How do you switch your cat's food? Plan a gentle changeover

Changing your cat's food too fast can upset their stomach, and many cats simply refuse the new bowl. Vet and welfare groups agree: go slowly, usually over one to two weeks, and sometimes longer.

Pick how your cat copes with change and get a day-by-day plan that shows how much new food to offer. You'll also learn what to do if your cat says no, and when to ask a vet.
