Growth food that's gentle on a stomach still learning its job.
A kitten's digestive system is brand new and it shows. Loose stools through the first few months are common enough to seem normal, and they aren't — they're usually the food moving faster than a young gut can handle.
This is a full growth formula with the digestion problem solved into it. ActivBiome+, Hill's prebiotic blend, feeds the gut bacteria that are still establishing themselves, and gentle whole grains — brown rice, barley and oats — replace the wheat that most kitten foods lean on. At 27% chicken and 42% total poultry there's no compromise on the protein a growing kitten needs, and DHA is in there for brain and eye development through the window when it matters most. Suitable from weaning to twelve months, and for queens who are pregnant or nursing.
Chicken and turkey meal (chicken 27%, total poultry 42%), maize, animal fat, brown rice (4%), brewers' rice, barley, oats, minerals, digest, ground pecan shell, vegetable oil, dried beet pulp, flaxseed, dried citrus pulp, cellulose, fish oil, dried cranberries — with ActivBiome+ prebiotic blend (4%). Contains natural antioxidants (mixed tocopherols).
Store in a cool, dry place, sealed. Use within six weeks of opening. Change over slowly — ten days — and expect stools to settle over two to three weeks rather than overnight. Kittens eat little and often: four meals a day under four months, then three. If diarrhoea persists beyond a few days, or there's blood in it, see a vet rather than changing food again. Fresh water, always.

Keyed to age as well as weight — use the age band, not just the scale. Split across three or four meals while they're small. Nursing mothers can be fed freely. Fresh water, always.
