The bag on the dry food says "1/3 to 3/4 cup" a day.

So I've been giving them each 1/3 cup in the am, and half a small can of wet at night. They are still hungry after that so today I'm upping the dry to 1/2 cup each.

How do I know how much is enough?

too much?

THANKS.

I give Cooper (20weeks)

One can of wet food in the morning before work 6am
One can of wet food in the evening around 7pm

I leave dry food out all day long... this way if she gets hungry during the day she has food to nibble on!

(she eats about 1/2 a cut a day of the dry stuff, but I make sure it's always full)

For a kitten, I would give 1/2 can wet in the morning and the other 1/2 at night.

Dry food should be left out all the time. Kittens have small tummies and generally only eat a little bit at a time.
