I just adopted a kitten and the girl who was fostering him was feeding him Royal Canin kitten food. I bought a bag, but I plan to gradually switch him to something better. However, I am running into a problem... I need to find a kitten food without ANY chicken. That seems to be impossible! The reason is that my dog is highly allergic to chicken.. Any at all and he get awful hot spots. I am keeping the kitten's food separated from the dog but stuff happens, and I'm not willing to jeopardize my dogs health. So, any suggestions on chicken free kitten food? I've found some brands of chicken free cat food.. But my kitten is only 9 weeks old. Does it make a difference if it's not specifically for kittens?
