Kitten Feeding Instructions:

Kittens generally nibble solid foods at 3 - 4 weeks of age. Keep moistened Purina® Kitten Chow® Nurturing Formula available to these kittens at all times. Just add one part liquid to three parts Purina® Kitten Chow® Nurturing Formula, changing frequently to ensure freshness. After weaning, at 6 - 8 weeks of age, kittens can eat either dry or moistened food. Start a self-feeding program, leaving food in dish at all times. Because kittens continue to develop throughout their first year, it's important that they get the extra nutrition of Purina® Kitten Chow® Nurturing Formula for a full 12 months. After one year of age, transition to the Purina® Cat Chow® formula that's right for your cat.

We use the finest ingredients and a selective blend of protein, carbs, and fat in every bag of Purina® Cat Chow®. Here are some of the ingredients in our Kitten Chow formula:

  • Poultry by-product meal
    An excellent protein source created after poultry is processed for human consumption. A second process removes excess fat, leaving a nutrient-rich protein source. After that, we add it to kibble, where it helps provide the amino acids and protein that are good for cats of all ages.
  • Corn meal
    It's simply ground whole corn. And it provides cats with nutrients, like carbs for energy and essential fatty acids.
  • Corn gluten meal
    Gluten is the protein part of any whole grain—in this case, it's from the whole corn kernel. Corn gluten meal comes from the production of vegetable oil and is an excellent source of protein.
  • Brewers rice
    Nope, it doesn't come from a brewery. It's actually whole and broken grains of rice that gives cats a great source of carbs.
  • Soy flour meal
    Comes from finely ground soybeans, after their oil has been removed. And it packs a protein punch.
  • Taurine
    It's an amino acid. And cats need it, but their bodies don't produce enough of it. So we make sure to put it in every formula we create, helping cats maintain healthy vision and a strong heart.
  • Animal fat
    Every healthy diet needs some fat. For cats, fat provides energy and helps keep their coat healthy. Our products provide an optimal amount of fat that every cat needs—and this fat adds to each formula's great taste.
  • Ingredients:
    Chicken by-product meal, corn gluten meal, brewers rice, soy flour, animal fat preserved with mixed-tocopherols (form of Vitamin E), wheat flour, fish meal, animal liver flavor, dried yeast, turkey by-product meal, calcium carbonate, phosphoric acid, salt, choline chloride, taurine, potassium chloride, zinc sulfate, ferrous sulfate, Vitamin E supplement, niacin, manganese sulfate, Vitamin A supplement, calcium pantothenate, thiamine mononitrate, added color (Red 40), copper sulfate, riboflavin supplement, Vitamin B-12 supplement, pyridoxine hydrochloride, folic acid, Vitamin D-3 supplement, calcium iodate, biotin, menadione sodium bisulfite complex (source of Vitamin K activity), sodium selenite.
