I recently adopted a kitten from a shelter. She is about eleven weeks old and really sweet. She has been checked over by the shelter's veterinarian and has no internal parasites and has a vet statement saying that there is really nothing wrong with her when they brought her in.
We've had her for about a week, and I was recently checking her over and she seems really thin.Now, Ive worked with animals a long while, at groomers, at a veterinarian's office, so I'm not exactly clueless to animal care and whatnot... But anyways... Her hips, ribs, spine and cheekbones are quite prominent. She is active, but seems to get tired easily. She wasn't at the shelter long, so I think where ever she was before, she didn't get proper care.
Is there anything I should supplement her diet with? I'm currently giving her the same food the shelter was giving her - Natures Choice, or something like that- because I didn't want to cause her an upset stomach.
Thanks in advance.
