 SUGGESTED DAILY FEEDING GUIDE FOR KITTENS
Feeding Kittens Newly weaned kittens can be offered Natural Balance® Ultra-Premium Dry Cat Food moistened with warm water. You can also mix in Natural Balance® Canned Cat Food for ease of feeding. Kittens should be fed free choice to promote healthy growth and adequate weight gain. Food intake requirement may vary depending on age, activity, and environment, and should be adjusted accordingly.

We recommend that you do not add vitamins, minerals or any other supplements, except upon the advice of a veterinarian. When switching your cat’s diet, the change should be made gradually, by replacing the current food with increasing portions of Natural Balance® Ultra Premium Cat Food. The change should be completed after 3 to 5 days. The maintenance of proper body weight is most important for your cat’s health. Consult your veterinarian for specific weight recommendations for your cat. Remember, fresh clean water should be available at all times!

Consult your veterinarian for specific weight recommendations for your cat. Remember, fresh clean water should be available at all times!

The Adult Cat Adult cats should be fed either once or twice per day. When you first start feeding Natural Balance® Ultra Premium Dry Cat Food, we suggest to start with the amounts recommended in the Table. Energy requirements vary with environmental conditions, temperature and activity of your cat. The amount of food should always be adjusted to suit your cat’s needs. If you would like to provide a special treat for your cat, you can add small amounts of Natural Balance® Canned Cat Food.

Gestating and Lactating Queens will consume more, usually 1/2 to 2 cups daily.

The Older Cat As your cat begins to age, his energy expenditure will decrease. Decreasing the amount of food accordingly will allow for the maintenance of proper body weight for less active cat. Older cats are sometimes more reluctant to eat hard foods. Adding larger amounts of Natural Balance® Canned Cat Food will make the most "finicky" eater enjoy their daily meals.

Testimonials
We have 3 cats ages 15, 15, and 19. After switching to the Natural Balance Ultra Premium Cat Food. The oldest is gaining weight, which she desperately needed to do and the other 2 are losing weight. All three cats are more active and their coats have improved.They look and act healthier. Even their litter habits have improved. You have 5 very satisfied customers, me, my wife and 3 much happier cats. - Joe Zinich
CatsWe rescued a scrawny 12 week old kitten over a year ago. She was healthy overall, but for some reason would throw up a couple of times a week and didn't gain much weight. Our vet could not find a reason for this, just a "delicate stomach". Over the next 6 months, we tried a dozen different brands of kitten food and even adult food - nothing helped, not even the so-called "organic" mainstream cat foods. She kept getting sick and her fur was dry and dull. After reading up on the terrible ingredients in many of the cat foods we had tried, we decided to go all natural - and found Natural Balance® Ultra Premium Cat Formula. Our kitten, Dulce LOVED it from the moment we gave it to her. After about a week on the Natural Balance food, she stopped getting sick! She filled out, her coat became shiny and glossy and she had twice as much energy. Seven months later and she hasn't been sick since! We also adopted a year-old shelter cat recently who was lethargic with dry fur - and now she's fat, glossy and full of energy too. Now we tell everyone about the wonderful food, including our vet! Thank you Natural Balance! - Chris & Laura, Seattle, WA
Squirt & PhoebeI got my cat Squirt from the Oregon Humane Society in December 2004. He weighed 8 lbs. when I got him. He was so thin you could feel his ribs, so skittish anything scared him, and his fur was sparse and brittle. I fed him Natural Balance Ultra dry cat food from the start and his transformation has been incredible. After a few months, he gained some necessary kitty-ounces, became a little more adjusted to life outside the Humane Society, but the most amazing change was his fur. It is now soft and thick and luxurious! His sister, Phoebe, who I've had since she was a kitten, has only been fed Natural Balance and her fur feels as soft as a rabbit's coat. I often get compliments on how beautiful her coat is. So kudos to Natural Balance, and thank you for creating such a healthy and SAFE product for my "kids." Squirt is on top, Phoebe is the one laying in luxury. Annie
LonaMy 19-year-old cat, Lona, wasn't eating anything. She was diagnosed with a stomach virus and extreme gas. We thought we were going to lose her. She originally was one of 14 sick, neglected cats owned by a neighbor; they had fed them the cheapest cat food, none had ever been spayed or neutered, and eventually they were all abandoned. An exterminator came to trap them all, but I begged him to let us gather and place them. Over three months, one by one they entered and recuperated in our sun room. We took them all in, and were able to save 8 of them, in addition to 2 thrown from a moving car onto our front lawn. Lona, our little girl, is now eating due to Natural Balance® Ultra Premium Cat Food. Comparing it to our veterinary diet, the ingredients are purer and palatable. Thank you!!! My father, who recently passed, loved them all. We know both he from heaven and you saved our Lona. Take care, Sandra Lee and Ann Mott, Lona, K.C., Smoochie, Ashley, Tigesey, BEGE, Blackio, Benny, Sammy, and Shoddy Mott.
NickiI have Nicki, a 18 month old Bengal Female. I have had her since she was 7 months old.Bengals do not do well on any Corn/Corn Meal products. This is a known fact.I have tried many, many (did I say many) "Premium" Cat Foods. Nicki had a problem with a loose stool ever since I got her from the Breeder. She was checked several times by her Vet and nothing has been found. After trying many foods to help with this problem, I heard about your product and gave it a try. Nicki has been on your food for 2 months now and the results are wonderful! Nicki loves your food and it has helped her problem greatly! She now has a semi hard, naturally formed stool and I know she is much happier and healther now. Her coat is silky smooth and shiny. Her energy level is normal for a Bengal (ask any Bengal owner about the "Happy Hour"). Thank you Dick for getting involved in the development of this fine Cat food and for your work with all the animals. A Company that helps animals like your's does deserves the support of all pet owners! You've got mine! Nicki will continue on your Natural Balance® Ultra Premium Cat Formula for a very long healthy and happy life. Regards, Alan
