DS bought 'senior' cat food by mistake

[FlamedToACrisp]

What's the difference? Does it matter?

Not that I actually know how old 'my' cat is, as she's a local stray I have just started feeding.

As you can see from the photo, Calico is weak with lack of nourishment and requires 10 meals a day. Or so she claims.

how much of it did he buy?

We've done this before, if it's just one of the small boxes then I'd say it's fine.

I suspect it's probably lower in calories, the odd box won't matter. My three year olds have had kitten, 1+ and 8+ food this year alone, DH doesn't always check, and they're fine.

I think it has fewer calories as they tend to be more sedentary

Poor starving love. Are you sure she doesn't need 20 meals a day?

What a beautiful girl. I don't think it'll do her any harm.

It's a pack of 12 pouches.

Normally less crunchy and easier to digest.

Probably not a problem as long as she doesn’t turn her nose up at the correct food later.

Cute calico OP

Shouldn’t be a problem. Will have lower calories and perhaps a different vitamin content. Won’t really make much of a difference even long term

Lower calorie you say... 🤔 Maybe my lot need to be on senior food, little lumps.

There may also be some extra vitamins for joints. Can't imagine it'll do any harm.

She's built to last!

Give it to cats protection and buy her the right one for her age.
