    Hills' prescription diet - where do you buy?

    OK, anyone got any cheap online sites they use to buy this? Every time I go off it and onto cheaper food the cats react badly and I end up on the s/d for a couple of weeks - we usually feed them c/d for maintenance.

    i buy mine from thevetshed
    We buy the 3.85kg K/D for our cats it + postage is $61.80 they've been good. the did stuff our order up over christmas but sent us replacement plus a reply paid slip for the wrong food. thats the cheapest i've found thus far from all my googleing - it is made harder by it being a prescription food KWIM? i'll see what else i can find as every 6 months i see what prices are like for the cheapest price. but the one we buy now has been the cheapest for 9 months.

    Ours went on the prescription diet..and I bought a whole slab of the presription wet food! Of course turned the nose up, and a waste of money.

    Have you tried just the sensitive stomach by Hills? We switched to this after using the prescription as it was available at the big major pet store. Our poor little baby has issues and has some food intolerance so will throw up on any other dry food.

    yeah, we tried the normal hills stuff but gave problems - the c/d is for urinary tract, both of my boys have had crystals a couple of times, one of them had to be catheratised

    so the vet has advised to stay on c/d - we still have to give s/d occaisionally when the cat hasn't been drinking enough.
