Provide a dish of clean, fresh water at all times. If your kitten refuses water, you can moisten this food before serving. For your pet's health, see your veterinarian regularly. Store in a cool, dry place.

**As kittens near adulthood, their calorie needs may decrease. Continue to adjust the amount you feed to maintain your kitten in ideal body condition and avoid excess weight gain.

KITTEN FEEDING INSTRUCTIONS.

Kittens generally nibble solid foods at three to four weeks of age. Keep moistened Pro Plan Kitten Chicken & Rice Formula available to these kittens at all times. After weaning, at six to eight weeks of age, kittens will normally eat dry or moistened food at will. If water is added, use no more than one part warm (not hot) liquid to three parts Pro Plan Kitten Chicken & Rice Formula , changing frequently to ensure freshness.

FEEDING FOR REPRODUCTION.

Pro Plan Kitten Chicken & Rice Formula provides all the nutrients needed during reproduction. It is not necessary to add supplemental vitamins or minerals. Food consumption can vary during gestation. Feed the amount needed to maintain ideal body condition in the pregnant female. After the kittens are born, feed the nursing female all she wants to eat. Food intake can be two to three times greater by the fourth week of lactation as it was prior to when the female was bred. Food intake can be increased by feeding Pro Plan moistened with water and feeding twice daily.

MAKING THE SWITCH TO PRO PLAN.

Although you'll be anxious to see the difference Pro Plan can make in your kitten, please allow seven to ten days to ease the transition from your kitten's current food. This will help prevent stomach upsets. Each day, simply feed a little less of the previous food and a little more of Pro Plan until you're feeding Pro Plan exclusively.

FEEDING FOR ADULT MAINTENANCE

It is important that you feed Pro Plan to your adult cat "free choice" throughout the day, rather than as just a single feeding only at mealtime. Food intake required to maintain ideal body condition will vary, depending on age, activity and environment. Watch your cat's weight and adjust food amounts accordingly. If you have a kitten, pregnant or nursing cat, you should continue feeding Pro Plan Kitten Chicken & Rice Formula.

MAKING THE SWITCH TO PRO PLAN

Although you'll be anxious to see the difference Pro Plan can make in your cat, please allow seven to ten days to ease the transition from your cat's current food. This will help prevent stomach upsets. Each day, simply feed a little less of the previous food and a little more of Pro Plan until you're feeding Pro Plan exclusively.
