I want to thanks those who responded and let you know that we have decided it is best to go back to the blend of foods we usually use. Most often a combination of Purina Kitten chow and Eight in One. The food was tempting since we could get it for $10 for a 20LB bag. Money is always a consideration at the shelter, but health is much more important to us. I by no means consider myself an "expert" so I figured I would check just to make sure I was not overlooking something. I had noticed the first ingredient was not a meat item and that concerned me and the low fat content. But as I always say it never hurts to have a second opinion. Thanks for the advice. Chloe R.
