| Just like people, pets grow through different lifestages and during these times of their life they have different nutritional needs. To ensure pets have the optimal nutrients for their current stage of life, PURINA ONE has a selection of products specially tailored to their needs. Here are some tips to help you choose the right formula for the right phase of your pet's life. |

| PURINA ONE Growth & Development Formulas for puppies and kittens have increased protein, fats, vitamin & minerals to help their bodies grow into healthy dogs and cats. Kittens become cats at about 1 year old, so to give your cat the best start in life feed PURINA ONE Growth and Development Formula for Kittens until she celebrates that first birthday. As dogs differ in size, they don't all become adults at the same age. Some, like the big kids of the dog world, are a little slower to grow up. So have a look at our table below to identify when to switch your puppy to and Adult formula. |

| To provide adult pets with complete and balanced nutrition with variety, PURINA ONE has a range of products available for adult cats and dogs. Healthy cats and dogs between 1 and 6 years old, who are not pregnant or lactating, have lower nutrient needs, so you might notice that they will eat less than when they were a kitten or puppy. It's crucial to maintain a good quality diet for these adult years as it really is the foundation for good health in their senior years. |
 |
| Just like other lifestages, the nutrient requirements for older pets differs again. Even though your middle-aged pet, of 5-7 years of age, may look in top condition on the outside, changes are happening on the inside that mean their diets need to change. As pets reach their senior years, their digestive system isn't as efficient at processing the nutrients so there is often a need to increase particular components of the diet. PURINA ONE have built these requirements into the senior formulas, with increased protein to help maintain muscle condition & internal organ health, vitamins to help the immune system and fibre to assist the digestive tract. Senior formulas also have a reduced amount of fat to account for an older pet's less active lifestyle. |
