Adult Cat Food
What is the difference between kitten food and adult cat food?
Kitten foods are actually quite different from adult cat foods. Kitten foods are formulated to meet the specific nutritional requirements of an active, playful, and rapidly-growing growing feline. They are calorie-dense, allowing for optimal growth. Kitten food also contains extra nutrients, like protein, fat, and carbohydrates.
At what age should I switch my kitten to adult cat food?
At the age of one, most kittens are considered a full-grown adult. By this age, your kitten can be switched to an adult cat food.
What options are available for my cat’s unique dietary needs?

Indoor adult cats often don’t participate in as much physical activity as outdoor adults, so they require a lower-calorie diet to maintain their weight. The best indoor adult cat foods will meet these specific needs. Some of the most popular options are Canidae Life Stages Indoor Formula Dry Cat Food, Blue Buffalo Indoor Health Adult Cat Food, and Friskies Indoor Delights Dry Cat Food. Kittens also have nutritional needs all their own, which is why we offer a variety of top-quality kitten foods.
