Overview
Purina Pro Plan Weight Management is a Chicken and Rice dry cat food for adult cats, formulated with 20 percent less fat and live probiotics, sold in a 7 pound bag aimed at supporting weight loss while maintaining muscle.
This is a weight control formula, not a general maintenance food, so the reduced fat content and muscle-preserving protein level are the point rather than a side feature. A steady 5,000 purchases in the past month suggests it is a repeat buy for owners managing an overweight cat long term.
