I've never raised a kitten on a raw diet before now, and it's been about 24 years since I last adopted a kitten younger than 7 months.
My question is, "When is the peak period when kittens eat the highest percentage of their body weight?" Is it 1-3 months, 3-6 months, 6-9 months, etc.
I'm not sure how old my kitten is, but the day I brought her home on February 3rd, she had her kitten canine teeth and tiny buds of adult canine teeth at the same time, so I guess-timated her at 4 months. (Her kitten canines fell out sometime during the first week I had her.) If my guess-timate is close, that makes her 6 months around April 1st.
I'm just curious whether I should prepare for her appetite to get even larger, or if I should expect it to level off now that she is around a half year old.
