Is she up to date with worming? If not, I would discuss parasite protection with your vet.

She doesn't look scarily bloated to me. Sometimes my kitten gets a big belly like that after a meal, but it goes down after an hour or two. Best of luck!

She had her first dosage when i got her - and I've booked her in for a second dosage and vaccines in two weeks time. If it doesnt go down within the hour, should i worry?

Is this the first time this has happened? As in you noticed it today but it hasn't been bloated before?

I just went and felt my own kitten's belly (lol) who I fed two hours ago, and his belly is normal sized and soft.

I would give your vet a call and see if they can fit you in sometime today. They will be able to have a feel and say if there is something more sinister going on. Hopefully just baby belly! Best of luck, hope all goes well.
