Thread: Wet Food, how much for a kitten?

hi there - my breeder warned me that the poo thing could happen - she said if that's so to change her food. She actually told me NOT to give her any dry food at first as kittens sometimes have a reaction of this kind, it is too rich, even though it stipulates "kitten" on the pouch. She also advised, Jelly only, no Gravy as once again Gravy is too rich and interferes with their digestion, could give them the runs and stinky poo!
so - I would change him on to Jelly kitten food only, Neevie could eat up to 6 pouches per day when she was little, till 1 year old - then slowly on to adult jelly food - and then slowly on to gravy food if you like - Neevie has been allowed gravy only since 1 and a half. And only THEN I allowed her dry food, but made sure she was drinking OK first. Cats don't naturally drink out of thirst, they actually don't know when they're thirsty - so dry food + no water = bad for kidneys. If you give him dry food, make sure he drinks.
hope this helps? :-)
Enjoy your bundle of fluff!
