Debera
She is 9 months old today and looks like an adult cat, but Im still feeding her the kitten formula dry food. Just wondering when to start the adult formula....Thanks for your help!

I started at a year

After a year or after shes been spayed if you get her spayed before shes a year old. If you have a Norwegian Forest Cat or another slow growing breed of cat you should keep your kitten on kitten food for up to two years.
Alfreda
Most things Ive read suggest 1 year.
Jeanna
When your cat is about a year
Suellen
At 1 year of age.

The whole concept of "kitten" food is so illogical and deceptive as to be ridiculous. Do you think that mother cats bring their kittens special "kitten" mice? You can go to www. petfooddirect. com and pull up any food for a cat, dry or wet. Just compare the kitten food you are feeding to the adult formula of the same brand. There might be 2-4% more protein in the kitten food. If it is not high-grade meat protein it isnt helping the kitten at all. Corn is counted as protein and is totally inadequate for cat nutrition. The only vitamin the kitten (or cat) needs is vitamin A which the cats cant make in their bodies. Taurine is an essential amino acid and it is added to ALL commercial foods - cat or kitten. So if you use Eagle Pack, Solid Gold, Natural Balance - and there are many other good quality cat foods now - the kitten or cat will be appropriately nourished. The manufacturers of poor quality cat food have had to come up with "indoor" and "diet" formulas (the amount of corn in their foods makes cats fat), "hairball" formulas (the amount of corn in their foods is indigestible for the cat and they vomit it up), "senior" cat formulas to lower protein when the QUALITY of the protein should be the issue and not the QUANTITY. This is all to correct the problems that their poor food creates in the first place. Also I would never feed a cat a diet of dry food only. Vets are beginning to realise that the dry diets are causing early kidney failure in cats. Go to www. littlebigcat. com and read Dr. Jean Hovfes article titled "Why Cats Need Canned Food".

You should do that about one year of age. It is very important to tell you kitten that he is now a man, and yell out "Meee meee mee meeeeeeeeee!!!" your cat will love it.

On her 13th month

It should be okay to feed her the adult formula now just start mixing them in with little amounts then do the switch

When your cat turns 12 months in age is the time to start feeding the adult cat food :) Hope that helps

About a year old. One of my twin kittens have grown very large, like an adult cat even though hes five months old. Its tempting to feed him cat food, but looks are deceiving. I wont feed them cat food until theyre a year old.

My vet reccomend a year and a half to two years. Cats may look adult but they are still growing until about two years.
