Can I feed my new kitten high protein adult cat food like Crave?
Crave is formulated to meet AAFCO nutritional standards, which is great, but I don't see that this food is a kitten food. It looks like an adult cat food to me (but I could be wrong as I can't see the front of the bag!). Reign needs a kitten formulated food to meet the specific nutritional needs to support her growth,and that not only includes more protein, but also more calcium and higher calories. This is why kittens should only be given a kitten food until they are a year old. I would switch her to a kitten food, and when she is a year old, it will be fine to feed her this food. Best of luck.

My dog only eats one brand of food. How to transition a picky eater?
Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Dom is adorable! I think that if he consistently eats the Crave then I would feed him that. I know it is pricey but it may save you in the long run from buying all different types of food to tempt him. Look for pet stores that offer discounts or a frequent buyers program. Look online for cheaper prices. The other option is to buy one food and stick it out. Put it down and if he refuses to eat with in a period of time remove it. Try again next meal time. Healthy dogs usually do not chose starvation and will eventually eat. It may take 3 days. You can try adding water at the 3 day mark. Personally I would buy what he likes. I hope this helps and I wish yo u and Dom the best!

Is my dog food for puppies or adults? Can I add human gravy?
Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! If the bag says it is for "All Life stages" then it is fine for growth (meaning for puppies). I would try to not add human foods. If your dogs won't eat this food well I would try a different brand or try adding water to the dry food or even add a tablespoon of canned food with water. Adding human foods is a slippery slope. Good luck!

Can I keep feeding my puppy's all life stages food when she's an adult?
If your puppy is doing well on this food, I would certainly recommend not switching at this point. If you are concerned about the calorie content for your adult dog, you can calculate her testing energy requirement (body weight in Kg times 30 plus 70) and then divide by the number of kCals per cup of the food to determine how much you should be feeding.

Is a dry food and organ diet sufficient for my adult dog's health?
You have a lot of flexibility since she's a young/middle age adult, and I'm assuming she's healthy. Basically any food made by a reputable company is going to be fine for her. There has been more and more evidence coming out recently that grain-free diets aren't healthy for dogs (linked to a particular type of heart failure called Dilated Cardiomyopathy) and raw food also presents risk of salmonella and e.coli to both the dog and family around the dog, so I'd generally recommend staying away from both of those options. The brands I like are Hills, Purina, and Royal Canin because they have veterinary nutritionists on staff, have good quality control, and generally make solid products. I hope that helps a bit!
