How Much Wet Food Should My 6 Week Old Kitten Eat Per Day?

Please, dont listen to your vet about nutrition. Nutrition is an elective in vet school and when taken it is usually given by a rep from a cat/dog food company. Unless your vet specializes in nutrition of course. ANd yours obviously has not. ANd dont believe me either, research it for yourself. What you will find is cats are carnivores and require a high protein no grain diet. Cats who are on dry food have a high risk of becoming dehydrated and high incidences of kidney problems and poor quality food can also explain the high rate of diabetes. The advice you got about WEllness and Blue Buffalo was right on. Great foods that mimic the raw food diet, which is the best way to feed to your pet. I can not afford this though so I do the closest thing possible. My cats eat Wellness Core, it is getting a bit expensive so Im going to start mixing with watered down dry. If canned is too expensive for you, water down the dry like the other poster suggested. The other thing to keep in mind is most premium foods are good for all life stage (a banana is good for us if we are 8 months or 80 years right) Many different varieties of one companies food takes up more room on the shelf which means a better chance us consumers will 1) be more likely to see it 2) think it is better because of all the diff formulas.

Wet food is so bad for kittens..it cause the poopies and it makes their poop stink really bad!!! I would go get some kitten dry food and moisten it with warm water...the bag will tell you how often to feed it. Also...make sure you get your kitten to the vet soon for a check up and shots....and dont forget to have it spayed or neutered as soon as its old enough!!! The best kitten food is by Wellness...cant get it at the grocery store or walmart..go to a Pet super market or to Petsmart..They have BLUE BUFFALO kitten food...great stuff!!!!!! Get it and try it ...your kitten will love it!!!! Also, make sure to get your kitten dewormed by a vet.....the over the counter stuff can kill them if you give too much!! All kittens have little worms...this will cause them to eat more and to act like they are always hungry...the worms actually eat the food inside of them. Good luck!!!
