Product Information
Natural Balance® pet foods contain a variety of wholesome meats and vegetables, many of which feature some natural color variation. For example, the skin color of potatoes can range anywhere from a deep red to off-white. Depending on the batch, Natural Balance’s finished kibble will reflect that natural range of colors to some degree.
All of our Natural Balance® foods and treats include a “Best if Used By” date on the back or bottom of the package.
The date on the packaging is the date by which we guarantee the product to remain fresh. We do not recommend using our products once they have expired.
Kibble should be stored in a cool, dry location. It can remain in the original packaging as long as it’s kept closed tightly in order to limit exposure to air and light. An airtight food storage container is ideal, but either way, dry food should stay fresh for two to three months after the bag is opened, when stored correctly.
Refrigerate canned products within two hours of opening. An opened can has a shelf-life of two to three days when stored airtight in the refrigerator.
At Natural Balance®, we want you to be completely satisfied with every product you buy from us, so we offer a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. To replace a product quickly and easily, simply visit your original retailer and ask for an exchange. If you’re unable to return or exchange your item, you can reach out to our Customer Care Team. We’re available to help you Monday – Friday, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. CST, at 800-829-4493, or by live chat on our website. Like to email instead? Find us at info@naturalbalanceinc.com.
Feeding Instructions & Nutrition
Natural Balance® products are formulated to provide complete and balanced nutrition for the various stages throughout your pet’s life. It’s not necessary for you to add any additional supplements or nutrients.
Yes! We recommend gradually switching your pet’s diet over a period of 7 – 10 days. Typically, this is done by replacing 20 – 25% of the current food with the replacement formula every couple of days.
Every Natural Balance® product is unique, but caloric information can always be found on the product packaging and on the product description pages of our website. For specific nutrition inquiries, you can web chat with our Customer Care Team or call us at 800-829-4493, Monday – Friday, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. CST.
