Hill's Science Diet FAQs
What is the difference between Hill's Science Diet and Hill's Prescription Diet?
Hill's Science Diet is formulated to meet the nutritional needs of healthy pets throughout their various life stages. Hill's Prescription Diet, on the other hand, is designed to address specific medical conditions and should only be fed under the direct recommendation of your veterinarian. For more information, take a read through our article all about Prescription Diets for Pets.
How do I switch my pet to a new Hill’s food?
To avoid digestive upset, it's best to gradually introduce a new food over a seven-day period. Start by mixing a small amount of the new food with your pet's current food, and gradually increase the proportion of the new food while decreasing the old food each day. For step by step guidance, take a read through How to Introduce a New Food to Your Pet.
How much should I feed my pet?
Feeding amounts can vary from one pet to another. You can find a feeding guide on the packaging of all Hill's pet foods, which serves as a helpful starting point. For the most accurate advice, it's always best to consult your veterinarian or our Pet Circle Vet Squad, who can recommend an appropriate amount based on your pet's specific health needs and condition.
