We recommend at least a 7-day transition before you begin feeding the new food exclusively. Start by mixing 75% of the old diet with 25% of the new diet on Day 1 and Day 2. On Day 3 and Day 4, mix 50% of the old diet with 50% of the new diet. On Day 5 and Day 6, mix 25% of the old diet with 75% of the new diet. On the 7th day, you can feed the new food exclusively. This allows your pet’s digestive system to smoothly adapt to the new food.

Great for mother cat
By jody68467 on May 1, 2020
I have a year old cat that had her first liter of 7. Yes 7 kittens. The mom cat is pretty tiny. She was a rescue and they believe she was under nourished as a kitten. Anyway, her kittens were falling behind. So I got this food and mixed it with kitten milk. I am already see the difference in the kittens. I would definitely recommend this food if you find your self in the same situation.

The dry doesn't seem to appeal to kitten
By JillyD on May 2, 2020
This dry food has a nice, oily appearance with small bites perfect for a kitten. Our kitten ignores this food, however. He loves the wet version. And wet food is much better for a young kitten in any case--easier on the kidneys. This food is perfectly nutritious. My boy just doesn't go for it.

Great food but pricey
By Lisamay on Mar 29, 2020
I've used this food in the past for my personal needs great food! Works for both mother's and kittens. However this particular purchase was for the kitten rescue in Los Angeles. As much business as I do with Chewy I so wish that when we are purchasing for donations there would be a price break. It would benefit everyone all the way around! Thank you

Great product
By Sandy on Apr 27, 2020
Never had a Mommy cat not love this dry food. And the pieces are extremely small so easy for kittens to digest and eat. My only problem is keeping my other cats from eating it, must taste good.

Great Kitten and Mommy cat food!
By Elitelady on Feb 5, 2020
Tiny kibble is easy for small Kittens to eat when they get teeth, perfect to get Momma Cat extra calories and nutrients while nursing. I Foster Kittens so it's perfect transition from wet food. Beautiful healthy coats and promotes overall health.

By JJay on Dec 26, 2019
I have a older Main Coon fixed male that has always been on the narrow side. Needed a food that would let hin gain weight..He LOVES this food and I add it to his other canned food for more substance. I also give him some many times a day to help him out...
