Daily Feeding Guide

Helpful Tips
• These amounts are a starting point only. Your pet may need less or more food to maintain proper weight. Adjust as needed. If you are unsure, ask your veterinarian.
• Feeding this food for the first time? Mix increasing amounts of your pet's new food with decreasing amounts of the old food over a 7-day period.
• When using with canned food, decrease the amount of dry food to avoid overfeeding.
• Keep fresh water available at all times!
• We recommend that you take your pet to the veterinarian at least twice a year for regular health check-ups.
• Your pet's nutritional needs change with each lifestage. Continue to give her the same precise and balanced nutrition by transitioning your cat to one of the Hill's® Science Diet® Mature Adult pet foods once she reaches 7 years of age.
• Science Diet is available in a wide variety of dry foods for your cat's unique needs. Canned cat food is also available from Science Diet in a variety of delicious textures and flavors that your cat will love.
• To prevent suffocation, keep this plastic bag out of the reach of pets and children.
