Hi sifus, Im fostering some kittens currently 4 weeks old and still nursing. Will put up for adoption after their vaccinations at 8 weeks. Want to ask recommendations for kitten kibble easy to find and moderately good, not high end. So that new owner easy to take over and also purchase the food. Currently they dont eat any kibble yet but just started tasting wet food.

short term - powercat, wiskas, misha... - got some flavouring aroma. easy to get frm supermarket.

prodiet- smell no good. (2years ago)

anything better than the above but not that expensive, are mostly not easy to get frm shop.

or you can check on shopee, got alot others like reflex la, molly la, greens la, so many.. 
but only can get frm certain pet shop/online.

Thanks. I currently have Prodiet kitten, not sure if they are interested to eat, will try and see. The mum is eating that now + RC, we mix mix. Since I heard lactating mum can eat kitten kibble so I got Prodiet that time then later bought RC to mix in. Do you think RC is ok for cat approx age 5 to eat long term? I probably will keep the mum if she doesn't run away after the kittens find new homes. Just a stray cat breed but having a few health issues according to vet. Im trying my best to help her, she's in recovery from mange, respiratory infection and her BUN level from blood test is at the border (Vet says kidney not very good but still within the acceptable range, so should not feed too much wet food)

rc is very popular, alot of cats eating it worldwide.
they can make the food smell very attractive to cats.
if you can afford, of cos can con't to feed rc.
kidney issue, BUN high, vet will recomn less protein, hence the less 'can food'. U can choose the rc for °kidney' , renal type.
RC's speciality is in these, food with way less protein-renal.
Huge kibble type to clean teeth, etc etc.
All these, is not available frm other expensive brands.
Science Diet is another one, but sd is loosing out to rc in the cat department.

You can formulate your own, 'can food° add low carb cooked food etc.
my personal gripe is rc way too expensive..

I do not allow my cats on the balcony. I rent and have no way of adding wire to prevent them from jumping up on the railing. I know that one of them hates the harness too, which I bought for taking them on a flight when I moved, so I just don't allow them outside.

Now they dont eat the cheaper brand as fast. Sometimes left over until got ants. I am thinking buying RC fit 32. But i scared the auntie come back to feed her food and the cat dont eat it anymore. I cannot be buying fit 32 for her right. She dont even buy kibbles. Sometimes whiskas mix with anchovies and things.

Thank you so much for the information! Rufus drinks a lot of water though so I'm not too worried and the youngin keeps him active I will also try your "take it or leave it" method. May I know what cat food do you feed your cat(s)?
This is very helpful! Thanks for taking the time to do some research and providing some much needed information for future cat food research. Cheers!   

Thanks for sharing the findings on CR~

Btw, I was reading FB cat forum and saw Urbanwolf being quite highly recommended among the cat owners there.

But I searched here and seems this brand isnt talked about here , not sure why haha...

hey there, i bought two bags during the cat expo recently as I've never seen them before and their booth was one of the largest there.
i bought both, reflex plus and reflex high quality for kittens as i am fostering mostly kittens.

Funny how the cheaper food has less carb percentage albeit the ingredients not so good.

Last time they(not sure is manufacturer or shipper) poke alot of holes on the packaging to release air. This actually will contaminate the food. Then early this year, they didn't do it. Current batch, I'm not sure.

last year i buy alot totw don't have hole leh. i think is the shop issue. yeah if the packaging is suppose air tight but end up non air tight, sure got small hole air masuk d. contaminated.

A little update..perhaps it's not a munchkin hybrid but not sure why her legs are so short....manage to transfer her out from KL through a transporter...healthy and playful. Anybody can identify what kinda breed? Am sure it's not pure but what mix what maybe? lol

One thing though she likes to bite and scratch so any tips to make sure they don't do that will be much appreciated.

maybe you did not notice it. it was very tiny needle pin hole perforated holes on both sides. Rows and rows.

that is y most of the totw 7kg is wrapped in transparent plastic bags.

i have posted this earlier in here. leme get tht post in a while.

Urban wolf adventures.

Based on the ingredient list and the price you've posted,
This cat food looks promising.

A search online, can't find any website or any info about this brand except local msia shopee, fb etc, all local online sellers.

Means this food is targeting msia only?
Looks certainly is not an international brand.

If the packaging is only in english, lacking address, it is like CR, and many other brands, where a biz can set-up a brand name, get the food manufactured from 'somewhere' and receive in bulk and pack it locally to sell.

The big packaging, is a sticker paste on the silver bag, kinda confirms this.
You wont find international brand package their product like this.

around last year, the shop i usually buy say new packing no more transparent plastic bag. after buy 2 more round, i switch to equilibrio d. this year i never buy any totw. but anyway, i macam never bought any air tight totw if i no remember wrong lol. i didn't even know they have airtight version?

I see, do you just close the glass sliding door or you have managed to train them to not go out? If you managed to train, do let me know how.
