I recently took in a pregnant stray, and everything I have read says to feed her as much as she wants. The problem is, since she is a stray she will eat until she makes herself sick. When I took her to the vet they said she was very fit, but not underweight.(She weighed about 7.5 lbs and only has one fetus) They did an xray and said that her belly was extremely full (i used food to catch her and let her have as much as she wanted) and not to feed her anymore that night. Now I have been feeding her wet food 3 times a day, and I give her about twice the amount that I feed my 10 month old cat. If I had to guess I would say about 3 ounces per meal. I also mix about 1/2 teaspoon of KMR in with each meal. I have only had her for a week but I feel she has filled out a little. Her appetite never slows down though, she is ravenous!! lol. So do you think I should feed her more? I know the capacity of my other cats stomach, and what I am feeding her would most likely make him vomit if he ate that amount.
P.S. I am against dry food, and I did offer her some but she isnt really interested in it(she must know whats good for her). I would rather not leave it out for her.
