So...this post is somewhat preemptive, because I have not taken my 2 kittens home yet. On the other hand, I already bought food before finding this website. I've read through several threads & read some from catinfo.org.
Basically my question, like most new kitten owners, what will be best to feed to my kittens? Feel free to suggest by brand, flavor, etc.
I bought Wellness Core kitten as a dry food. Now I know you guys suggest a wet food only diet, but I plan to do a combo diet, so suggestions for both wet & dry food would be appreciated.
I did a lot of comparing of ingredients, fat/protein ratio, & prices at my local pet store. My question about this part is...do kittens need a higher fat content since they're growing? My only experience with comparing this has been with 2 overweight adult dogs, so obviously we were looking for the lowest fat content.
Lastly, I'll let you know that my food comparisons led me to choose between wellness core kitten dry food & merrick purrfect bistro kitten dry food. And for wet food, I bought science diet & purina one kitten formulas, I believe.
Please let me know your suggestions! I am young, just out of college. I want to feed my kittens right, whether it's expensive or not, but of course saving some money is always nice as well. Cheap & expensive food suggestions would be great.
