    16 week old kitten not gaining weight on food

    From my observations, I don't think she's super selective with food she won't touch turkey or rabbit but apart from that she will eat it. But it's more she'll act hungry and get excited and run for the food bowl but will only nibble a bit and then walk off and not come back to it. She'll be fine...

    16 week old kitten not gaining weight on food

    I'm just a little wary on giving them lactose free human milk I guess. I don't want to even slight the chance of an upset stomach and she won't even touch kitten milk :( Yes she will go for some tuna based complementary food and sardines. But I'm conscious about giving too much fish and she's...

    16 week old kitten not gaining weight on food

    She was from an accidental litter near us we weren't planning on getting her originally but we decided to take her on as a playmate for our original kitten. No regrets she's beautiful and makes me laugh with her antics. She was free fed on some dry food which I got a sample if but after tasting...

    16 week old kitten not gaining weight on food

    Just gave them a ring and spoke briefly to one of the assistants. They aren't too worried currently but they said she was underweight and should be the same weight as my other kitten. I was told to feed her more regularly and the vets will see her in 2 weeks time if there's still no change. But...

    16 week old kitten not gaining weight on food

    She is a BSH and they shouldn't be "petit" I suppose. She isn't particularly food driven but I feed my other kitten separately as he can be quite greedy. She eats when she's hungry and she's quite finicky. Certain canned food flavours she won't even touch but I don't give it to her once I...

    16 week old kitten not gaining weight on food

    I forgot to add she has been health cleared by the vets a couple weeks ago and she is wormed regularly. My other kitten is doing very well on the food they're both on and he's rapidly approaching the 2kg mark.

    16 week old kitten not gaining weight on food

    Hello, One of my kittens is fast approaching 4 months. Except she's quite underweight at 1.1 kg and hasn't gained much/any weight since I brought her home. She's very healthy and doesn't look skinny and loves to play and sleep. I'm feeding her both wet food and dry. I also give her some...

    14 week Kitten eating 3 times the recommended amount

    Thank you. I mix it because he'll eat it too fast and it acts as a "buffer" in a way. He will literally inhale any wet food.

    14 week Kitten eating 3 times the recommended amount

    Ive got a 14 week burmese kitten who came home just over a week ago and he is nuts for food. I dont want to restrict any young, growing animal's food but he'll eat about 3 maybe 4 times his amount of recommended food. I cant even free feed to let him graze as its gone the moment i put it down...

    Need advice to encourage 2 kittens from different litters to get along

    Is there anything we can do in the meanwhile to help them along? When they're near eachother I do grab some treats and feed them at the same time and they love it but ignore eachother. They only hiss if they bump into eachother. I don't want to force it but at the same time i want to associate...

    Need advice to encourage 2 kittens from different litters to get along

    Hello, I've currently got a 13 week old BSH and 14 week old Burmese kitten. Individually they are very sweet. The Burmese is very vocal and loves being petted and stroked. He's playful and purrs a lot. The BSH is the most sweetest kitten. She's just so happy and settled in on the day we brought...
