How much Royal Canin wet food for my recovering, underweight kitten?

I would recommend feeding her a high calorie, soft mousse such as royal canin recovery which is highly palatable and energy dense and can be very useful to promote weight gain during recovery. Ensure she is up to date with deworming medications also

Hello, again. The best wet foods are those made by Science Diet, Royal Canin, & Purina. I would start off offering her 1-2 tablespoons 4 times a day. Adjust up or down depending on how much she leaves, or how quickly she finishes each meal. At about 1 year of age, you can transition Lola to an adult food.

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Billu. Royal Canin will be a higher quality kitten food, but Whiskas should be fine for her. It is well balanced and appropriate for her growth and development. Make sure to gradually transition her over to the new food over 7 days or so to prevent any GI upset. I hope this information helps!

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! So cute! Koa maybe trying to make up for lost time! I would bring her in to the Vet for an exam and deworming. Intestinal parasites may be competing with her nutritional needs. At 5 weeks I do not think you need to use the formula any more. I would feed her 3-4 times per day and leave some dry food down. Be sure you are feeding kitten food. I wish you and Koa the very best!

I can understand your dilemma here. You can try offering her 1/4 cup 3 times a day and see if his curbs her hunger. The food recommendations on the bag are more like guidelines. I would also recommend weaning her off the milk over the next week, because she is old enough where she doesn’t need it after 6 weeks of age. I hope this helps and best wishes caring for your pet Minerva. You certainly picked an excellent quality food to give her a great start! Take care.

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! This is actually more based on the weight than the age per se. If Kovu is really 7 pounds like your profile says, he should be eating about 250 to 300 calories per day to gain weight. The caloric content can be easily found in the can or bag of food or online. Good luck and have a great day!

At 4-5 weeks, kittens should be transitioning to solid foods, so it would be best to mix in the KMR with the wet food into a sort of slurry to help with the transition and make it easier to digest. You can also weigh Cleo with a food scale or other small scale to get her weight in ounces which can help you determine how big she is. Most kittens at this age will still needed to be fed several times a day. This article also has a great guide and charts about feeding and life stages from birth to about 8 weeks of age which may be helpful! https://www.petcoach.co/article/how-to-raise-orphan-kittens/
