Wondering what brand or brands is the most nutritional for kittens. I'm thinking about organic raw meats, but I don't think I will be doing it all the time.

Iams kitten food makes a wonderful canned wet food. It's much easier on their stomach. My Persian had horrible sensitivity to most foods and this is how we kept weight on her during the first 6 months. We actually kept her on it for 2 years. You may want to do a healthy mix of wet and dry though, so your kitten doesn't get overweight. Talk about it with your vet.
One more thing, while I don't agree with the organic raw meats, I realize you are going to do it anyways. I plead with you not to do it at such a young age. Their immune systems are not up to par yet, and e coli and salmonella could kill the kitten quite quickly. If you must, please consult with your vet first.

Call a vets office and they can tell you which one is better. I have given mine AD, but kittens need the crunchy food for their teeth. Wet food is not good for them and neither is raw meat.

Wet food (of ANY brand) is too high in fat and sugar, and causes tooth decay. Stick with a dry food from Iams, Purina, or Science Diet- all are excellent brands.

My daughter has a tendency for finding kittens dumped at a very very young age and when she brings one home I use Purina kitten chow. That seems to do the job nicely for us. Hope it helps

It is much better to give a kitten dry food and dry food only. It is much better for their teeth. If you want just moisten it with some wayer so it is easier to chew.
I use Nutro
