Helpful?
Do you have to transition when picking another flavor? Or can I switch flavors anytime with no transition?
- Thank you for reaching out. With 90% of dogs and cats you can as long as you stay in the same line. If your cat does not have a sensitive stomach there should be no issue.

I have 3 5-6 day old kittens that were abandoned by another cat. My mother cat has nursed them a little but is very scared. I've got kitten replacement milk and a murder bottle for kittens just in case. How much and how often do they need to eat?
My 6 weeks old kitten has been eating kitten dry food but today she accidentally ate adult dry food I don’t know if this is the reason but the kitten is getting out drops of blood like two drops with the poop I am so worried I made her drink water and tried to make her go poop to see it all her poop has blood or not please help
My cat is 10 years old and appears healthy. Lots of energy and nice cost. He seems to have a problem chewing his Purina Naturals after many years of no problems. He works to break them into smaller pieces Is there a softer dry food? I don't want to go to canned food if possible.
My 15 year old cat has stage 2 kidney disease. She shows no changes in her personality or daily habits. She will not eat any of the renal wet prescription diet food that our vet has suggested. What would be the best brand of store shelf wet food for her? I have been reading labels for high protein and moisture, good Omega 3, low phosphorus and alot of brands seem to be about the same. She is a fussy eater.
