1. Nutritional Needs of Kittens (0-12 Months)
Kittens need high protein, fat, and calories to support growth. Feed kitten-specific food 3–4 times daily. Include DHA for brain development.
2. The Balanced Diet for Adults (1–7 Years)
Adult cats need maintenance diets with balanced protein, fat, and fiber. Focus on portion control and activity level.
3. Special Considerations for Senior Cats (7+ Years)
Older cats often need food lower in calories but rich in antioxidants, joint support (glucosamine), and kidney-friendly formulations.
4. How Much and How Often Should You Feed?
- Kittens: 3–4 small meals/day
- Adults: 2 meals/day
- Seniors: 2–3 small meals/day, depending on health status
5. Switching Life Stages Without Digestive Trouble
Gradually mix the new food into the old over 7–10 days. Sudden switches can cause vomiting or diarrhea.
