You keep "finding" or "thinking" or "guessing" that one is better is than the other. It is a vicous circle LOL!
I totally agree!

Many average pet owners buy a certain food because of strong marketing and advertising budgets and don't take the time to research the actual ingredients in the food. Many owners are shocked when they start reading the labels and understanding what is in pet food.

Also, you have to look at the history behind the company making this food. How long have they been in business? What quality controls do they place in their manufacturing facilities? How many recalls have happened over the last 5 years with their products? Who is actually doing the testing of the product? It really ends up being a lot of research if you want to find out the facts behind the marketing gimmicks.

It's also a process of experimentation between the amount of money you want to spend, what food is readily available in your area, and what your cat will *actually* eat. You can buy a good food, but the cat won't necessarily eat it!

I am no expert, I just try to read everything I can to make myself more aware on the subject.

Good luck in finding a food for your kitten (and ferret)!
