How Much Should I Feed My Cat?

How Much Do I Feed My Kitten?

The amount you should feed your kitten will vary depending on the age and weight of your kitten when you first get it. Each cat may vary in what it should be eating, but it can usually be calculated through a feeding chart!

Ask your breeder how much they are currently feeding your kitty and how often they are feeding them. They can help inform you of your kitten’s desired feeding amount too!

You will also come to know your kitten and their behavior very well. This will help you gauge how much your kitten should eat. It is important to take into account their activity level and exercise routine when feeding your kitty. A very active kitten may need a little more food than a less active kitten of the same age and weight. But don’t forget most kitties will eat just about anything given to them and don’t always know when to stop. Be careful not to feed them just because they are willing to eat it!

How do you know when your pet is overweight or obese?

Your kitten’s body shape and figure will help you know if they are in a healthy weight range or not.
