We shop at albertsons, safeway, petsmart, petco. And we mix wet and dry...we just need recipes for nutricious meals for him.

he's 3 months old...his name is Kenny. But we don't mean home-made...more like what brands to mix or maybe mix in some "people foods" like chicken or tuna, etc.

well if your budget allows nutro natural choice has food and pouches that are very good for baby... no ground corn , no by products or chemical preseratives... another good kitten food only has dry is royal canin has some corn but no by products..

Please do not mix in human tuna - there are issues you can get into, but if you wish to treat him - meaning a tablespoon max per day, use tuna in water, not in oil.

Besides the brands sharky mentioned, you can consider any "formulated for all lifestages" food...Petco carries Natural Balance which is one you can consider. I would stay away from Safeway's store brand of canned - their canned food contains onion salt last time I checked, which is toxic to cats (onion, in any form). PetSmart's Authority brand is very affordable and very decent quality - worth consideration, and they have both dry as well as canned foods in this line.

Hello!
I'm trying to find the most nutricious kitten food for my 3 month old baby, Kenny. I was wondering if any of you know any good recipes for kittens. Such as mixtures of kitten brands (wet and dry) and "people food" like chicken and tuna and different meats.
Thanks for the help!
