How many times a day should 5 month old kittens be fed?


Answers:
I usually feed my cats canned food once a day, and then leave dry food out for them to eat as often as they like.
Kittens should be free fed. Since they burn so many calories playing they eat quite often. If this isn't an option for you consult your vet. They can let you know how many times and what amounts to give your kitten.
Well if it's a kitten you should probably feed it twice a day morning and night and plenty of water but once it's a cat feed it 3 times a day morning noon and night and plenty of water as well.
Some canned food in the AM and some more PM with a dry out during the day.

They should be fixed this month and it may slow them down a little. They are still growing at a great rate and need a lot of calories. You might start cutting down a little on quantity when they are nine to ten months old.
Keep dry food out for the kittens so they can eat when they want. Then you won't have to worry about how many times a time to feed them. Just keep the food coming!
