Hello I just rescued 6 kittens who I'm guessing are 5 weeks old I've been feeding them canned kitten food but someone had told me to put a bowl of dry food out for them as well all I could find in our small town was Purina one normal cat food is this ok to five them?

How lovely of you to rescue these kittens! Yes, Purina is a fine brand to feed them, but it does need to be a kitten formulated food to meet their nutritional needs. If you can't find that, I would feed them the wet food until you can get out to find some dry kitten food. I hope this helps :-)
