Feeding Guide

Ideal feeding amounts vary by age, weight, and activity level. Use this as an initial recommendation and adjust as needed. Divide the daily amount by the number of feedings. Always provide clean, fresh water. Along with dry food, we recommend feeding raw or wet food to help increase water in your cat’s diet.

Based on a standard 8 oz measuring cup. Consult a veterinarian for a personal plan.

How to switch

Transition gradually over 5 to 7 days by mixing increasing amounts with the current food. Consult a veterinarian for a personal plan.

Storage

Unopened bags stay fresh up to 18 months (do not exceed the printed expiration). After opening, reseal between feedings; kibble stays fresh about 2 to 3 months. Store in a cool, dry place.
