How many cans of wet food does your 5 month old kitten eat?
We feed him as much as he wants; he's currently eating one 5.5 ounce can of adult cat food and one 2.8 ounce can of kitten food, plus about 1/4 cup of dry food. He's putting on weight (he's about 11 pounds) and seems to be growing well, but the boxes of cat food say he should be eating something like 6 cans of food a day?!
He's an active kitten with no health concerns whatsoever so far... But there is no way he'd eat 6 cans of wet food a day. Just this evening I scraped about a tablespoon of uneaten wet food into the trash after sprinkling some dry food on it to entice him to finish it up. He refused both and only wanted plain dry kibble. 🤷🏼♀️ He gets about a quarter cup of kibble a day in the evenings, as is his preference.
