Description
TL;DR: Oven-Baked Tradition Chicken Kitten Dry Cat Food is an oven-baked kibble made with fresh deboned chicken, fruits, vegetables, and added DHA. It's formulated for kittens in their first year of growth and comes in 2.5 lb and 5 lb bags.

Unlike extruded kibble, this food is slow oven-baked, a gentler process that helps preserve nutrients and deliver a naturally rich flavour kittens respond to.
