Question 2

So what food follows this formula after they go over the kitten stage?

Accepted Answer

I don't know. I use it for my adult cats because it has higher protein and fat than adult formulas. All felines are obligate carnivores. They're designed by Mother Nature to eat meat. This food isn't species appropriate, but better than most. I supplement with wet food. Wet food is better than dry. The best way to feed is to make your own with raw meat, bones and other supplements in a grinder. Lots of recipes out there on the internet. Time and budget are considerations for me. To make regular cat food a bit better add a little krill oil and supplemental vitamins. Give them small pieces of meat when you cook meat at meal time. That will help keep them healthy. Big concerns with cats are diabetes, thyroid disease, kidney disease and obesity. Feed fish sparingly. Bad for their thyroid. Dry food bad for kidneys. Check out Dr Karen Becker on mercola.com. Lots of good advice

Question 3

How many cups does the 7lb pound amount to?

Accepted Answer

This answer is by no means scientifically correct but it may put you in the ballpark. I do not use a cup to serve up this food. I dish it up by handsfull. I just measured that it takes 6 handsful to fill a measuring cup. The seven pounds last about one month with approximately one cup served each day. Per my math that would be about 30 cups of food.

Question 4

Is this dry food in smaller pellets for a kitten to be able to easily eat?

Accepted Answer

Yes they are small pellets. My kittens did not have any problem eating them.
