Burgess Cat Chicken Kitten 1.5kg
Overview
Burgess Cat Chicken Kitten is a complete dry food designed for kittens during their first year, with the same recipe also suitable for expectant and nursing mother cats. The smaller kibble size makes it easier for kitten mouths to pick up and chew, while the recipe brings together chicken-based protein, calcium, antioxidants, prebiotics and essential fatty acids to support everyday growth and development.
This is a practical everyday food for the weaning stage through to young adulthood. It can be introduced from around 4 weeks of age, softened with water or special kitten milk for very young kittens, then fed as a dry food as they grow. For kittens new to this recipe, a gradual transition over several days helps them settle onto it comfortably.

- Also suitable for pregnant and nursing cats
- Smaller kibble for kitten-sized mouths
- Calcium for bones and teeth
