How much should I feed my 4-month-old kitten? Am I feeding too much?

Question

How much food should I feed my 2 lb 4 month old kitten? I’m afraid I’m feeding him too much. He’s currently eating American Journey Salmon Dry Food. The directions say to feed him as much as he will eat. Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Mediumhair | Male | neutered | 3 months and 27 days old | 9 lbs

Hello. Pretty much this is good advice. A tiny young kitten needs to eat small meals frequently, so it is best to leave food available all day. You can offer treats & wet food 1-2 times daily. If Benji continues to grow & shows signs of obesity as she ages, then you can manage her meals, but it is almost impossible to overfeed a growing kitten.
