Okay so me and my friend adopted 2 kittens from different litters at our local spca, they were both 6 weeks weeks old and of similar age. Now just to avoid future confusion my kitten is Nidalee and his kitten is Gypsy, my experience with cats is extremely limited i used to think i wasn't a cat person and recently discovered that i love cats so my experience is limited to what I've read on the internet and my personal experience with my kitten who is only 16 weeks old.Now he told me that Gypsy wasn't growing and i assumed he just meant not as quickly as he thought she would, but i went to his house when she was 13 weeks old and I couldnt believe my eyes she legit seemed like she was still a kitten,So we weighed her and she weighed 590G (1.3 pounds) keeping in mind that she is overweight, her fur also didn't seem as soft and smooth as Nidalee's but like she was still a kitten growing her coat, she wasn't cleaning herself well either, when i got there she had some gunk on her face and when i left 23 hours later she still hadnt cleaned her face, In comparison(and this truely is the only thing i can compare with) Nidalee was 1.4kg (3 pounds) and was slightly underweight, her coat is soft and thick and she never has a dirty spot on her body. Gypsy also eats alot, like alot she eats like atleast 3/4 of her body size in food every day, and my friend says she's also started not using her litterbox anymore. I'll post some pics in a bit, they want to take her to the vet this week but are scared that they might discover that she has some awful sickness. Any help is appreciated!
Edit: i forgot to include that she doesn't really run around and isn't very interested in playing a game.
