We do not anticipate any issues when switching from the current Science Diet Kitten Healthy Development to the new formulas. However, any time there is a change in food, especially with cats that are more sensitive, a gradual transition is a good idea. We recommend a seven day transition period, as a safety precaution. For any pet new to this food, it is important to mix increasing amounts of the new Science Diet Kitten Healthy Development with the old food over a 7-day period. Also keep fresh water available at all times.

My 5 cats love this food
By CatMom on Feb 24, 2021
I’ve stuck with this food because I’ve adopted a new baby each year over last few years. My youngest now is 7 months and I have 4 adults. All 5 cats love this food. Every one of my cats is a rescue. 2 of them were found abandoned and in bad health. Including my 7 month old. My cats are all now very healthy and my 4 boys are all pretty large. My largest is 28 pounds. My other boys are larger than average. My one female is smaller but she’s super healthy. It pays off to invest in good quality pet food.

Best Cat Food!!!
By Grace on Feb 14, 2021
I have been feeding this to my new kitten and older cat until the kitten is at the age where he can have adult food - they love it! When I poured the food into their container with their old food, my older cat literally jumped into it head first to eat it. I had cats in the past that were really picky with the Hill's brand, but they absolutely love it!

Good food !
By beni on Jan 29, 2021
This food is vet recommended. I have been changing brand to brand and alot of them have unnecessary ingredients that actually are harmful for cats. This is one of the best ones I have came across. The cat poo smells bad but its not only because of food obviously. My cats seem to like it though and it's a healthy option .

Kitten seems to like it; no complaints here
By AZPetMom on Jan 24, 2021
The Humane Society I adopted a kitten from fed this to the kittens. I purchased another preferred brand plus Hill's and mixed them together thinking I could wean the kitten to the other brand. Nope. This is the one she likes. She eats both this and a soft food from another brand that I has served my other animals well in the past.

Great Food!
By Jenny on Dec 7, 2020
We rescued a little kitty from a shelter who was being fed whatever they had available. When we brought her home we bought food that we had heard good things about however it was making her gassy and her stomach bloated even after some time. I looked into other food options and decided to make the switch. We slowly transitioned her and immediately I could tell the difference. Her stomach is not as bloated, she is not gassy and she does not have loose stools. We are very happy with this food and take it has made a huge difference on her little tummy.

Our kitties and "CATS" love this food!
By Gigi on Jan 6, 2021
Have been using this kitty food for the last couple of years and all six of our kitties and cats love it. I would recommend it to anyone. Granted, it is more expensive, but it's good tasting and good for them. Appreciate the excellent service we have always received from Chewy.com.

Kitten likes it
By 2Cats on Dec 5, 2020
My (7 mo) kitten was more interested in my adult cat’s “Perfect Digestion” food by Hills than she was in her more expensive Blue Buffalo Carnivora, so I tried switching her to Hills kitten food, and she gobbled it up. So my plan is to feed her the kitten food for a few more months then switch her to the Perfect Digestion. I give her a little adult food in the morning now, and that keeps her happy (nibbling on both varieties.)

Great except for shape of kibble
By CrazyCatLady on Jan 4, 2021
This is a very nutritious cat food and my indoor and outdoor kittens/cats love the flavor! However, the shape of the kibble, almost like pellets, is odd. Even though cats do not need to chew their food, my cats prefer a flat, crunchy kibble.

Great food, a tad smelly
By Kris on Dec 23, 2020
My kittens love this food, but is has an odor that I don’t care for. (Which of course may be there to Entice picky eater) I allow my cats to freely eat whenever they want to, so I leave this out. They are long hair cats and their coats are silky soft. I mean mega soft.
