Zooplus have got a good range of high quality wet foods at good prices. It doesn't matter too much that the Applaws wet isn't complete as you feed dry food each day too which is complete.

Other than for slow maturing breeds like Maine Coons and NFCs I'd feed adult food from as soon as the cat was neutered as their calorie requirements drop considerably after neutering.

I've only ever had one from a kitten but I started her on adult at 6 months because she was stealing the other cats food anyway!

Usually the packets state from one year but I amnot at all convinced that they need kitten food anyway. If they have a good diet they will get all they need from the adult version anyway.

It will say on the packet usually. Most adult foods start from 1 year+  ;)
