I would not feed DoReMi earthworms. They are not an appropriate food for cats, she should be feed a kitten formulated food only. As a kitten, she will need more calories, protein, and calcium than adults cats, and a kitten formulated food will provide all the nutrients she needs to be healthy and grow properly.
