IAMS Proactive Health Indoor Dry Cat Food — Salmon, 7 lb | Real Salmon, Hairball Control & L‑Carnitine

IAMS Proactive Health Indoor Dry Cat Food in Salmon is a veterinarian-recommended adult formula that uses real salmon as the first ingredient to support indoor cats' muscle tone, digestion, coat health, and healthy weight.

Built from IAMS' decades of nutritional research, this 7 lb bag delivers 100% complete and balanced nutrition designed specifically for indoor adult cats. The recipe centers on high-quality salmon protein, a targeted fiber blend that helps reduce hairballs, and L-carnitine to support fat-burning and lean muscle. Formulated without artificial flavors or fillers, the formula follows AAFCO definitions of natural ingredients and pairs targeted nutrition with taste cats enjoy.

How does this food support a cat’s digestive health and stool quality?

This recipe includes a specialized fiber blend plus prebiotics that nourish intestinal cells and promote better nutrient absorption. Improved digestion helps many cats reach optimal stool consistency within about 10 days of switching.

• Proprietary fiber blend with beet pulp to manage hair and transit time
• Prebiotics to feed beneficial gut bacteria and aid absorption
• Formulated for measurable stool improvement in roughly 10 days

Will this formula help control hairballs and shedding?

The indoor recipe targets hairball formation with a fiber mix designed to capture and move ingested hair through the digestive tract. Regular feeding as directed can reduce visible hairballs and support a cleaner litter box.

• Beet pulp and soluble fibers help reduce hairball formation
• High-quality protein supports skin and coat health for less shedding
• Daily use helps manage hair-related digestive issues over time

Can IAMS Indoor Salmon help my cat maintain a healthy weight?

Yes — the formula features L-carnitine to encourage burning fat for energy while delivering balanced protein to preserve lean muscle. Combined with portion control and exercise, it supports gradual weight maintenance rather than rapid loss.

• L-carnitine to support fat metabolism and lean mass
• High-quality salmon protein for sustained energy and satiety
• Balanced caloric density tailored to indoor adult cats
