INGREDIENTS
Chicken By Product Meal- A source of high quality protein and essential amino acids, fat, and trace minerals. This ingredient promotes strong muscles and skeletal system, enhances palatability and promotes healthy skin and coat.
Corn gluten meal- Gluten is the protein part of any whole grain- in this case, it's from the whole corn kernel. Corn gluten meal comes from the production of vegetable oil and is an excellent source of protein
Soy flour- comes from finely ground soy beans, after their oil has been removed, and it packs a protein punch

RECOMMENDED DAILY FEEDING AMOUNTS
Using a standard 8 oz measuring cup
Weight Feeding Amount
(lbs) (cups)
5 - 9 1/2 - 3/4
10 - 14 3/4 - 1-1/4
These amounts are averages and your cat's needs may differ. Feeding amounts should be adjusted as necessary to help your cat maintain an ideal body condition.
FEEDING KITTENS
Kittens generally nibble solid foods at 3 - 4 weeks of age. Keep moistened Purina Cat Chow Naturals available to these kittens at all times. Just add one part liquid to three parts Purina Cat Chow Naturals, changing frequently to ensure freshness. After weaning, at 6 - 8 weeks of age, kittens will normally eat dry or moistened food at will. Start a self-feeding program, leaving food in the dish at all times. Feeding amounts should be adjusted as necessary to help your kitten maintain an ideal body condition.
FEEDING FOR REPRODUCTION
Purina Cat Chow Naturals provides the extra nutrition needed by reproducing females in stages of gestation and lactation. Food consumption may vary during gestation, so feed the amount needed to maintain the pregnant female's good body condition. Food intake may double or even quadruple during lactation.
FEEDING TIP
Changes in your cat's diet should be made gradually to allow your cat to become accustomed to a new food. Substitute small amounts of the new food for the old food, gradually increasing the amount of the new food while decreasing the old food, over a period of 7 - 10 days. This gradual transition will help avoid dietary upsets.
Provide adequate fresh water in a clean container daily.
For your pet's health, see your veterinarian regularly.
