Transitioning your cat to a new food should be done gradually over 7-10 days to avoid gastrointestinal upset like vomiting or diarrhea. Start by mixing a small amount of the new food (about 1/4) with 3/4 of the old food. Over the next week, slowly increase the proportion of the new food while decreasing the old, aiming for a 50/50 mix by day 3-4, and then 3/4 new food by day 6-7. By day 10, your cat should ideally be eating 100% new food. If your cat shows any signs of digestive upset, slow down the transition period.
