Any of these would be fine: ( https://www.amazon.com/Hills-Science-Diet-Kitten-Chicken/dp/B003M5TGCI/ref=sr_1_8?keywords=kitten+dry+food&qid=1575986553&sr=8-8 ) ( https://www.amazon.com/Purina-Pro-Plan-Chicken-Formula/dp/B003R0LLXU/ref=sr_1_6?keywords=kitten+dry+food&qid=1575986553&sr=8-6 ) ( https://www.amazon.com/Royal-Canin-Feline-Nutrition-Kittens/dp/B00ECQ966W/ref=sr_1_9?keywords=kitten+dry+food&qid=1575986553&sr=8-9 )

Wellness, Weruva and Royal Canin are all good choices. When it comes to a canned food, look for one with a named protein source of animal (not plant) origin. Choose a food that comes from the can looking like a hockey puck. Avoid foods with gravies or sauces. These are typically higher in carbs which can predispose a cat to obesity. Avoid meat meals, by-products as well as store or discount brands. These latter two contain low quality ingredients and more fillers.

Science diet and Purina have very good cat formulas for cats. I would find one that is appropriate for your cats age and health status. For example, they make a hairball formula if that is problem or an over weight formula if weight loss is needed there is no benefit of feeding dry over canned, so it is personal preference for that.

The best option would be a GI specific formula made for sensitive stomachs. You can look at science diet I/D or Purina EN. Royal canin has good hypoallergenic diets that can also help with GI issues. These all come in dry or canned if needed

It is best to use an AAFCO (Association of American Feed Control Officials) food. AAFCO does not regulate, test, approve or certify pet foods in any way. AAFCO establishes the nutritional standards for complete and balanced pet foods, and it is the pet food company's responsibility to formulate their products according to the appropriate AAFCO standard. This may help you: http://www.peteducation.com/article.cfm?c=1+2244&aid=657 Blue Buffalo is not AAFCO and neither is Wellness. When you don't use a food that uses AAFCO standards then you don't know if the food is appropriately balanced. Pick a food that uses AAFCO standards. It will tell you on the bag. My recommendation for indoor cats is Royal Canin Indoor Adult Cat. https://www.royalcanin.com/products/royal-canin-feline-health-nutrition-indoor-adult-dry-cat-food/2529?bvstate=pg:2/ct:r Hope this helps. Best wishes!
