This particular diet is formulated to meet the demands of all life stages, so technically this should be fine for kittens and will be OK to feed them this. However, there can be some problems associated with feeding adult cats this food, because it may contain more calories and make them more prone to obesity. I've included a link below to an article that further explains details about choosing food for your cat. http://www.vet.cornell.edu/fhc/Health_Information/brochure_feedingcat.cfm
