Kittens require a diet specifically formulated for growth, which is higher in calories, protein, and certain nutrients compared to adult cat food. Generally, kittens can transition to adult food around 12 months of age, though larger breeds may benefit from kitten food a bit longer, up to 18-24 months. The transition should be gradual, mixing increasing amounts of adult food with decreasing amounts of kitten food over 7-10 days to avoid digestive upset. Always check the specific recommendations on your chosen food's packaging and consult your veterinarian for advice tailored to your cat's specific breed and health. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.
