New Kitty Gives This Thumbs Up! (Except she does not have thumbs.)
By JimW on Jan 2, 2022
We just adopted a 7-month-old kitten from the local animal shelter and bought this food for her. She loves it! We recommend it strongly.

Love it and VERY nutritious!
By Jenz on Nov 1, 2021
New kitten loves the food as well as my 4yr old cat who tries to steal the kitten's food. Small kibble size and VERY nutritious. Definitely MUCH tastier than Science Diet formulas. They both stick head in same tiny bowl!

The only food my cat will eat. She won't eat wet food, even high end.
By Marty on Oct 25, 2021
The shop where I usually buy it was out of it. Plus, it's 10 miles away. So, I went to Chewy. Thank you!

Itty Bitty Kitty Food
By FosterMomma on Aug 8, 2021
Tried several dry kitten food brands. Some were too big, some too hard. This is small & just right for helping to wean 5 kittens!

My adult cat loves this
By Wildfire on May 31, 2021
I was amazed how my adult cat ate this up. He waits for me to fill the bowl. I didnt notice it said it was for kittens (that's my fault) so I thought he wouldn't eat it but he loves it. I hope when I order the adult version he will like it as much.
