I decided to try authority kitten wet food but I'm not an expert at food. So my question is... is authority kitten wet food good for kittens? (I am going to be mixing it with dry bb wilderness kitten food if it makes any difference)

Authority is a decent food, and not too expensive. Are you actually going to mix the dry food in with the wet food or feed them separately? If you're actually mixing it in, don't mix more than he'll eat right away, because a wet/dry mixture gets nasty real fast.

Yes mix them together and I did try to calculate how much she would eat and she finished it all (:

You may want to read this thread that I started yesterday before going for BB:

Even if the food is safe, my cat absolutely hated BB. Something's changed, she liked it a year ago.
I did read it and even commented Lol (: I might change to another brand later but for now I went from healthy growth to wilderness kitten she seems to love it again maybe cause of the wet food though but either way she devoured it!

Since she ate the wet when mixed with her dry, I would start decreasing the amts of dry in the mix until she is eating just wet. Can I ask why you are mixing it? Will she not eat the wet unless mixed?

She has only need eating dry and I know we r suppose to change her little by little. I don't want to upset her stomach. So do I get rid of dry completely? I was thinking on leaving her on both (mixed together)

If she likes wet, an all wet diet is better for her. If cost is an issue and you want to continue some dry, you could do 1 can a day, 1/2 in am, 1/2 in pm (of a 5.5 - 6oz can) and offer her the dry as a midday meal. Just a small one.

Changing dry foods, from brand to brand, ect, is the one you want to slowly switch. If only wet food, there is not as much of a problem switching foods around. You actually WANT her on a variety so food boredom doesn't set in. Also, so if one food goes off the market, or there is a recall, you have another to fall back on.
