About BLUE Buffalo
Blue Buffalo began with unconditional love and some furry inspiration from a large breed Airedale, Blue. When Blue's family started a pet food company, their vision was clear. They wanted every pet parent to be able to feed their pet with the same care they would feed family. So they created the #1 natural pet specialty food to help furry family members live happy, healthy lives. Of course, they named it after Blue.

Not great for kittens who won’t chew
By Jess on Feb 12, 2021
My kitten has been on this since he could eat hard food, the only problem is that he swallows the little balls whole. He doesnt chew just swallows, i think they’re two small for a cat to eat. So we’ll be switching.

Great for kittens
By Catycat on Dec 30, 2020
My kittens can’t get enough of it. When they were super small I added water to soften it up a little. I just love how healthy they are and their fur is so shiny and soft, I couldn’t be happier. They go nuts when they hear me even touch the bag. I switched over to Blue 10 years ago and haven’t looked back. I always recommend Blue food to family and friends.

New First Home
By LittleBuddy on Jan 20, 2021
I was adopted and needed little kid food and since my older sister eats Blue Buffalo, mom got some for me. I like it and it is good for me. Thanks Chewy for keeping the supply coming in these tough times.

My kitten loves it!
By Janelle on Nov 11, 2020
I've never had a kitten (or cat) so I wanted to make sure he was getting proper nutrition. First dry food I got was Iams for kittens, but Oreo didn't seem to like it. I think it was too hard. I went to a pet store and read all the kitten food packages and decided to try Blue. Absolutely approved by Oreo! :) He gobbles it down like it's his last meal LOL. He digests it well. I'll give this to him until he's ready for cat food.

Good for kittens
By Kathy on Nov 18, 2020
My two kitties were adopted recently, and this was the food they were given so I have continued it. They both love it and with a bit of water added and some wet food, it's good for them as well. Lot's of nutrients for them as they grow.
