High-Protein Dry Nutrition Designed for Growing Kittens
Tiki Cat Born Carnivore for Kittens is a grain-free dry food specially formulated to nourish the rapid growth and development of kittens. As born carnivores, kittens require a high-protein, high-fat, meat-based diet from the very start. Deboned chicken is the first ingredient, supported by chicken meal and dried egg product for concentrated protein and a complete amino acid profile. DHA from salmon oil supports healthy brain and vision development, while inulin (prebiotic) and pumpkin support a developing digestive system. Bacillus coagulans adds probiotic support for gut health, and spinach contributes natural antioxidants - all in a carefully selected ingredient list built for kitten biology.

Feeding Guide
Feeding amounts vary with age, size, and activity level. Kittens generally require more calories per pound of body weight than adult cats. Introduce dry food around week five and provide as much as kittens will consume from weaning until 12 months of age. Always ensure your kitten has access to fresh, clean water. Consult your veterinarian if you are unsure how much to feed.

Frequently Asked Questions
At what age can I start feeding this to my kitten?
Tiki Cat Born Carnivore for Kittens can be introduced as early as week five, when kittens begin transitioning from mother's milk to solid food. It is formulated to support kittens through 12 months of age.
Why is DHA important for kittens?
DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) is an omega-3 fatty acid critical for the development of the brain and retina during early life. Kittens cannot produce sufficient DHA on their own, making dietary sources like salmon oil essential during this growth stage.
Is this formula grain-free?
Yes. This recipe contains no grains. Peas, chickpeas, and tapioca are used as carbohydrate sources in place of corn, wheat, or rice.
Can I mix this with wet kitten food?
Yes. Mixing Tiki Cat Born Carnivore dry food with a wet kitten formula such as Tiki Cat Baby increases overall moisture intake and adds variety. This is a common feeding approach for kittens transitioning to solid food.
