Feeding Guide
Daily Feeding Guide:
Helpful Tips
- For kittens/pregnant cats: begin by feeding the suggested daily amount. Your pet may need less or more food to maintain proper weight. Adjust as needed. If you are unsure, ask your veterinarian.
- For nursing cats: keep food available at all times.
- Feeding this food for the first time? Mix increasing amounts of your pet's new food with decreasing amounts of the old food over a 7-day period.
- Keep fresh water available at all times!
- We recommend that you take your pet to the veterinarian at least twice a year for regular health check-ups.
- Your pet's nutritional needs change with each lifestage. Continue to give her the same precise and balanced nutrition by transitioning your kitten to one of the Hill's® Science Diet® Adult cat foods once she reaches 1 year of age.
- Science Diet Kitten is available in a wide variety of dry foods for your kitten's unique needs. Canned kitten food is also available from Science Diet in a variety of delicious textures and flavors that your kitten will love.
- To prevent suffocation, keep this plastic bag out of the reach of pets and children.
