Storage & Transition Tips:
Store in a cool, dry place. Reseal the bag after each use to maintain freshness.
When switching from your kitten's current food, gradually introduce ORIJEN over 7–10 days by mixing increasing amounts of the new food with decreasing amounts of the old food. This helps your kitten's digestive system adjust comfortably.
Veterinary Consultation Note:
Every kitten is unique. Consult your veterinarian for specific dietary recommendations based on your kitten's health, weight, and activity level — particularly if your kitten has any known food sensitivities or health conditions.
