Review: Great Cat Food for Elderly Kitty! - My kitty is doing so much better on Hill's Prescription Diet. She has kidney disease, so I was hoping I'd be able to find something that would benefit her and this really does! She loves the flavor and the kibble bites are nice and tiny for her since her teeth aren't the best. She seems to be feeling much better! The smell isn't overpowering.
Review: Good perscription diet, app needs fine tuning. - My cat loves the dry food. The order app however has made several errors. Be aware.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Cat Food for Elderly Kitty!
*by H***Y on October 4, 2025*

My kitty is doing so much better on Hill's Prescription Diet. She has kidney disease, so I was hoping I'd be able to find something that would benefit her and this really does! She loves the flavor and the kibble bites are nice and tiny for her since her teeth aren't the best. She seems to be feeling much better! The smell isn't overpowering.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good perscription diet, app needs fine tuning.
*by E***R on June 26, 2026*

My cat loves the dry food. The order app however has made several errors. Be aware.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of the best options for cats with CKD - Comes in two flavor varieties
*by R***E on July 1, 2025*

While not inexpensive, Hills K/D is one of the better options for cats with Chronic Kidney Disease as it's low in protein and phosphorus. Our cat stopped eating the K/D dry but started eating it again about six months later. Hills has two flavor varieties of this food so if they don't like this flavor, they can try the other one. Hills also makes a sampler kit with samples of all of their wet and dry foods for you to try. It sells for around $25.
