Pets can be sensitive to sudden changes in their diets. For this reason, it is extremely important to follow a gradual transition plan to best support your pet's health and product effectiveness. It is recommended to follow a 7 to 14-day transition plan before exclusively feeding your pet a new food. Cats will often refuse mixed diets, so we recommend adding the new food to a separate bowl from the old food. For a 14-day transition plan, start by mixing 75% of your pet's current diet with 25% of the new diet on Days 1-4. On Days 5-8, mix 50% of the current diet with 50% of the new diet. On Days 9-11, mix 25% of the current diet with 75% of the new diet. On Days 12-14, you can feed your pet the new food exclusively. Ask your Veterinarian about the best way to transition your pet to a new food.
| Transition Day | Current Diet | New Diet |

| Days 1-4 | 75% | 25% |
| Days 5-8 | 50% | 50% |
| Days 9-11 | 25% | 75% |

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.

Life saver
By Ashley on Nov 16, 2020
First and foremost, my girl is the most finicky cat on the planet. She has hated almost all kidney foods on the market. The texture of the K+M is weird, I will say that.. but it’s the first kidney food that she will eat without me having to add fancy feast. I do add a little bit of water to smooth the texture out, pop it in the microwave for a few seconds and she goes to town!

Better than what the vet sells
By Livie on Oct 25, 2020
I’m so happy I found this food for my cat! Sadly, she was recently diagnosed with early stage kidney disease. The vet recommended changing her diet to low protein and low phosphorus foods. I bought wet and dry food from my vet (Hills) but the ingredients were pretty gross (corn, pork liver, pork fat.) After doing a bit of research online I came across this. Not only are the ingredients so much more healthy but the protein and phosphorus levels are lower! We just got it in the mail today and the consistency is kinda weird, but my cat gobbled it up! Hope she continues to like it!

High Hopes were dashed
By Topcat1952 on Nov 2, 2020
My one cat who was just diagnosed with early stage kidney disease has always loved Blue Buffalo can and dry foods. Unfortunately, when given this food she said "I'll pass!". She eats the K+M dry with some Forti-Flora on it but the canned is no-go. Way too thick and requires 4-5 tablespoons of water to get a consistency to eat but that, apparently, removes any flavor it might have. Had to switch her to Hill's K/D can

Not palatable
By MissMamaCat on Nov 9, 2020
I’ve been feeding her the KM dry and she loves it. I figured the wet would be a nice treat and a way to get a bit more water in her. Unfortunately she takes a couple little bites and let’s it crust over as she goes back to the dry bowl. As a loyal Blue Buffalo customer you have Failed with a capital “ F “!!! Try again !!!

Cats hated this food
By fortam on Jan 8, 2021
Spent bucks on this special diet but cats hate everything about the food. oh where on label did it say pate? Use chewy for foods they like.

Unfortunately...
By ReneeB on Nov 22, 2020
My cats wouldn't even touch the stuff. And they're not picky at all about food. It looked kind of like canned bologna if there were such a thing,except it was smoother. It's a good brand, so I'm kinda surprised that they wouldn't eat it.

My ginger love doesn't like this pate.
By DoraFlash on Nov 10, 2020
My ginger love needs renal prescription food but he also likes variety. I tried this hoping he would add it to his favorite list. It is very dry, no gravy so I tried adding a little water. He will not eat it nor will the local foster group's kidney failure cats.

Helps to add water!
By Vicki on Jan 9, 2021
The texture is a bit unappealing to my kitties so I add some water and mix well. This seems to make it more palatable.

Better ingredients
By Catmom2 on Sep 10, 2020
Kitty has slightly elevated kidney enzymes so the vet wanted to put him on a kidney care diet. Most of the kidney care diet food is utter garbage: by products, fillers, wheat. This is one of the 2 kidney care meals I found that is made with real ingredients. I had to slowly introduce it by mixing it with the old food. It is very rubbery and consistency and I always add water, because water is essential for kidney health. I also add probiotics to help support over all gut health and reduce inflammation. Kitty now gobbles this down no problem at all. In fact his sibling wants it too!!
