Thread: How much food??

Heading says it all really, how much do you mc eat?? I have a 10wk old boy and he is always hungry. I was just wondering what the normal amount is, thanks

Kittens need lots of food to grow up big and strong, they should be feed as much as they'll eat, 3 or more times a day.

I can't say what is norm for a 10wk MC babe as my breeders would never let them go that young but my new babe who is now 14 weeks gets through two pouches a day with kitty biscuits as well & seems pretty happy,she was fed over four meals but has pulled it back to three herself, although I haven't weighed her yet everyone who comes round including her breeder reckons she has grown so must be giving her enough. Is your boy on a kitten worming program ? They do seem to eat a huge amount at this stage though,they have a lot of growing to do in these first months I always give mine extra vitamins as well...x

Hi thanks for the replies, he is eating about 3-4 packets plus dry food a day. But always looking for more yeah he is on a worming programme.

My baby boy is 17 wks and he seems as though he cannot get enough food. I give him 1/2 can of wet in the morning and a 1/2 can at night and he has his dry
food all the time. And he still is begging for more. Should I give him supplements such as the nutra cal paste?

Candes do u feed you mcs raw feedings? Is that something i should do?

When Tia was 4 months I gave her 2 pouches a day+dry food was always in the bowls(Applaws & whiskas kitten),she feeds all day & never squeeks for food.

I've always given Rasputin pretty much as much as he'll eat and that's worked so far however I do keep a close eye on his waistline!

RE: raw food, he gets some raw meat (steak normally) about once a fortnight as it's good for his teeth but otherwise he always has royal canin down and wet food put down in the am and pm.
