Hill’s Science Diet Kitten Chicken & Vegetables Stew Wet Cat Food (2.8 oz x 24 pouches)

Chicken and Vegetable Stew Single-Serve Kitten Wet Food

Product Description

Hill’s Science Diet Kitten Chicken & Vegetables Stew Wet Cat Food is a wholesome, vegetable-enriched stew pouch that brings a hearty, home-style format to kitten nutrition, making it a standout alternative to the smoother minced or chunk-style kitten wet foods in the same range. Real chicken in a rich chicken broth with carrots, spinach, and rice delivers a satisfying and visually engaging meal for kittens under one year, while a diverse prebiotic fiber blend including FOS, flaxseed, beet pulp, and citrus pulp supports healthy digestive development.

Benefits

Hearty Stew with Real Vegetables: Real chicken, carrots, spinach, and rice come together in a rich chicken broth to create a hearty, wholesome stew that many kittens prefer over smooth pâté or minced formats.

Most Diverse Prebiotic Fiber Blend: Includes FOS, flaxseed, dried beet pulp, dried citrus pulp, powdered cellulose, oat fiber, and ground pecan shells, making this the most fiber-diverse kitten wet food pouch in the Science Diet range for comprehensive digestive support.

Potassium Citrate Inclusion: Potassium Citrate is included in this kitten stew formula, an ingredient not found in the other kitten canned or pouch formats, contributing to a balanced urinary mineral environment from an early age.

Pressed Cranberries in the Recipe: Alongside FOS and a diverse prebiotic blend, pressed cranberries are included as a natural antioxidant ingredient, contributing to the wholesome character of this stew alongside the vegetables and fruit inclusions.

Balanced Minerals for Bone Development: Calcium at 1.28% and phosphorus at 1.00% dry matter work together to build strong bones and healthy teeth from weaning all the way through to one year of age.

High-Quality Chicken for Muscle Development: Real chicken, as the primary named protein, delivers essential amino acids that support the rapid lean muscle development growing kittens require throughout every stage of their first year.

Easy-Open Single-Serve Pouch: The convenient single-serve format is quick to open and effortless to serve with no measuring required, making feeding simple and hygienic at every mealtime for kittens up to one year old.

Directions for Use

Transition Over 7 Days: When switching to this food for the first time, slowly increase the new food while reducing the old over a full week to prevent digestive discomfort.

Adjust for Growth Stage and Weight: Use the feeding chart as a starting reference and adjust daily amounts regularly as your kitten grows and moves through each stage.

Fresh Water Always: Keep fresh drinking water accessible to the kitten at all times throughout the day to support proper daily hydration alongside every served pouch.

Pair with Kitten Dry Food: This stew pouch can be served alone or alongside Hill’s Science Diet dry kitten food to add moisture and mealtime variety throughout the kitten’s first year.

Additional Information

Precautions

For Kittens Up to 1 Year Only: This formula is recommended for kittens from weaning until 1 year of age. Unlike other kitten wet food formulas in the Science Diet range, it is not verified for pregnant or nursing cats and should not be fed to gestating or lactating adult female cats.

Not for Pregnant or Nursing Cats: Pregnant or nursing cats require a different formulation to meet their elevated nutritional needs. They should be fed the Hill’s Science Diet Kitten Liver & Chicken Entrée or Savory Turkey Entrée, both of which are verified for gestating and lactating cats.

Not for Adult or Obese-Prone Cats: This formula is designed for rapid growth and should not be fed to adult cats or cats prone to weight gain, as the higher protein, fat, and caloric density are not suited to their needs.

Adjust Portions as Kitten Grows: Feeding amounts change at each growth stage, so review and update daily portions regularly to prevent under- or overfeeding as your kitten matures.

Possible Side Effects

Digestive Sensitivity on Transition: Moving to a new food format too quickly may cause temporary digestive discomfort, which is why the full 7-day gradual transition is important before fully replacing the previous food.

Storage Information

Refrigerate After Opening: Once a pouch is opened, cover any leftover food and pop it in the fridge right away to keep it fresh and safe for the next meal.

Store Unopened Pouches Properly: Keep unopened pouches in a cool, dry place away from heat and moisture exposure.

Keep Packaging Away: Store all pouches and packaging safely out of reach of both pets and children at all times to prevent potential suffocation hazards.
