Ankhesenamun's Full Review: Iams Original Formula Cat Food
Hi! My name is Scumpy and I am a 2 year old black and gray striped kitty. Don't ask me where my name came from, my new owners are insane! Anyway, I came to this family in a time of stress. It seems that my former owners didn't want me anymore, so they locked me out for good. I wandered aimlessly around the neighborhood until I came to this one house where the other two kitties were mean to me, and so I stayed. I'm just a weirdo! I cried and cried and cried and then jumped into the brook behind the house, and my new owners finally let me in.
They took me to the vet because I had hurt myself during my jump, and then they brought me home. I was closed up in a room so that I could heal and the other kitties didn't beat me up too much. They gave me some cheapo brand store-bought catfood... I don't know what it was called (I can't read!). Boy, was I stinky!!!!!
After this came another visit to the vet (I think they were trying to give me to the vet because I was so smelly:)). The vet told them that the other food was yucky and that they should only give me Iam's Original Formula Cat Food. He said that that would help my stinkiness (turns out I just had gas!). My owners complained and complained the whole ride home in the car because Iam's was more expensive than their yucky cheapo store-brand cat food that they usually bought, but a bag of my "special food" nonetheless appeared in the house the very next morning.
It turns out that this Iam's stuff is very good for my urinary tract health. That's very good because my "brother" Snowflake is an old man and frequently has problems related to this. It's also supposed to support my immune system. This is especially important because I don't want to get sick! It's also great for that other kitty that I live with (Shadow) because we like to beat each other up and he likes to go hunting in the yard (ick!).
What I like the best is that it's pretty tasty! I've been told that the first ingredient in it is chicken. That's much better than the other store-brand food that we bought. The first ingredient in that *other* food was cornmeal. Cornmeal doesn't come into the Iam's list until the fourth or fifth ingredient! I don't know what cornmeal is, but it sure doesn't sound tasty! My Iam's food smells kind of funny, but not as bad as I did!
I really like the shapes! My Iam's Original Formula Cat Food comes in these little circle pellet thingies. I've also had the Adult Formula food, which comes in little triangles. I like the fact that they are big enough that I have no problem keeping them in my mouth (for the most part). You see, when my former owners suddenly set me out into the world, I didn't know how to defend myself. I had to fight many animals (mostly my new owner's other kitties), and I now only have one tooth left! They call me gummy! Anyway, this food is big enough that I can keep most of it into my mouth.
Anyway, that's about everything that I can tell you of the merits of Iam's Original Formula Cat Food. It keeps your immune system healthy, makes your urinary tract work, and it's tasty! It's first ingredient is chicken, and I sure need my meat! The shape and size is nice, and most of all, it makes me less stinky!!!!
