Hill's Prescription Diet z/d Skin/Food Sensitivities Canned Cat Food

The smell is awful , the texture is rubbery, makes it difficult to mix with other food, and WHY NO SMALL CANS? cats don't eat that much at one time and I don't want to refrigerate it.

We have one cat with allergies, another with sensitive skin, so we feed all four of our cats Z/D dry and canned. The dry is more accepted by our bunch, however the wet is a challenge getting our cats to eat it, even after warming it up a bit and adding enough water to make it a puree' texture, and perhaps half of what We give them will be eaten. The rubbery texture of the food right out of the can baffles us...Science Diet should make this more appealing, and offer smaller cans also. Any leftovers might as well be discarded, as refrigerating this "food" makes it even worse. No doubt the benefits from eating this food are positive. We will ask our vet to find an alternative, and likely won't be purchasing the Z/D wet again.

My 2 cats hate the new formula. It smells horrible, it looks rancid, and it can't be refrigerated. They both loved the old formula and it worked wonders for skin allergies.

PLEASE OFFER THIS WET FOOD IN SINGLE SIZE PORTIONS!!! My kitty has loved this food but like so many other reviews stated, she is not interested once it is refrigerated. This creates a serious problem for me because I need to give her powdered medicine 3x daily for a condition called Hyperesthesia . She takes it with ease with a fresh can but not interested otherwise. PLEASE HELP!!!! She loves the z/d dry food and is doing really well on both. Thank you for your assistance.

My cat was just prescribed this diet and I purchased a half dozen cans, hoping that he'll eat it. The food is incredibly dense and rubbery. He wouldn't touch it. So I mixed it with some water and heated it in the microwave. Still won't touch it. Has been begging me for food, so he won't even eat it when he's hungry. I'm at a loss.

My cat are fussy eater, this is the only can food they like and doesn't upset their stomach. I hope they naintain the formula thank you

My cat likes it. He's had ear infections and very itchy ears, but after switching to this food he's much better. His coat looks great and his ears are healing! No more scratching, redness, hair loss, rashes and vet trips. It's kinda pricey and like everyone says it would be nice to have smaller cans, but oh well. I'll keep buying without complaints, I'm just happy my kitty is better!

I love this brand. This is the only brand my little one can eat due to his sensitive stomach. It pains me to think that there's been a national outage even up to the manufacturing company. Im aware storeges happen but there's animals out there are going without food due to this.

My cat will not eat this. The consistency is disgusting and the smell is horrible. What a waste of money.

Our cat will not eat this food. When we open a fresh can, he will eat one bite. That's it! He will not eat any refrigerated food left in the can later that day or the following day. Very, very disappointed, as our cat has skin sensitivities, and no other remedies have helped very much. Even if he would eat this food, he NEVER eats more than a small portion of wet food at one time. As many reviewers have remarked, PLEASE make wet food available in small cans, as many of us have cats that will not eat leftover refrigerated canned food.

My cat is picky eater begin with, and he has hard time to consume this food. I think he likes chicken flavor, but he hardly can eat. He licks for 30 minutes and he hardly eat 1/5th of can.

Need smaller cans. Please hills read the reviews and make changes. It's a good food mixed with water and toppers. They will eat it But it needs a gravy formula as well. Please make changes and read the reviews!!!

Recently the Z/D wasn’t available from many sellers for a week or two. After it became available again it was obviously a different formula. I open a can every day and again, obviously different. Our cat doesn’t like this kind as much.

SMELLS HORRIBLE, CONSISTENCY OF RUBBER, MY CAT WITH IBD COMPLETELY IGNORED IT.

My cat will only eat it when first opened and not after refrigeration, even if I warm up it. I see many others are asking for smaller cans....this would be WAY better. He also likes variety and won't only eat this...is there any way to offer more flavors or textures? I am not sure if I can make this product work, but I will try and report back later.

Did you recently change the formula for your z/d Skin and Food Sensitivities canned cat food? My cat has been on this for numerous years by vet order. With the last 2-3 cans I've used, he is refusing to eat it. I noticed the food is much more dense then previous cans. In the past, I know changing the formula was tried. The new formula at that time was almost a mush consistency. At that time there were many complaints about cats that refused to eat that formula change. Please, stop making formula changes. Like the name says, cats are on z/d canned food because they have Skin and Food Sensitivities. If the cats didn't have SKIN or FOOD Sensitivities they would NOT be on the formula in the first place. Stop messing with it.

Scooter was diagnosed and the vet gave me a prescription for Z/D. I tried it and Scooter will Not eat all of it, he eats as soon as he is served and his hunger is satiated he refuses any further serving. Second servings from the same can are spit out by Scooter.

My wife bought this for one of our cats with irritable bowel. She wouldn't eat it, my other cat wouldn't eat it, the feral cats at my warehouse wouldn't eat it, the wild ducks wouldn't eat it...I haven't found a creature on earth that will eat this stuff yet.

I was hesitant to buy this due to bad reviews about their cats hating the texture. MY CATS LOVES THIS! She gobbles it up! I mush it in with water too. I can't say the same for the dry food, my cat is not a fan (she hates all dry food so far though).

My cat will eat a half can. The other half I throw away because she won't eat it later after it sits out. She also won't eat it after it has been in the frig, even if I warm it in the microwave or let it sit out a while. It's an awfully expensive food, especially when half is waste. Why no smaller cans?!!!

My cats will only eat a little bit as it is, but if we mix it into a soup with warm water, they love it! Smells bad, but so do all cat food. Would be nice with smaller cans, tho.

My cat Vinny has crossed ice pancreatitis and IBD. He loves the Z/D dry and I have transitioned my other 4 cats onto it as well. For and Rx diet everyone loves it. I was worried about the wet because hes very picky but e looooves it. The other cats too. This food is a life saver for him, literally! My vet said they dont carry the traets anymore because they said every cat they gave them too hated them and they threw away 24 bags. I ordered them and Vinny lives them too. It's nice I have something to give him when the other cats get the regular treats. A smaller can would be a great option as he eats the wet for mealtime but grazes on the dry. Thanks again Hills! You saved my Vinny's life.

Cat will only eat after first opened. It helps with her vomiting but I am throwing away 3/4 of every can. Too expensive to end up throwing it out.

I have three out of five cats that show allergies. We have not yet determined what kind of allergy so we are trying this because they are losing hair or scratching it out at this point. I personally think it all started with the change in their current other brand of cat food changing their ingredients. However, this food is very pasty so I add water to it to help with the ability to chew it. We will see how it works. Some eat it right away and some will eventually eat it after letting it sit there for an hour. There is just great waste with such large cans. Please make 3.5 oz cans!!!!! I will only recommend this if it works for my cats.
