Once upon a time before we realized we had other options, KMR Kitten Milk Replacer Powder seemed like a logical choice to supplement whatever Buddy was able to eat on his own when he was going through yet another rough patch. But now that we've been using CatSure and he's been doing pretty well on that, we were just wondering if there would be any benefit to keeping the KMR Kitten Milk Replacer Powder or similar products in his rotation when he needs a little extra nutritional help.

FWIW, our order of Oxbow Carnivore Care arrived yesterday, so we'll be including that in our rotation as well. But since it contains poultry meal, and Buddy has problems with some forms of poultry, I'm just trying to get all of our ducks lined up, so to speak.

the higher protein and fat content in the KMR could possibly be useful for him down the road.
