The same food suits a kitten from about one month, when it starts investigating solids, through to four months, and the queen in late gestation and through lactation. That is deliberate rather than a shortcut: a nursing mother's energy and nutrient needs run close to a growing kitten's, and a litter learns to eat by copying her from the same dish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEverything about the format is aimed at a mouth that has barely any teeth. The dry kibble is made extremely small and soft, so a kitten can manage it while the milk teeth are still coming through, and the mousse is whipped to an ultra-soft texture that can be licked rather than chewed. In practice most people use both: mousse from weaning, with the dry kibble softened in a little warm water at first and offered plain once the kitten is chewing confidently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNutritionally it carries DHA, an omega-3 fatty acid, to support brain development and healthy vision, an antioxidant complex including vitamins E and C to support natural defences at a stage when a kitten's own immunity is still building on top of what it received from its mother, and MOS prebiotics with highly digestible protein to support a settling gut microbiome.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePeekAPaw stocks the dry food in 400g, 2kg, 4kg and 10kg, and the Ultra Soft Mousse in 195g cans, singly or in a 12-pack. From around four months a kitten should move on to a standard or breed-specific kitten food, so it is worth buying a bag size you will finish in that window.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShop related\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/royal-canin-kitten-food\"\u003eRoyal Canin Kitten Food\u003c\/a\u003e — the next step from four months\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/royal-canin-sterilised\"\u003eRoyal Canin Sterilised\u003c\/a\u003e — Kitten Sterilised covers 6 to 12 months after desexing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/royal-canin-cat-food\"\u003eRoyal Canin Cat Food\u003c\/a\u003e — the full Royal Canin cat range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/wet-cat-food\"\u003eWet Cat Food\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/dry-cat-food\"\u003eDry Cat Food\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/royal-canin\"\u003eRoyal Canin\u003c\/a\u003e — everything we stock from the brand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"royal-canin-mother-babycat","title":"Royal Canin Mother \u0026 Babycat Dry Cat Food","description":"\u003cp\u003eROYAL CANIN® Mother \u0026amp; Babycat is a complete dry food for gestating and lactating queens and for kittens aged 1 to 4 months, during the crucial first stage of growth.
