Details
FirstMate’s Chicken with Blueberries is a grain-free cat food featuring a single source meat protein. This limited-ingredient diet allows for easy digestion, with 92% of protein from free-run chicken and 8% of protein from potatoes. Blueberries promote a healthy immune system, urinary tract, increased eyesight and memory function, and provide a source of dietary fiber. FirstMate’s grain-free and gluten-free diets are a wonderful choice for kittens and cats at all stages of life, and have a reduced chance of allergic reaction.
About The Manufacturer
FirstMate founder, Michael Florian came to be in the pet food business through an interesting route. After years as a commercial fisherman, Michael began manufacturing fish feed the burgeoning salmon farming industry in British Columbia. Dogs were used on the farms to guard the stock from predators, but they enjoyed feeding themselves with the fish feed. Michael began to formulate a dog food that would keep them satisfied and use the same high quality ingredients, and FirstMate was born.

Transition Instructions
It takes time to transition your pet to a new food without having digestive upset. Over the course of one to two weeks, you should gradually switch from the old food to the new. Start with a 75% old to 25% new mix, then 50:50, and finally 25:75, until you have switched to FirstMate food entirely.
