she very happily devoured it. Unfortunately she has such a strong food allergy that she even had symptoms with the Low Allergen ones that we had to switch to the Ultra Allergen Free food from Hills. However our experience with other cats tells us that it's a super food for cats with sensitive stomachs or allergies.

Sadly I also have a cat at home who shows symptoms of allergies when I give him the wrong food, including a lot of itching and licking/scratching, sometimes until he bleeds. This food was a great help. The kibble is very small, so he tends to gobble it down without really chewing it. However, he clearly loves it and my other cat will also meow at me for more once it's all gone.

Our 13 year old suddenly began to lick her belly so much that it went bald, and then started on the inside of her thighs, but she didn't seem to have any signs of illness. My vet recommended switching to this food, and only feeding her Hill's - so no more cat milk, cream etc. She immediately took to this food, and her obsessive cleaning got less and less each week. Eventually the hairs started growing back on her tummy and thighs, and now the baldness has almost gone completely. We'll definitely keep feeding our old lady this food.

I'm so happy you added this product here. I used to go to the vet every month because he never wanted to sell me more than one pack. I have one cat with allergies but other one is perfectly normal- still have to give them same food. So far the best product, must be tasty because he can't stop eating :)

My cat has had allergies for a few years now, and when I found this food, it was the best solution! Of course, along with his monthly vaccine, which he never misses... What I’ve noticed is that every time I buy (and it’s not a small amount...), I’ve been able to compare and see that year after year, the price goes up by €10 each time!! What madness is this? At what price can we keep feeding our beloved companions? I know things are tough, because prices keep rising, but this just seems unbelievable to me!!

This is the most effective product of this kind.

After trying dozens of different brands, types, and flavours... after a while the cat would start feeling unwell again. The vet recommended this dry food and we've solved the problem! Now he's much better, his fur is thick and soft again, and he always eats it happily!

I bought it for my Leo because it's the hypoallergenic variety. In the end, both cats eat it. They love it!!!!!!! I recommend it.

Kibble very well suited to Michka's digestive problem.

After getting a second opinion from another vet, we were advised to try Hill's Prescription Diet Feline z/d Food Sensitivities Original. I can only speak highly of this food! The wounds have been completely gone for months now, without any medication. My advice to anyone with a cat suffering from unexplained skin problems: give this food a try and trust your own instincts. Not every vet approaches things the same way, and this has changed my cat's life!

Boris only eats this food, he's a healthy and happy kitty.

It really helped our cat a lot.

All three of our cats really like it. The one who needs it most has only been taking it for a short time, so we still have to see if it will have any positive effects on his constant licking.

I've tried a lot of monoprotein foods for my cat, who was diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease after an ultrasound (steroid-dependent). Even though I usually hate dry food with lots of grains, this time I gave in. Thanks to steroid therapy plus this food, the inflammation has calmed down—probably the steroids did most of the work, but the cat eats it and, most importantly, has gained weight. Other wet foods, even the expensive and supposedly better ones, just made her bloated. I also added Animonda Mono Protein Turkey wet food.

My cat has been eating this food for several years now because of a food allergy, and it agrees with her and she eats it well, even though it's always the same.

My cat loves it, I was worried he wouldn't tolerate it since he was used to the chicken versions.

Our cat with stomach problems tolerates the kibble very well, no longer vomits and is energetic again.

I’ve ordered this product several times before and our cat has always eaten it happily, but since the last order on 07/06, she’s completely refusing the food. Something must have changed with this batch.

My cat tolerates it well and the portion information was helpful.

Soft kibble that’s really suited my pet, and the size of the pieces is just perfect.

My cat has intestinal issues, and the vet prescribed these kibbles. Since then, no discomfort at all—my cat handles them really well, her coat is shiny and she's in great shape.

We use this food on our vet’s recommendation, our cat likes it and it’s good for her.

We thought this was a real discovery for our British Longhair, who used to have diarrhoea all the time! His stools went back to normal, except for the occasional upset when we gave him something different, then it would go wrong again. But with this as his regular kibble, it made a huge difference—so much better for our little one! He also liked the taste! Definitely recommended if your cat is very sensitive!
