How many wet food flavors for my kitten to prevent pickiness?

Question

Hi. I'm afraid for my kitten to become a finicky eater, so I'm planning to buy some differents flavors of wet cat food in the same brand. But how many flavors of wet food is enough to eat that one brand for their whole life? I don't want to change the brand of wet food that I'm planning to buy. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | unneutered | 2 months and 29 days old | 9 lbs

Hello, and thank you for your question. There is no limit or minimum flavours needed for wet food - it all depends on the cat's preferences. Some cats prefer only one brand and flavour for many years, while others prefer variety and like to switch it up every so often. I do agree that getting your kitten used to different flavours and textures now is the key to preventing a picky eater. I can't tell you how many flavours you should start with, but know that you will eventually need to switch his kitten food over to an adult diet anyway, usually by about 1 year of age, so the type of food you feed will eventually change anyway. I hope this helps, and that Oliver is happy and healthy!
