Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m a little concerned about my future queensâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji] weight. Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m fairly new to breeding so Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m not sure what to expect.
The elder of my two girls currently weighs 5 lbs, 11 oz. She has gained 12 oz in the last 2 months. She was born December 25, 2009 (almost 10 months old).
The younger of the two currently weighs 5 lbs, 6 oz. She has gained 17 oz in the last 2 months. She was born February 10, 2010 (8 months old).
Both are Siamese. They are eating Royal Canin Pro Queen, which has a very high protein (34%) and fat (23%) content. They are very active, playful cats. They just seem very small.
The queen I have that is of breeding age currently weighs 6 lbs, 8 oz, so Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m hoping that the younger two will reach her size. She seems so much larger than my future queens.
I was wondering if I can use KMR to increase their weight? If yes, how much should I give them daily? Will it change their stool consistency? (I donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t want to upset their digestive systems.) Is there anything else I should know about KMR?
If not KMR, is there anything else I can do?
Thanks so much for your help!
