My Kitten Is Around 10-12 Weeks Old Now (last Measured Weight A Few Days Ago…
My kitten is around 10-12 weeks old now (last measured weight a few days ago is 2.6 lbs).
She usually eats a mix of dry and wet kitten food.
Two days ago, we introduced only dry food for her to nibble around and also giving her the wet and dry mix. But she’s eating very less of the wet and dry food (but I know she’s occasionally nibbling on the dry because we leave it out). I’m a new pet owner and concerned that maybe she’s not fulfilling the daily quota of calories. Also, the weather has suddenly been very rainy in the previous 2 days so she has been sleeping a lot but very active after she’s woken up. I’ve called the vet but he says as long as she’s active and eating a spoonful of dry at a time, she’s fine. Need help.

Sarah I would call my vet right away and schedule an appointment. It’s one thing to have a slight lbs of appetite once in a while,mspecially if the food is new, but to not fern keep a treat down seems concerning. The vet will be able to do more tests in the way of figuring out exactly what the issue is and how best to treat it.

She’s Sick From The Cold Weather We’ve Been Having And She Gets Cold Easily So…
She’s sick from the cold weather we’ve been having and she gets cold easily so I assumed she’s just got a simple cold. She was shivering when I came home so I warmed her up. She’s been laying around since I’ve brought her to my room for a few hours now she doesn’t want to walk. She was walking fine when I first came home and she isn’t very old at all. She was fine just yesterday too. She’s alert she’s wagging she’s eating and drinking but she won’t get up. Is there a possibility her legs fell asleep? Or is there something serious wrong with her? Please help.

She Is Quidding When She Eats (even Mushy Food) And Even When She’s Not Eating…
She is quidding when she eats (even mushy food) and even when she’s not eating, so looks like she has something wrong with her mouth. We thought it was un chewed food that made her sick, but even feeding other food like pate cat food that’s mush (similar to mince fish-no chunks) still makes her sick. she’s painfully thin and really not her self. its like she’s got a stomach problem and a mouth/teeth/throat problem.

Dawn Ferara, DVM I would definitely seek a second opinion or a veterinary internist.

Hi Krista,
Thanks for replying. She’s going to have her 3rd vaccine on Wednesday. She doesn’t look starved. I wish I could attach a picture of her here. She’s wrestling and running around as usual. But I can’t see her eating so often 🙁
Also the dry food that we are using says that we should feed a 10-12 weeks old kitten around 90 gms of dry per day. She’s not even going to half of it for the past two days after she’s eating only dry. The vet said dry food can be high in calories and heavy, so she could be just full.
Hi Krista,
This is our April- https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1Ol_9Dq0IAZLWMzUU5uMFQwQm8/view?usp=sharing
Thanks a lot Krista. Cats are weird! Her appetite is coming back slowly, I think! 🙂 Let’s hope it stays that way!
Also, I wanted to ask why my kitten jumps on my lap and then she’ll bite my clothes off. I mean, she’ll bite my tummy bulge a little too along with that. When I try to ger her off, she’ll bring out her claws and try to bite, all the while on my lap. At other times, she sleeps on my lap peacefully. This is really strange.
