Kitten, adult or senior?
Kittens need a food made for growth or all life stages until they're about a year old; the AAFCO statement on the bag says which. Many adult cats do well on an all-life-stages food into their senior years. Ask your vet if your older cat needs a change.
Mixing dry and wet food
Dry food is convenient and keeps well in a bowl. Many cats don't drink much water, so plenty of owners also feed some wet food. Your vet can help you find the right balance for your cat.
Switching foods
Cats can be picky, so switch gradually over 7 to 10 days, mixing more of the new food into the old. Keep dry food in its original bag inside a sealed container so it stays fresh.
Questions
- When should a kitten switch to adult food?
- Around 12 months for most cats. Ask your vet, especially for large breeds like Maine Coons, which grow for longer.
- Is dry food enough on its own?
- A complete and balanced dry food meets a cat's nutritional needs. Many owners add wet food for extra moisture; ask your vet what suits your cat.
- What is indoor cat food?
- It's a maker's formula for less active indoor cats, often with fewer calories or more fiber. Check the label to see what's different.
