Hello

Benson and Jinxy are now 11 weeks and 10 weeks. But man i can not get over how much they eat , i do not think there kitty food is satisfying them enough! ( I could be wrong , i am no expert)

They eat - 4 pouches of kitten a day (some times more) they eat a lot of full meat/protien dried food , and jinxy still takes 4-10 oz of kitten milk a day , plus they drink water ...

Is this normal ,or do they need a different type of kitten food , or be moved on to wet food..

Tia

If the kittens are not neutered/spayed yet, you are ok. But remember that after they are, they will need a little less foods. I usually switch my kittens to adult foods about 5 months old - 6 max....as long as they are healthy and active.

They make kitten wet food, too.

My kitten is around 4 months and she free feeds dry all day and I give her wet food 3 x's a day. I give her mostly kitten food but there isn't much variety so I give her high quality adult wet food too.
