    So is there no need for 'kitten' food? My kitten is about 10 weeks old and as i said i give him HiLife kitten food and [EMAIL="P@H"]P@H[/EMAIL] complete dry food.

    You can give it to them if you want, the kitten food only has a tiny percentage more nutrients than adult food (which can be easily supplemented if you are determined to have that amount of nutrients). The difference in price though is amazing and downright robbery in some cases :eek:

    My kittens are 6 weeks old today and have been weaned onto ADULT HiLife pate tins. They will be weaned onto KITTEN dry food because the adult biscuits are too big for them right now and they will choke. When they hit about 9/10 weeks I'll switch them over to adult biscuits :)

    when my cat was a kitten he loved the kitten hi life and then the adult hi life but now he likes feline fayre tuna or tuna and salmon, i wouldnt give him anything else

    remember though that the blue sachets are just complimentary, only the black sachets/ tins are complete cat food, for complete cat food i give my cat purina one chicken and rice biscuits, waitrose often have these bags on offer ;)

    My Cotton absolutely loves the tuna tins :D 4 for 99p in B&M. Right now she has one every couple of days (because of the sugar) and HiLife dry :) I sometimes feed her Applaws dry when I have the extra money.
