I am sure I could feed my kitten wet food because wet food can help with hairballs and can be a good source of water especially because most cats don't drink a lot of water. My kitten is a Maine coon and has a ton of fur so wet food can help him digest hairballs.

How often do you feed 6 week old kittens and what do you feed them?

6 week old kittens should still be with their mother, if they do not have a mother then you should mix a tiny bit of soft kitten food with kitten milk (never use cow's milk) and slowly decrease the amounts of milk as he gets older. Make sure they get enough food by feeling their tummy-if it is hard, they have had enough, if it is soft, then they need some more. Don't feed them too much at once or it will make them sick. You should feed them about five or six times a day or whenever they are hungry. :)


Your kittens are 27days old cat you feed them kitten food?

27 days is a little young to start feeding them solid food. Your kitten starts eating kitten food whenever it feels that it is ready. You could keep a bowl of food out, and water out if you like. At this stage, kittens may begin to explore regular cat food and might want to try it, but many start around five or six weeks. I would stick with soft kitten food at first.

How much should i feed my 5 month old devon rex kitten?

The amount of food that you should feed your 5-month-old Devon Rex kitten will depend on a number of factors, including its size, weight, activity level, and overall health. As a general guideline, you can feed your kitten two to three small meals per day. It's best to consult with a veterinarian to determine the appropriate portion size and nutritional needs for your kitten. The vet can also help you determine whether your kitten needs a kitten-specific diet or whether a regular adult cat food formula will suffice. In general, a 5-month-old kitten should be fed a balanced and nutritious diet that provides the protein, fat, vitamins, and minerals that it needs for growth and development. Look for a high-quality cat food that is formulated for kittens and meets the standards set by organizations like the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO). Avoid feeding your kitten table scraps, as these can upset its digestive system and lead to nutritional imbalances. Also, be sure to provide plenty of fresh water for your kitten to drink and to keep its bowl filled throughout the day.

Can't afford kitten cat food at this time can i feed my 7 month old kitten with adult cat food?

Yes, of course. The nutritional needs of an adult cat and a kitten are the same; its just the amounts that should be fed to an adult or kitten that are different. For the most part, kitten and adult food from the same brand are the same, or at the very least, very similar in terms of ingredients and nutrients. Feeding a kitten adult food is absolutely fine. The biggest difference between the two is usually texture. Kitten food is usually softer in texture or has smaller pieces. Dry adult food pieces may be too big for a small kitten, but wet food can easily be mashed up in order to be eaten more easily. Premium cat food brands are suitable for both adults and kittens and do not offer a "kitten" range.

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.
