My9week old rag doll kitten doesn’t eat much! She has all day access to advance kitten kibbles and twice a day Royal canin kitten food.,Have tried other types but she still doesn’t eat much. She is extremely playful and happy but still scared she’s starving and she isn’t being fed enough. Pet's info: Cat | Ragdoll | Female | unspayed | 2 months and 7 days old | 0.9 lbs

Luna looks fine from the photos. I suggest you get a small scale and weigh her twice a week. As long as she is gaining weight I would not be worried about how much she is eating. It is not likely that a kitten would starve herself. At 2 months old she should be ready for her first vaccines. If you have not done that already, you should get her to your vet for her vaccines and an exam. That way your vet can check her over thoroughly (including her mouth) to see if there is anything to be concerned about. I cannot really tell much from a couple photos other than the fact that is adorable! Hope this helps. Best wishes.
