first, why are your kittens on medical growth food?

second, I personally think Wellness and Merrick are good brands for cat food. Wellness makes a variety of good dry foods (even grain free), and canned. My cats have been on Merrick canned for a while now (just for variety) and they LOVE it. They split a SMALL tin can once a day. Wet food is very important as it helps provide the cats with more water. Cats generally don't drink enough anyways, and a bit of wet food daily does help keep them hydrated.

with kittens, I've always fed both dry and wet daily. kittens can burn ALOT of calories really fast! they are playin' machines!

btw, I never take nutrional advice from the vet - most try to push the foods they sell (science diet, purina, etc...) which, if you read the ingredient list, you'll see are not very good foods at all. there is ALOT of great info here on this forum, I'm sure you'll learn alot about different foods.
