I need a little help!

So here's an update. Chloe has been spayed and is doing well. Little Rocky isn't so little anymore. He's growing like a weed and is a fluffy ball of cuteness. He has slight food aggression but we're working on fixing it. He's going to be neutered at 6 months and he'll be 2 months on the 6th. Here's what he looks like today ♡♡♡

How cute! Glad mom is doing well. Kitten can be neutered at 3-4 months and his aggression will calm down.

How much is he eating per day? He may just be hungry.

He eats multiple times a day, whenever he feels like eating. Plus he's still nursing. He meows at me when he wants food.

Yep, he's hungry! Kittens should have dry food left down all the time and meals of wet throughout the day.

He can't eat hard food. He chokes. He's going through 2 cans of kitten food a day plus nursing whenever Chloe lays down, which is very often. I've tried giving him hard food but he scared the crap out of me so I'm going to wait until he's bigger and not being so aggressive.

Have you tried hard food for kittens? It's the tiny pieces. Or softened in a bit of kmr for now?

He's being food aggressive because he is hungry.

 

[Sarthur2]

I agree that he is probably hungry. He needs more food. Kittens do a lot of growing and can be expensive to feed.

Give him another can or two per day.

As Talking Peanut said, moisten dry food with kitten formula or water. He'll have no trouble with it softened.

See if feeding him more food solves the problem.

Rocky will be 3 months this Thursday. He's a sweet, fluffy little ball of love. His food aggression has stopped since he's started eating with my other cats. Once my vet feels he's ready we're going to have him neutered. Thank you all for your help. He's a perfect little boy. ♡♡♡

This is my sweet Rocky about a week ago. His color keeps changing and he just gets fluffier and fluffier. He's an absolute doll.

He's adorable!
