Queen Eva is 11 1/2 weeks old. No recent weight on her, last one was when I rescued her at 8 weeks she was 2.8 pounds.
She's growing longer in body almost daily. Finally her legs have started to catch up with that so now she is all legs and long body.
Still too skinny. She is eating three or more 3 oz cans a day, a combination of wellness grain free cat food (the bulk) and some Petite Cuisine chicken and rice to round things out.
I'd like to offer her a little kibble for snacks in between but she doesn't like the wellness kibble and that's what I have. Of course she wants Mazy's c/d kibble but I won't let her have that.
She had a droncit three weeks ago for tapeworms, then kitten revolution for any fleas remaining after the capstar, and for roundworms.
Four days after the kitten revolution her fecal still tested positive for roundworms so all cats were dosed with drontal this past Monday.
She's so skinny, but eating so much!
She's active, but has not yet entered that wild and crazy never stop kitten stage, she's still babyish as far as activity goes.
It's been 11 years since I've had a baby in the house, and Tolly was so finicky, looking back it almost seems like he never ate anything his first three years of life, so I can't go by experience.
Will she start to fill out now that her de-worming is hopefully complete? Is this a normal amount for a kitten her age to be eating?
Her follow up check up and second distemper booster is one week from today.
