My cat is 20 months old, a 7-week-old stray when we found him. Now he's 14 lbs of quite a beautiful tom. I mix a small portion of the Nutra Thrive in with his breakfast each morning and he cleans his dish every time, so I know he's getting it all. If he wasn't such a knothead he'd make a good show cat. I'll keep him on the Nutra Thrive and see if I can tell any substantial difference over the dozen other cats I've raised in my life. But for now, he's a healthy, energetic handsome dude.
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
