Blue Buffalo
$38.99 - $56.99
Inspired by the spirit of the lynx, this BLUE Wilderness recipe for kittens is packed with delicious, protein-rich deboned chicken to help build strong muscles, plus DHA to support your kitten's cognitive development.
BLUE's exclusive LifeSource Bits are a precise blend of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals carefully selected by veterinarians and animal nutritionists that help support:
And LifeSource Bits are cold-formed to help retain the potency of their ingredients. This means that they minimize the amount of heat that LifeSource Bits are exposed to during the manufacturing process. It’s the same concept as when you cook vegetables at high heat — the longer you do, the more heat-sensitive nutrients are lost.

Kittens in their first year require two to three times more food than adult cats. Feed kittens at 3-4 weeks of age all the moistened BLUE they can eat three to four times per day. When kittens begin eating dry food, continue to feed all they can eat three to four times per day or allow the dry food to be available at all times.
