I also use Purina foods. I feel they are a pretty good company and have felt safe feeding it to them, even through the recall and all that. Righ now we are still doing kitten chow, which is getting pricey with the 3 of them. I may be soon switching to regular. Last time I had to buy off brand but it seemed ok. I bought the Walmart Special Kitty Kitten good. The ingrediants and nutrition were nearly identicle to the Purina kitten. So I think its ok for awhile.
