DHA and why it’s important

  • DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) is an omega-3 fatty acid found naturally in the breast milk of mother cats.
  • As a major building block of the brain, DHA is critical for vision and central nervous system development. Foods enhanced with DHA, such as Hill's® kitten foods, help kittens reach their potential for body and brain development
