I'm sorry to hear about Nala. I would be concerned that there may be an issue with his crop, such as a hole in it, something causing an obstruction, illness or infection, or other issue, especially if you cannot fill it all the way or he vomits up any extra. Having a vet take a look in person is best to try and see if there are any visible issues with it that can be found. Until you can get to your vet, feeding smaller meals more often may help Nala get enough food to keep growing without overfilling his crop and making him ill.
