There is no correct answer for this, as how much a kitten eats can depend on several factors: The kitten's age, size, activity level, appetite and the quality of food being fed. A cat's food is also a huge factor in how much it eats: A cat will eat far more if fed a lower quality food to get the nutrition it needs, and will eat much less if fed a premium quality food that has a high meat content and no grains. Kittens on growth spurts also tend to eat much more also.

Kittens can eat as little as 100g or 200g of canned/pouched food and as much as 400g or 500g in a day. Kittens often need much more food than an adult cat as they are still growing and developing. It is advised to feed as much as it wants until it reaches a year old. Be sure to feed small but frequent meals, especially for younger kittens as they have small stomachs.

How many times a day should you feed your kitten?

The rule of thumb with kittens is to feed as much as they'll eat. Keep dry food out all the time and give canned food as well. Canned food is higher in calories which is better for kittens. If your kitten is thin you can mix KMR (a kitten formula)with their food or Hill prescription diet A/D food (buy it at your vet) do not leave the food out all day since bacteria will be formed on it and your kitten will suffer from diarrhea because of the bacteria, mine had that due to bacteria and diet change , and never give her canned food with preservation designed for human beings and of course a very low fat diet or no fats at all in food would be better , a kitten should be fed 3-4 times daily . good luck

How much does a kitten eat a day?

If you look in the right places, such as in certain areas of the paper, you may be able to find a kitten for free. You also may try checking the Craigslist Pets section for a free (or at the very least inexpensive) kitten. If you go to a shelter in the US you are likely to find kittens up for adoption at the price of $50 to $100. This price might seem extreme, but that money is put to good use in helping other animals.

How much do you feed a Kitten When it's old enough?

As for how much you should feed the kitten four to six times a day for young kittens, or three to four for older kittens, with small-sized meals usually two to three teaspoons of wet food (make sure you chop up the meat into little pieces). Kittens need a lot of food for them to develop and grow in a healthy manner, so give the kitten as much food as the kitten needs/eats.


How much eat a cat daily?

uh... I'm not sure if you asked for this information or a different thing but it depends on the weight of the cat, so if it's a kitten (around 7 lbs) then it should eat about 6 ounces of cat food. But if it's an adult cat (around 13 lbs) then it should eat about 10 ounces of cat food.


What do you do if your kitten asks for food when she's not supposed to have it?

If the kitten is otherwise healthy, it may be a good idea to just give your kitten more food - either by adding an extra meal to the daily feeding schedule or to slightly increase the amount of food being fed per day. Changing the food to a higher quality one with a high amount of meat is also another option, as the kitten will be able to get all the needed nutrients without eating as much as it would on a lower quality food. Kittens need a lot of animal proteins and fats in order to grow and develop in a healthy manner. Generally speaking, kittens need much more protein and other nutrients compared to an adult cat, so don't be surprised if you are feeding your kitten much more than you would an adult cat. If your kitten is asking for more food, chances are he or she actually is hungry, and not asking to eat out of boredom or greed. If your kitten is begging for human food, by all means deny it. Kittens are highly curious and seeing their human caregivers eating food will naturally perk the kitten's interest.

About a cup a day. When they get to be about one year of age it should ruduce to 1/2 to 3/4 cup.


How many scoops of food should you give your kitten?

Kittens are constantly growing and developing, so they need all the nutrients they can get. Typically, a kitten will need twice as much protein as an adult cat, so it is usually best to feed the kitten as much as it needs until it is around a year old. It really doesn't matter if you feed them just dry food or soft, as long as the food has plenty of meat in it and no cereals, grains or corn in. For young kittens, soft food will be easier for them to eat.


Can you feed your 5 month old kitten adult cat food?
