Disclaimer: Product information and usage guidelines are provided by the manufacturer. Always use products as directed on the label and consult your veterinarian before use if you have any concerns regarding your pet's health.
Directions for Use
- Adjust for Weight: Fine-tune daily portions as needed to keep the kitten at a healthy and comfortable body weight throughout each growth stage.
- Transition Gradually: Slowly mix increasing amounts of this new food with decreasing amounts of the old food across a full 7-day period.
- Fresh Water Daily: Always keep a bowl of fresh drinking water available to the kitten alongside every meal throughout the day.
- Review With Vet: Since a kitten's nutritional needs change as it grows, reviewing daily amounts at each vet visit keeps things on track.
Additional Information
Precautions
- Kittens Only: This formula is made specifically for kittens from weaning through one year and is not appropriate for adult cats.
- Not for Pregnant Cats: This formula has not been verified for pregnant or nursing cats and should not be fed during those life stages.
- Update Portions Regularly: Daily amounts shift across each age bracket, so adjusting portions at each developmental stage helps prevent over- or underfeeding.
Possible Side Effects
- Digestive Sensitivity: Moving to a new food too quickly can sometimes cause temporary digestive discomfort in growing kittens.
Storage Information
- Refrigerate After Opening: Always cover and refrigerate any leftover food after opening a can to keep it fresh and safe.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What makes Hill's Healthy Cuisine different from regular kitten wet food?
Ans: The Healthy Cuisine range is built around a home-style stew format that gives kittens a more textured, satisfying eating experience compared to standard smooth or minced kitten wet foods. This chicken and rice medley delivers that same enjoyable experience while still providing complete and balanced developmental nutrition for growing kittens.
Q2: Can I mix this kitten stew into dry kitten food as a topper?
Ans: Yes, this food works both as a complete standalone meal and as a tasty topper mixed into dry kitten kibble. Adding it as a topper brings extra moisture, flavor, and variety to the feeding routine, which is particularly helpful for kittens who need a little encouragement to eat or enjoy a mixed daily diet.
Q3: Why is this kitten's healthy cuisine not recommended for pregnant or nursing cats?
Ans: This formula has been verified by AAFCO feeding tests for growing kittens only. Pregnant and nursing cats have different nutritional demands that this formula has not been tested to meet. For those life stages, Hill's recommends switching to the Kitten Liver & Chicken Entrée or Kitten Savory Turkey Entrée, both of which carry the appropriate AAFCO verification.
Q4: Does this kitten stew contain real vegetables?
Ans: Yes, this stew includes real carrots and spinach alongside chicken in a chicken broth base. These wholesome vegetables contribute to the home-style stew character of the Healthy Cuisine range and add natural flavor and ingredient variety that make this a more nutritionally diverse option compared to simple single-protein kitten wet foods.
Q5: How many cans does a 6 lb kitten aged 7 to 12 months need per day?
Ans: According to the manufacturer's feeding chart, a 6 lb kitten in the 7 to 12 month age bracket needs approximately 4 1/4 cans per day as a starting amount. This should be adjusted based on the kitten's individual body condition and whether Hill's dry kitten food is also being served alongside the wet food daily.
Q6: Does this kitten's healthy cuisine stew contain taurine?
Ans: Yes, taurine is included as a direct ingredient in this formula. Cats cannot produce sufficient taurine on their own, so getting it through food is essential at every life stage. For kittens specifically, taurine plays an important role in supporting healthy heart function and normal vision development during the first year of life.
Q7: Can I rotate this chicken and rice stew with other Hill's kitten wet foods?
Ans: Yes, rotating this stew with other Hill's Science Diet kitten wet foods like the Kitten Tender Chicken Dinner can or Kitten Liver & Chicken Entrée is a great way to add mealtime variety. All formulas in the kitten range deliver complete and balanced nutrition, so rotating between them keeps feeding consistent while giving kittens different flavors to enjoy.

If a destination, shipping service, or product is not eligible for delivery, checkout will not offer that shipping option.

Orders are generally processed within 1–5 business days before shipment. Processing time is separate from carrier transit time.
Our order cut-off time is 6:00 PM Pacific Time (PT). Orders placed after the cut-off time, on weekends, or on applicable holidays begin processing on the next business day.
Processing may include order verification and preparation for shipment.

We ship to eligible international destinations. Available international shipping services, shipping charges, and estimated delivery times vary by destination and are displayed at checkout.
For eligible international orders, applicable import duties and taxes are calculated and collected at checkout where required. When these charges apply, the order is shipped on a duties-and-taxes-paid basis so that the same import charges should not be collected again at delivery.
International delivery estimates may be affected by carrier operations, customs processing, local holidays, weather, or other events outside normal transit conditions.
5. Tracking
When tracking is available, you will receive shipment confirmation with tracking information after the order has shipped. Please allow up to 48 hours for tracking information to become active after the carrier receives the shipment.
6. Address Accuracy and Changes
Please review your shipping address carefully before submitting an order. If you notice an address error, contact us as soon as possible. We will try to help before shipment, but an address change cannot be guaranteed once fulfillment or carrier processing has begun.
Additional carrier or re-delivery charges resulting from an incorrect or incomplete address may be the customer's responsibility where permitted by law.
7. Delayed or Lost Shipments
If your shipment has not arrived within the estimated delivery timeframe, please contact us. We will review the tracking information, work with the carrier when necessary, and assist with an appropriate resolution based on the circumstances.
Delivery estimates are not guarantees and may be affected by carrier delays, weather, public holidays, customs processing, or other transportation disruptions.
