Kitten Chicken & Rice Formula
Chicken comes first, then chicken meal and brown rice, in this dry kitten food with at least 34% protein and 22% fat. A cup is 460 calories, and Diamond Naturals says it meets AAFCO's Cat Food Nutrient Profiles for all life stages, so it isn't limited to kittens.

Labels print these numbers with the water still in, which makes a can look weak next to a bag. The dry-matter column takes the water out, so the two compare fairly.

Where to buy
Store links go to each retailer’s own product page. PawFYI isn’t paid for them, and a store never changes the numbers. If that changes, anything paid will be labeled “Sponsored”. How we make money
