Directions for Use
- Adjust for Body Condition: Daily feeding amounts should be adjusted as needed to help each cat maintain an optimal body weight, with veterinary guidance sought whenever the appropriate portion size is uncertain.
- Transition Over 7 Days: Gradually increase the amount of new kibble while reducing the previous food over a full 7-day period to support a smooth and comfortable dietary changeover.
- Fresh Water Always: Fresh drinking water should be kept accessible at all times throughout the day to support adequate daily hydration alongside every meal.
- Review with Vet Regularly: A cat's nutritional requirements can shift with age, making veterinary check-ins at routine appointments important for keeping the feeding plan current.
- Keep Packaging Away: All packaging materials should be stored out of reach of both pets and children at all times to prevent potential suffocation hazards.
Additional Information
Precautions
- For Adult Cats Only: This formula is for adult cats, including those with sensitive stomachs and skin, and is not formulated for cats at other life stages.
- Not for Kittens or Pregnant Cats: Kittens and cats that are pregnant or nursing require different nutritional support and should be switched to Hill's Science Diet Kitten or Hill's Science Diet Kitten Indoor dry cat food during those life stages.
- Count All Daily Food: Treats and any supplementary foods given alongside this kibble should be factored into the cat's total daily calorie intake to avoid unintentional overfeeding.
- Feeding Chart is a Starting Point: The daily amounts in the feeding chart serve as starting references and should be adjusted based on the individual cat's body condition and veterinary guidance over time.
Possible Side Effects
- Digestive Sensitivity During Transition: Switching food abruptly may cause temporary digestive discomfort in some cats. A 7-day gradual transition is important for cats already prone to stomach sensitivities.
Storage Information
- Seal After Each Use: Reseal the bag tightly after every serving to protect the remaining food from moisture, air, and contamination.
- Store Below 100°F: Keep this kibble in a cool, dry environment at temperatures below 100°F (38°C) to preserve its freshness and nutritional quality between feedings.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: How does this grain-free cat food benefit cats with food sensitivities?
Ans: By replacing grains with yellow peas, potatoes, and potato starch, this formula eliminates a common trigger for cats with grain-related sensitivities. The highly digestible recipe is gentle on the digestive system, making it a practical everyday choice for adult cats that experience recurring stomach upset or skin reactions potentially linked to grain-containing diets.
Q2: Why is salmon used as the first ingredient in this sensitive stomach cat food?
Ans: As the primary protein source, salmon delivers quality, easily digestible protein to support lean muscle maintenance. Beyond protein, it contributes omega-3 fatty acids at 0.49% dry matter that work in combination with omega-6 fatty acids at 4.14% to support healthy skin and coat health in cats with sensitivities.
Q3: Does this grain-free salmon cat kibble contain prebiotic fiber?
Ans: Yes, this formula includes both dried beet pulp and Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) as prebiotic fiber sources. These ingredients nourish beneficial gut bacteria, support a healthy digestive environment, and help the digestive system operate gently and efficiently, making this food particularly well-suited to adult cats with recurring digestive sensitivities.
Q4: How many calories does this grain-free salmon dry cat food contain per cup?
Ans: This kibble contains 4095 kcal per kilogram and 511 kcal per measuring cup, with one 8-oz cup weighing approximately 4.4 oz. For a 10 lb adult cat, the recommended daily amount is around 1/2 cup (65 g). Portions should always be adjusted based on your cat's individual body condition and veterinary guidance.
Q6: Can I feed this grain-free salmon formula to a senior or mature adult cat?
Ans: This formula is suited to adult cats across mature and senior life stages, provided it continues to meet their nutritional needs. Since a cat's requirements can shift with age, checking in with a veterinarian at routine appointments helps confirm this formula remains appropriate and allows for any necessary feeding adjustments over time.
Q7: How should I store this grain-free salmon and yellow pea dry cat food?
Ans: Keep this kibble in a cool, dry place below 100°F (38°C), away from heat and excess moisture. Resealing the bag tightly after each serving prevents the remaining food from exposure to air, moisture, and contamination, maintaining its freshness and nutritional quality.
