If you are advised that your new pet is on a special diet, please follow the medical advice and feeding instructions and/or consult with your veterinarian.

While your adopted pet is acclimating to his/her new environment, we recommend continuing their current diet (wet/dry mixture for dogs canned food twice daily with dry fed separately for cats). If you wish to change over to a different brand of food, it is best to mix in the new food with the current food slowly over a few weeks. We recommend the following transition:

This will help prevent stomach upset for your new pet. Also, feeding your pets on a regular schedule will help with potty training, and prevent overeating.

What if my pet doesn’t eat at first?
