Your kitten needs to be on a balanced kitten food, but it doesn't need to be canned food. Some cats don't like canned food. Treats however, if you are feeding these exclusively, are not a balanced diet. Choose something high-quality like Hills or Royal Canin kitten diet. Good luck!

Biscuits/treats alone are not a nutritionally balanced diet for a growing kitten. If she is not willing to eat wet kitten food, try feeding dry kitten food. Make sure all diets are formulated for kittens and growth. If she still won't eat kibble, consider home cooked diets. Balanceit.com has a number of recipes for animals of all life stages.
