: We always recommend transitioning slowly to Freshpet so that the change is gentle on your pet’s tummy.
Start by feeding both freshpet and your pet’s current food, and increase the amount of freshpet every few days, while decreasing your pet’s current food.
 Then enjoy the change in your pet’s appetite at feeding time, and the lasting benefits you’ll notice from our nutritionally balanced meals.
