Questions & Answers

When should you start feeding a kitten adult food?

Answer by ChewyAug 01, 2018
Kittens typically reach adult full grown size by 9 to 12 months of age. After the 1-year mark, most cats continue to grow at a much slower rate until at least 18 months of age. Large breeds, such as Maine coon cats, typically take even longer to grow to their full size.

How many cups per bag?

Answer by ChewyJan 09, 2020
There will be approximately 4 cups of kibble per pound. The 3.5 pound bag will have close to 14 cups, the 7 pound bag close to 28 cups and the 16 pound bag close to 64 cups.

The Four Ps loved the kitten option for their first year. We are now mixing in the adult food as the little beans aren’t so little anymore. But I know feeding them this great food helped them grow to be big and strong spoiled inside kitties from once small feral babies.

I wanted to make sure to give my kitty a good starting diet since I wasn’t able to do that with my first cat that I had 15 years ago. My parents didn’t know a lot about having a cat so we mostly fed her fancy feast or friskies dry food. My kitten absolutely loves this dry food and I feel good giving her something a bit more high quality.

THIS IS THE FOOD FOR YOUR KITTEN

We recently adopted two kittens, and one of them was struggling with terrible diarrhea. Even after medication, her stool stayed soft and SO STINKY, until we switched to this food. Within just a few days, the smell improved noticeably, and she finally started having solid stools. Both of our kittens absolutely love this food! It’s been amazing for their development, they’ve gained healthy weight and are thriving.

My Himi kitten loves it.

The breeder fed this to her Himi cats, so I continued it and he loves it. Vacuums it down. Eats FF pate also and he is just gorgeous! He is a Chocolate Lynx Point

The breeder fed this to her Himi cats, so I continued it and he loves it. Vacuums it down. Eats FF pate also and he is just gorgeous! He is a Chocolate Lynx Point neutered male kitten. The vet on first meeting, took him from me in waiting room and brought him out back to show the other 6 vets and staff! Cannot wait for them to see how his Himi color points have come in beautifully after a yr for his boosters. He has grown well on this food! He is very active, stools are ok, urinates well and no issues at all! He has this free-feed. So glad I can order this on Chewy, and it arrives safe and sound quickly! Thank you!
