Recommended daily amount (g/day):
PRO PLAN® Kitten should be introduced at 3-4 weeks of age. A little water can be added initially if needed to make eating easier. Increase the quantity of food offered as the kitten grows. For pregnant or lactating cats, feed as much as needed and a minimum of 70g/day or 100 g/day respectively. Consult your veterinarian or https://www.purina.co.uk/brands/pro-plan for more information. Each kitten is different; depending on activity level and body condition, food amounts and/or time allowed to eat may need to be adjusted. Clean, fresh drinking water should always be available.

Reviews
I have a cat - Siberian breed. And he loved this dry food, he is 9 months old and the size of the pieces involved are good enough for my baby. He seemed eager to eat it and enjoyed it and was always waiting for his top-up! His fur seems to be shinier and healthier too. Also, the size of the pack is great as it is enough for some time.
My Kitten Buddy will eat just about anything (shoes included!!) But dry food can be hit and miss!! Previous brands he would nibble at however Purina Pro Plan hits the spot. Upon pouring into his bowl, he immediately started tucking in and regularly has empty food bowls. We always make sure he has dry food and water while we're at work so he can nibble throughout the day. This is the first time his food bowl has been empty regularly. The results? His coat is shinier, hes happier and he can't wait for his next meal!! We will certainly buy these again and continue with them as he grows!!
To be honest, I was skeptical that my kitten (Tigga) wouldn't havs taken a liking to the Purina ProPlan dry food, as in the past he has shunned dry food and only prefers Felix Kitten wet food- he is very peculiar in what he consumes!
However, I was proven quite wrong! After filling his bowl, he instantly took a strong liking to the Purina ProPlan dry food. As a pet owner, I truly want the best product for my kitten, in respect to taste and nutrition to help support my kittens wellbeing. With the Purina ProPlan Optistart, I feel that I am doing just that! Tigga clearly loves the chicken dry food and I know it is developed from high-quality ingredients to give my kitten the best nutritional start in life. The product contains vitamin C & D, DHA and colostrum to help support your kittens natural defences. The DHA is derived from fish oil for healthy brain and eye development and balanced minerals for strong bones and teeth.
I am confident that using Purina ProPlan, I am giving my kitten the absolute best, with respect to taste and nurtional content. I would highly recommend this to other kitten owners to help promote a healthy start to your kittens future. I am extremely satisfied and impressed with Purina ProPlan Optistart.
My kitten really enjoys this product. He gets so excited when it’s dinner time. He is able to eat them well because there small. His coat looks very healthy. My kitten has enjoyed these so much he will no longer eat the ones I feed him before so I have switched over to this brand. Overall I’m extremely happy with this product and so is my kitty
