Hello and thanks for using Boop by Petco! In general I tend to recommend other diets aside from Blue Buffalo. I prefer Royal Canin or Science diet (and both these companies also have grain free options for kitten food if that's what you are interested in). These foods have been studied and their safety has been well demonstrated whereas some other companies do not do as much or as extensive testing of their diets. For kittens (and cats in general) an all canned food diet is preferred. Canned cat food is lower in carbohydrates and has a higher moisture content which can reduce the risk of diabetes, urinary tract disease and kitten disease as cats get older. You should also check out the packaging of food for an AAFCO statement as this ensures it is formulated for the growth of a kitten. Good luck with Jasmine!

I never recommend Blue Buffalo. It's a terrible quality of food, they have no quality control (they don't own their own factories), and there have been recalls on the food. I don't recommend Rachel Ray either. She's a TV chef with no experience in animal nutrition. As for the others, they are grain free. Grain free is a fad, and I never recommend feeding it. The foods I recommended to you in your other post are high quality. I hope this helps.

I feel like Wellness fits all of those categories pretty well. I guess affordable is a very relative term, but if you are only feeding one cat, one of the large cans should last you a bit. This is what I feed to my three adult cats and they all love it. You will definitely need to go to a pet food store, tractor supply, or an online supplier to obtain this food rather than a supermarket usually. Hill's also makes pretty good quality (has a grain free line) food, but I don't think their wet food is smooth like you requested. Anyway, hope this helps!

Great question! I actually recommend a food with grains in it. Grains are good for cats, and they provide a lasting source of energy and fuel. Grain free is a marketing ploy and fad, and there is no proof at all that grains are bad for cats. Having a diet with grains in it will provide Kitty with more fuel for his high energy life. Brands I recommend including Royal Canin, Hill's Science Diet, Purina ProPlan, or Iams. Best of luck, I hope this helps!

Frankly, I do not care for Blue Buffalo products because they have a history of lying about their ingredients in their diets. Hills and Royal Canin are my preferred brands. There are other limited protein food brands out there, such as Natural Balance, which has formulas with a single protein source and a single carbohydrate source, making it less likely for your cat to develop an allergy.
