Review: Attention fosterers! - We foster kittens through the Humane Society. Over the years we’ve dealt with a lot of kittens having various GI issues, and if we’ve learned anything it’s to keep corn out of their diets! This is, bar none, the best kitten food we’ve found. The kibbles are perfectly sized and shaped, easily swallowed even by kittens who can’t chew well yet. They gain weight well on this, eat it voraciously, and we’ve seen less diarrhea with this feed than anything else - period. Of course there’s Hill’s a/d for crisis situations, and we’ve doctored Nutro with Fortiflora or Proviable when necessary. But Nutro Kitten is our go-to. Solid stools, thriving kittens - what’s not to love?
Review: This stuff is good !! - The food quality is awesome. A little bit of this goes a long way. It is made with real ingredients making it safe for your kitty. My kitten wasnt intrested in dry food after weaning. I tried box store brand after brand and just decided to go with the expensive stuff. My cats loves Nutro. I will spend the extra dollars for my fur baby for him to enjoy his food. Its like right off the bat he knew.. ok this stuff is good. So yes it's a good value for the money. And as a pet parent I even tried a piece of the kibble myself. It has this rich taste to it setting it aside from the other brands. It wasnt hard for it to break down making it an easy chew for cats with sensitive teeth. The pieces of kibble are small if you have another cat like mine who just swallows the pieces whole because of teeth issues. This is our brand of food.
