Sidney started out with Science Diet when I first adopted her. We then switched to Eukanuba (sp?) b/c of the animal testing. We are currently on Royal Canin kitten food.
That seems a bit on the small side...make sure your vet thinks she's healthy! To get her to grow (well, bluk up, at least) you can try a couple things...you can give her a little bit of the KMR weaning forumla in distilled water or folded into her wet food. Or, you can offer her a supplement with her food, like Dr. Goodpet's optimum growth formula, which can be purchased online at www.goodpet.com Make sure she gets a lot of protein...you can give her a little bit of boiled chicken to get her extra protein.Originally Posted by Joobihlee
Okay, I feel a bit worried now. Olga is 5.5 months and only weighs 4lbs. I thought this was about right. Am I wrong? I know she was the runt but she's a Persian so she should be on the heavy side shouldn't she? If she is under weight, how can i fatten her up a bit? She loves to eat, will eat anything, she's free fed Science Diet (nature's best). Maybe she's just little??
Hi there, i ran across the picture of Duke and Cosmo and was stunned to see two cats that look exactly the same as my cat. I was just wondering if you know what breed they are?Originally Posted by loraandjeff
Haha, great thread! When I got them at 3 months, they were both pretty much the same size..Duke was a bit bigger, but not much. I adopted my 2 from Alabama 3 months ago and they are now 6.5 months old. Duke is 9lbs 8 oz and Cosmo is 5lb 4oz, haha BIG difference in 3 months.
This was a month ago
But that's ok, as twins, it was extremely hard to tell them apart. This makes it much easier (except when they're sleeping and all smooshed up together LOL)

Raw chicken is even better. You can feed bones and all (never feed cooked bones) and gets lots of protein. All my cat eats is a RAW diet, no dry cat food or anything..Make sure she gets a lot of protein...you can give her a little bit of boiled chicken to get her extra protein.
Why thank you CarolPetunia! *Duke & Cosmo are blushing at the compliments* At the risk of bragging, they are now almost 9 months old and I took this picture of them a couple weeks ago. It's my favorite as I just LOVE the looks on their faces as they love each other.Originally Posted by CarolPetunia
Lora and Jeff -- your twins are so beautiful! And what a sweet pose they did for you. Lovely little ones you have...
Hi Lindaom, I sure wish I did. If yours are like my 2, their fur is incredibly soft as silk. Momma cat was found, but pappa cat never was, and my 2 look nothing like momma cat.Originally Posted by lindaom
