Me and my family got a feral kitten(2-3 months old according to vet). Already made a post about it in the feral section of the forum, but now I have some questions regarding feeding so I decided to post here too.
For the time being we are feeding her by simply leaving the food out and letting her eat when she wants. But since she only comes out from under the bed in the evenings and during the night she only gets food that was left then. So I was thinking of switching to the food only being there at set times. For the time being I was thinking of putting the food near her hiding place in the morning, at midday and in the evening to get her used to the times. Then after some time(a week or two maybe) moving the food tray back to the kitchen where it is now. Since I have basically zero experience raising cats I was wondering if any part of this is a good idea?
As a side question I was wondering what we should feed the kitten. At the moment we are feeding her 2 times Friskies dry food(vet said we should feed her some for tooth cleaning or something like that) and 1 time some kind of meal from Kitekat.
