Hi , we just got a kitten also she is now 8 weeks old , I give her the I’ams single serving wet food morning and night , she also has dry food on demand! “dry food always down” I’ms kitten also. she eats all her wet food but never complains It seems to work for us , might wanna give it a try, as for the sleeping she/he is a kitten and sometimes they get there days and nights mixed up ,so what we do is put her in the kitchen at nights and close the pocket doors, she has her bed toys food and litter box in there, we sleep well and she can do what she needs to.
Do you have a room you could possibly give this a try

So I currently have a 4 month old Russian Blue male who weighs 7.1lbs. I realized I wasn’t feeding him enough and am a bit confused. The recommendation and rsearch I’ve done says about 7.7oz a day. That seems like a lot when measured out and my husband says it looks like too much. Would a cup and a qtr of dry food and three tbs of wet food be too much or sufficient?

Hello, I am a little confused about the portion sizes for 3-6 month old cat. I am to give cat 2/3 of 3 ounce can for every pound of weight. I understand this.. but then it says feed 1/3 cup 3 times a day. Is 1/3 for dry food and the 2/3 – 3 ounce can for wet food? Thank you for your time.

Both of our cats are rescues. The older one was a stray for many months & has a huge appetite. Plus, since the new kitten came, the older cat has been jumping on counters to eat bread, wraps or soft items when we’re sleeping.
My question is for the newer kitten, who we’ve had for four months. Jake is 9 months old. I’m now trying to feed him separately from Stella, the elder cat, but I”m not sure how much food I should give Jake and how often to feed him. I have both high-fat wet and dry food for Jake.
Your opinion is welcome,
Bunnee

When I got my kitten a week ago he came with feeding instructions. He was cuddly, charming, and acted pretty much like the like a typical kitten at first, but now never sleeps and acts like he’s stressed out and won’t sleep, or allow anyone else to sleep. The feeding instructions that I was given with him was to feed him about one third of a cup of dry food per day and one third of a cup of wet food per day, divided among two feedings. He seems like he’s starving and no longer wants anything to do with me unless it involves biting me or feeding him. I’ve always been very precise about following instructions because I expect the same from those who I give instructions. Why is this site recommending four feedings per day of more than the amount I have been giving him twice per day? I’m so confused? I would love any advice as I don’t think he’s ever going to let me sleep again.

I’m confused…12 week kitten…..if I feed it four times a day and a 1/4 cup of food per sitting…..that would be 1 cup of food every 24 hours. Is this correct?

Heey, this was really helpful, just one thing I didn’t find. I’ve been given my kitten cow’s milk, is that okay, or should I just give it water from now on.. only got her yesterday – she’s 8weeks
