We got our kitten last Sunday from the shelter and he needs to put on quite a bit of weight.
We're feeding him a mixture of Iams Kitten (dry) and a Whiskas pouch feed. We tried leaving food out for him, but he wouldn't eat it if it was just left (he gets very distracted exploring his world, playing with my feet, learning to get along with the horses), so we have been putting fresh food for him 4-5 times a day, and gently moving him back to the food until he eats a substantial amount at each time.
Does this combination sound good nutritionally and will 4-5 times daily be sufficient for him to both grow and put on the weight he's missing? He's very ribby
