My kitten isn't eating 1/2 cup of Purina dry food daily. Is she okay?

Question

Is my kitten eating enough? The food bag says she should be eating 1/2 cup of food 3 times a day but she eats that much only about once a day. I am feeding her Purina kitten chow dry food. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 4 months and 5 days old | 4 lbs

The 1/2 cup is the DAILY amount she should be fed, and then divide that into 3-4 feedings. Since she is only really eating once a day, you would be fine just putting 1/4 cup of kitten chow in her bowl twice a day so that there is always something fresh in the bowl.
