Hey,  I compared various kitten and cat chows today.  The purina kitten
chow has 41% protein and 25% fat (IIRC) which was the highest in these
categories.  Most of the others (Science diet, iams, purina one) hit around
35-6% protein in the kitten chows and around 32% for the adult versions.
The numbers for fat were 20-22% fat and 15-19% in the adult.

Just FYI.
