But my cats don't I have 4 cats and I keep a tiny bowl with dry food for free feeding and by 12 hrs only my 4 cats will finish it. They only eat whenever they are hungry in small amounts and before bed I give them wet food . And that's it for their entire day. All are healthy and fine. But yes things may vary bcz all cats are different

I have 2 cats. Cat A will scarf his food, and Cat B nibbles, leaving some. Then Cat A will go and eat the remainder of Cat B's. So, I feed them 3x a day, 1/4 cup of dry food. When Cat B is done, I'll put his food up, and he'll usually let me know when he's hungry again. (THOUGH I try not to give him it within an hour of the next meal.) They have a 2L water fountain... and between them, can empty it in a day or 18 hours.

Sounds like you are feeding them in good proportion and increments. Based on what I have researched, I would eliminate one of the dry meals and add a wet meal. As a precaution as cat's are sensitive to drastic food changes, I would introduce any new food--dry or wet--slowly over the course of 5-7 days.

Very informative, thank you.

Thank you for this video. I always want to be the best pet parent for my cats.

few days ago, we were on a trip to our home town, when we came back, we found two baby kittens n our storeroom, i wanna take good care of them, theyre so weak, they shiver all the time, im young myself so i cant reallyy purchase much stuff beside my mom hates animals , but i will take care of them no matter what , cuz i love the, thanks for ur help

Thanks for the video! Spacing out and rationing the food may be more troublesome but it may also prevent overeating as well. Sometimes overeating can cause the cat to puke so it really depends on the cat

I was feeding my cats today and one went the wrong way so the other one stopped and meowed at him it was so cute

Where can I get a proper recipe for the home cooked meal with carrots, shown in the video? There are a bunch of sites, but I need a recipe from a reputable source, such as a vet.

I feed very intuitively...twice a day wet food, free feeding dry. If one or both became obese, I would adapt them to a food with more fiber and a less calorie-dense wet food.

They are two....and have a fountain and two other water 💧 sources. Fountains are also meditative or entertaining for them, just like a fountain ⛲ or fireplace is enjoyable for us. Also, cozy washable folded Terry cloth towels or velvet on the radiators!

Believe it or not cats can get gingivitis and tooth decay. So please start brushing your kitten’s teeth early on. You can get toothpaste and brushes especially made for cats. May Allah bless your kitten with good health and a long life.

What type of wet food can i feed a 2 mo kitten? I don't want it to get tired of chicken/Turkey. Thank you in advance 🙂

Thank you for Sharing,,,

My kitten came from outside not sure what his diet was but he always begs for human food there are times he will abandon his kibble to beg for what we have. He also ask for food everytime we are in the kitchen or he sees us eating. If he finds human food he will eat it. He already gained 3.5lbs being with me in a month

@@mrkakarot5187 not much has changed lol he’s still fairly food motivated like last night he got on the table and knocked his kibble container over hoping it would spill out. I will say with a lot of redirection he is less impulsive when it’s food time I distract him with opening the window in a room. Also have taught him to sit and wait for me to set this dish down.

@@Alcoholpad @Mr Kakarot I am not an expert. I have however read and watched many articles and KZread videos.

If your portions equal what a cat should eat in one day and yours has been trained to eat twice it is ok. Please weigh him/them periodically and have a conversation wth a vet on what is best for your scenario.

Lol @ recommending kibble

Wrong. Cats don't eat that often in the wild, so why would you feed them so much and often? Wet food twice a day, and some dry food during the day is sufficient.

This is the first time I got a cat and he poop 6 times a day, I wonder if I feed him alot.hahha
