I've bought recently this dental dry food for 2 of my cats. Both of them don't like it. It's not as bad as Hills Science Chicken for Mature Sterilised Adult. As this food both cats are avoiding at all costs. This dental bites are quite big so my 15 years old cat doesn't want to take at all. Younger cat 11 year old one does crunch them unhappily but only to avoid eating the other crunchies: tiny bits of dry food for mature cat.15kg of food and cats are preferring to stay hungry. Disaster!

Cats love them!
I used to buy this for my cat as she lost teeth in an accident at a young age and vet advised them. She loved them and ended up just on these chunky biscuits. We sadly lost her last year aged 17... We now buy them for our 2 new male cats but mix them with other biscuits. Both like them but one will pick them out with his paw to eat first!!

Appear to do the job, even to a sceptic
Being sceptical of this type of product our vet gave a small sample pack to try. Cats enjoyed them and could see that they were actually crunching up the biscuits as designed and not just eating whole . Follow-up dental checks seem to show these are having a positive effect. Expensive and the cats do seem to go off them when the pack has been open and used for a while, so best when fresh and kept air-tight. For best effect serve these separately AFTER the cats have eaten their main meal.

Did nothing for my cats teeth
My cats teeth got worse on this diet.
He enjoyed the biscuits but his tartar and gum inflammation got much worse.
Thankfully I was keeping an eye on it and have managed to reverse the build up with regular brushing.
Do not trust that these biscuits are doing the job!

Excellent
Our cat had some teeth removed in 2017. Our vet recommended hills prescription diet feline t/d dental care to prevent further tooth decay and plaque. Had his yearly check last week and the vet said there is no plaque, his teeth are healthy and he will not need another dental. Excellent.

Cat won't eat any other biscuit now
I have fed my cat dry food for most of her life to try and keep her teeth in good shape as wet food used to make them bad. However after several years of biscuits she did need a clean and the vet recommended this diet. She loves it and her teeth look great despite being 13. After she had been on this diet for a while I tried switching her back to her old food and she wouldn't touch it (she used to love it) so now she only has t/d.

Cat still enjoys after 5 years
The most amazing thing about this is that it is all my cat eats. I thought he would eat it for a bit and then get bored and go off it, as he was always fussy when he had a wet food diet. He has now had nothing but this (and occasional dental/hairball treats) for 5 years straight and he still tucks in with gusto, Makes life very easy, and a great price on here too. It was twice as much from the vets.

Best dental care food
My cats absolutely prefer this to any type of dried food and when I mix with other varieties (as recommended by vet as it is high calorie) they munch through this first. It is not cheap but is very effective so I will keep buying it and hopefully their teeth and gums will benefit.

Best Dental Diet at Best Price
I've tried several brand of dental diet but I believe this is the best one. I feed this to my four cats now, on previous food two had to have their teeth cleaned. I mix a small amount of meat into their meals sometimes but they will eat this on it's own also. I haven't found the product for sale cheaper than zooplus buying the 2 x 5kg pack.

Saved an operation
Was advised that my three year old cat would be likely to need to be anaesthetised at his next appointment so that his teeth could be cleaned. Vet recommended t/d to stop them from getting worse but advised that it would not clean what was already there. This was wrong, however, as his teeth have improved so much that he no longer needs the operation. Very happy and will continue to use this product.

It works!
This food really does work at keeping your cats teeth clean; my vet thought I brushed my cats teeth when he gave him his annual check up but I told him no, he eats t-d, so it really does the job. Both my cats love it.

Superb food
Bought this for my cat who is very prone to plaque and gingivitis. It worked really well, and his oral hygiene really improved. He also seems to love the taste.

My cat wants nothing else!
This is a very good food. Many of our cats have used it. When our old cat starting having tooth trouble we started mixing T/D with her other food, and she started chewing properly again. Now we only have two cats and they get this from the very start. They usually pick out the T/D chunks and eat them first, because they're so yummy! And none of our cats who eat this have ever had a tooth problem again.

No more gum problems
Our 3 year old cat's annual check up last year found she had mild gingivitis from plaque. The vet advised us to use this food, but unfortunately when we tried them our cat went on a hunger strike rather than eat them. After a couple of weeks we tried again though, and suddenly our cat decided to eat it! A few weeks ago we had another annual check up and happily his teeth are just fine now! Sometimes it takes a bit of effort to make him eat them, but this food is definitely a must!

INVALUABLE!
To maintain healthy gums and clean teeth is absolutely essential. However, do not serve this food alone and it would not be a complete diet. I usually mix 20% of this with the normal kibble. From kittens with the change of milk teeth to seniors of 10 years, TD is irreplaceable for keeping teeth and gums healthy!

Excellent Value For Prescription Food
Our vet recommended this product for our cat to help protect her teeth and keep them clean. We mix it together with other dry food as the fat content within the TD diet is quite high. Her teeth and weight seem fine and we save a lot purchasing from Zooplus rather than the vet. Quick delivery and always in stock.

Cheap for a vet food
Our vet recommended this feed to us for protecting and cleaning cat's teeth. We mix it with another dry food because TD contains a lot of fat. Her teeth and weight both seem good and we save a lot of money because we buy it at zooplus instead of at the vet. Fast delivery and it's always in stock.

end of problems with tartar
We've been giving this dry food for a good few years to our 2 cats (8 and 9 years). We were recommended this by the vet to 'descale' the teeth. The shapes of the kibble means that the cats can't swallow them whole. forcing them to chew their food and clean their teeth! The younger cat has never had problems with her teeth, but she's been having this as a preventative measure anyway, so maybe that's why her teeth are so good :)
