When can a kitten start Cat Chow Kitten?
The feeding table for Cat Chow Kitten starts in the first month, at a few dozen grams, offered three or four times daily. The page says kittens nibble solids around 3 to 4 weeks and should stay on this bag for 12 months.

What does the DHA line on Cat Chow Kitten mean?
