The dry kitten food that I LOVE is Chicken Soup for the Cat Lover's Soul kitten formula. My cats LOVE this brand and it is all natural and very good for them. We used to eat Lick Your Chops, but they are all in better condition with the Chicken Soup. They use several different protein sources and it tastes great.



As far as canned, I would say Wellness or Felidae. These are two of the very best canned foods on the market, and both are yummy (to the cats that is, not me!). The felidae is a cat/kitten formula with chicken, turkey, lamb and fish in chicken broth. The Wellness (which is what we eat for canned) is also very good. They have several flavors in the cat/all life stagesm (chicken, turkey, chicken/herring, turkey/salmon and beef/chicken) but only one in the specific kitten formula. Kola grew up eating mostly the cat kind because that's what the big guys eat, plus I love to give them variety. Personally I think that feeding an all life stages canned food with dry kitten food is very good. Kola was the only one of my cats who didn't kind of pork out towards the end of kittenhood and I think the mixing of varieties helped with that.



I would just stay away from anything you can find in a grocery store. Most of these super premium all-natural foods are only at small pet stores, but if you go to the website they can tell you where to get it or you can order it online. Good luck!
