Kitten Weaning to 6 Months of Age: Feed 3 cans per three pounds of body weight per day.
Kitten 6 to 12 Months of Age: Feed 2 can per three pounds of body weight per day.
• Feed according to the age, size and activity of your cat. Feed at room temperature and refrigerate unused portion. Always provide plenty of fresh water.
• These recommendations are guidelines only, and should be adjusted upon your cat's health, body condition, life stage, sex, activity and climatic temperature.
Gradually transition by adding a small amount of American Journey wet food to your cat's current diet, reducing the amount of the current diet and increasing the amount of American Journey for 7 - 10 days until the transition is complete. This will allow your cat's digestive system to acclimate to the new food without causing any tummy upset. We recommend the following protocol:
Days 1-2: 75% old food with 25% new food
Days 3-4: 50% old food with 50% new food
Days 5-7: 25% old food with 75% new food
Days 8+: 100% new food
American Journey is exclusively made for and distributed by Chewy. We work closely with production partners to create and develop our own recipes and oversee production to ensure it adheres to our strict quality standards and AAFCO guidelines. American Journey Wet Cat Food is manufactured in our partner facilities, located in Kansas, USA. Do the cans contain BPA? No, these cans are BPA non-intent.
How do I open the can? The cans have pull tabs for easy opening (like a can of soup).
What do I do with leftover food in the can? Cover the top of the can and place in the refrigerator. For maximum taste and freshness, serve the leftover food within 3 days of opening.
What if my cat doesn’t like the food when it’s cold? Place food in a microwave safe dish and cover. Microwave for 15-20 seconds. Stir the food to ensure its heated evenly. Before serving, smooth food with a utensil to increase your pet’s ability to lap up their food. How do I best serve my cat their food? Empty desired amount into your pet’s serving dish and smooth out the food. Discard uneaten room temperature food after 3 hours.
It’s important to pay attention to your cats’ behavior as you try new proteins. Some cats are picky and only like one specific protein such as fish or poultry. Once you understand what your cat likes, it’s best to stick to food purchases within that protein family in order to increase enjoyment of the food by your cat. Where are the ingredients sourced? American Journey sources ingredients from reputable suppliers in the US and worldwide, dependent upon availability. What is natural flavor? Natural flavors are made from components of ingredients that are naturally derived and processed into concentrated flavors. Natural flavors are often used to enhance the taste or aroma of products.
How Do I transition my cat to American Journey Canned Cat Food. How do I transition between different American Journey Canned Cat food formula? If you plan on transitioning to a new American Journey canned cat food flavor, we recommend mixing the food gradually for 7-10 days until the transition is complete. For sensitive cats, we recommend a 10-14-day transition.

When I serve this brand and can, it never goes to waste. I love the consistency, it isn't dry and it's the perfect balance of gravy and bits.
Our 6-month-old kittens go bananas for this stuff... we fostered kittens for many years and often found the minced format is a top favorite. Price is good and ingredients balance seems fine.
I have 10 cats and only two will eat this. It is going slowly but but eventually will be gone and I will not buy again.
I was looking for an alternative to the expensive Royal Canin Kitten-minced. Royal Canin is very high quality, but expensive. I have had a lot of trouble finding minced kitten food (kittens preference), as most appear to be a pate. This food is a lot paler (think milky) than that of it's competitor. The kitten sniffed it walked away and begin eating the adults Tiny Tiger Cat Food (also by Chewy). Tiny Tiger offer a Kitten Pate which our kitten will eat, but only after going after the adults minced gravy rich food. Overall I think it may be a preference thing for our kitten. He just doesn't like the taste of American Journey. I was just hoping that since Tiny Tiger and American Journey were both made by Chewy we might have a win. No such luck, We'll be heading back to the Tiny Tiger Kitten Pate or tough it out for Kittens first year with the expensive Royal Canin minced bits (they can't stay a Kitten forever). Hope your kittens aren't as picky as mine. The remaining cans will go to our local rescue group.
I knew she would like this because I feed my other cat the adult version if this and he loves it too. She licks her bowl so clean it looks and if it has just been washed.
The minced chicken looked good but there was NO gravy! For that reason I give this kitten food a 3 stars instead of my usual 5. When the kitten food doesn't have the advertised gravy, the kittens tend to gravitate towards my adult cats' food (that have plenty of gravy).
I just picked these up at random because I like to try out different foods for my two cats to give them variety and see what they like. One is not a picky eater AT ALL and will eat anything in sight, the other is very high maintenance and such a Princess and won't eat regular treats/food. For some reason, this wet food really works for both of them. They both eat it very willingly and love it. I'm sure it's not the same for everyone. My high maintenance girl is my first born and she is the reason I have had to trash random food but this one seems to be a winner...for now
Bought this this last delivery thinking suzy would like it . It said chicken in gravy , she loves chicken and loves gravy. this does not look like heavy but a very thick something .nothing like gravy. It's not what I call minced , it's small round nuggets with goo . She won't eat it, have tried several times and now I have 20 more cans . I didn't want to give it a star BUT no choice. You should not have to give it a star. To me a star ,even 1 star, indicates the item is ok. Live & learn , guess I'll l toss it .
My kittens loved this kitten food. They cleaned their plates. I will definitely buy again.
I have a bottle fed baby who is picky about her big girl food but she loved this!!!
