  • Your kitten is unique and feeding requirements will vary with environment, age, and activity. That’s why we suggest starting with the guide on the bag and then monitoring their weight carefully as they grow and adjusting portions as needed.

    Split the daily ration into smaller portions, feed 2-3 times daily and provide plenty of fresh water.

    Serve dry or lightly moistened. See your veterinarian regularly. To help maintain freshness, we recommend sealing the bag tightly and storing it in a cool, dry location.

Make The Switch: Transition To Orijen Cat Food

Cats are often fed the same food, and sometimes a sudden food change makes it difficult for their digestive systems to adapt, which is why it’s important to introduce the new food gradually. Going slowly will give your cat time to adjust to their new food and will also reduce the chances of digestive upset.
