To help your pet adjust without digestive upset, we recommend transitioning gradually over 7 to 10 days:
- Days 1–2: Start with 25% new food mixed with 75% of their current food.
- Days 3–4: Go to a 50/50 mix of new and old.
- Days 5–6: Shift to 75% new food and just 25% of the old.
- Day 7+: Full switch to 100% new food!
Some pets might do well with a slightly faster transition, while others (especially those with sensitive stomachs or food allergies) might need a bit more time—listen to your pet and adjust as needed.
