Adjust amounts accordingly over time. Please remember these portions are averages and will vary according to age, activity, size and temperament of your cat. When introducing Primitive Feline™ to your cat's diet, mix increasing amounts of Primitive Feline™ with decreasing amounts of the current food over a 1 - week period.
During gestation and lactation, feed 2 - 3 times as much food as recommended in the Daily Feeding Guide for the weight of your Adult cat. Kittens start to eat solid foods at 3 - 4 weeks of age and should have free access to moistened food from this time until weaning (6 - 8 weeks). Moistened food should be 1 part warm water with 3 parts Primitive Feline™. You may keep Primitive Feline™ before your kitten at all times; most kittens will satisfy their nutritional needs as their appetite dictates. Have clean, fresh water available at all times.

Simple transition and happy kitties
By Tsuanamiy on Jan 5, 2021
My boys have been on this for a couple weeks. (They both are about 8 months.) They took to it right away so the transition was pretty easy. (One is more picky than the other, the picky one seems to have grain intolerance). I switched to this because it's more affordable than what I was feeding them and came in bigger quantities. I was getting bags of 5-7 lbs before for 15$-18$ each. Those didn't last very long with 2 hungry boys, don't worry they're both in healthy shape and the foodie kitty has actually slowed down on his chonkiness. I was pretty skeptical of this food before because it's for adults cats and kittens but the reviews were good and a lot of other people seem to be feeding it to My boys have been on this for a couple weeks.

So far it's working out fine and I'm glad it'll make the switch from kitten to cat food easier for me since they're already on this one. I'll just have to swap out their wet food to and adult food. I got the 14 lb bag and it looks like it'll last about a month for two 8 month old 12lb kittens. I feed each about 1 cup a day. … more

SCRAPPY'S FAVORITE..!!
By SherreeLynne on Nov 12, 2020
Got our 'kitty' when he was just 2mos. old...now, he's 11yrs.+ 4mos. His needs have changed drastically...in the last two years! Needed to change his 'kibble' [was becoming lethargic, and didn't want to eat...], to higher protein [and add water...for constipation problems], and serve wet food as well. Tried Earthborn, bought first, at my food-store...[however... it's easier to find consistently @ CHEWY...] and he loved it, 'hugged his bowl',purred and perked up, quite a bit!! I also tried...[and it worked]...about 1/2 tsp. Castor Oil, a day, [all natural+used for humans+pets for 100s of yrs.] when constipation became severe... He's a 'happy' and 'regular' buddy' now...[LOL!]

The kittens give it 5 stars!
By Mimi on Dec 20, 2020
Recently I adopted two six-month old Siamese kittens the shelter. The absolutely love this food! I've noticed their fur has become thicker, softer and shinier since starting them on Earthborn Holistic. It's a winner! We'll definitely be ordering more.

Excellent Food
By KiKiKitty on Dec 23, 2020
My cats really like this food and I really like the ingredients compared to other foods. I did try a different flavor but they like this one best. Definitely recommend especially because all of them like it and that is not easy!

Wonderful formula
By opie on Dec 10, 2020
The owner i got my cat from already had her on this food. Her coat has always been shiny and she seems to be in great health. Lots of energy and lots of love. I will happily go out of my way to continue to feed her this brand, but chewy makes it easy as pie.

Good cat food.
By Joly on Nov 14, 2020
This cat food was recommended to me by the breeder whom we got our 2 cats from. She breeds Russian blues and Singapuras. She said that this food is great for fur coat, nutrition, and can be eaten by kittens as well by grown cats. My 2 Singapuras prefer non-holistic food though. They just don’t know better. They always go for cheap cat-McDonald’s type food.

this is a high quality cat food
By dragonfly on Oct 16, 2020
I researched the best dry cat food to buy and I bought this one because it was a bit more affordable and it has great ingredients. At the same time, I bought wellness grain free complete heath dry cat food. My three cats much preferred the wellness over the earthborn. I also feed various stray cats in the neighborhood. They will sometimes leave some of the earthborn in their dish. That never happens with the wellness. I ordered more wellness for both the outdoor homeless cats and for my own three indoor cats. I have never found a dry cat food that my cats liked more than the wellness brand that I bought.

Disappointed
By Destiny on Nov 5, 2020
I am very disappointed with this shipment, I’ve never had any issues with Earth born cat food, I received this bag of cat food and it was completely molded in the bottom of the bag and my husband and I didn’t notice till the bag was half way gone, Now my Cat is loosing his hair , We brought him to the vet and they said it’s because of cat food that had mold in it.

5 Month Kitten Approves
By RSchuck on Oct 8, 2020
I just adopted a male 5 month kitten and started doing research over cat food. As a kid, our boy cat died from an obstructed urinary tract because he didn’t get enough moisture from just dry food. I wanted to find a brand I could trust for wet/dry food and came across this company. I liked what I saw and chose the wet tuna pouches (he loves) and this dry food. Since he’s new, I’m mixing this food with his Purina Kitten food. He does eat the Purina first and then he eats this, but thankfully he isn’t picky and cleans his bowl with no problem. Very grateful since every cat’s taste is different!

5 out of 5 fosters and 2 permanent staff approve
By DoraFlash on Nov 10, 2020
I have 5 fosters and 2 adult cats. I tried an alternative that was on sale. It may cost a little more but the savings is evident in less scooping. 2 of my fosters have a grain intolerance. In lieu of meditating them I switched to this food. No vomiting or diarrhea from this food, it is easily digested.
