Well, the difference really is in the amount of fat & protein in the foods. Kitten food has more of both. If the adult cat eats it she may gain weight, but she may just begin to eat a bit less. Conversly, the kitten, may grow ever so slightly slower & she may eat more of the adult food than she would of the kitten food. IMO they usually balance the situation out pretty nicely by themselves & I'd say 'don't worry about it'. I will say though that switching them both over to a premium food such as Iams or Nutro would be great for them. They really are worth the extra $ & save you in litterbox waste & odor. Also they will eat far less of it than they will grocery brands. Still, whatever works best for you will be fine as long as you listen to your critters!-- Jennifer

I felt a warm rasping at my throat, then came the aweful truth, which chilled me to the heart and sent the blood surging through my brain. Some great animal was lying on me, and now licking my throat.



Where did this cat come from??
