(EDIT: sorry mods I meant to put this in Health and Nutrition oops)
...so I have a question about our food situation.
At the moment both the cats are on Whiskas Kitten Junior. It recommends the kitty eats this until the age of 1. So next month when Sleeves turns 1 we would ideally want to swap him onto adult food. However, Nismo is only 6 months old and it is going to be nigh on impossible to stop her from eating his food.
When we put the bowls down, they eat out of their own bowls for a minute or 2 then swap over...
There is also the dry food, which we also use Whiskas Kitten food.
I think it would be easier if we just continued to feed the kitten food until Nismo also turns 1 (October) but if this is not going to give Sleeves everything he needs as an adult cat, the other option is feed adult food to both of them, but will this be too much for Nismo?
We could also mix it up a bit by feeding some kitten food and some adult food?
I'm getting a little bit worried about it as mealtimes are just a bowl swapping event and the dry food is out all the time so there wouldn't be anyway to supervise.
Any help from anyone who's done this before would be much appreciated.
