I have two kittens and I adore them very much. I noticed that one kitten eat until the food run out and another kitten eat until she is full. One kitten, who eat until food runs out, gaining weight more than another kitten. Should I limit her feeding amount or what? They are only two months now. I do not want them suffer any serious disease. I want them to be healthy and happy life.

It sounds like the one may have worms so you should take it to the vet and have it checked out. Take a stool sample with you but you're going to have to be sure that it's from the one kitten that is eating so much so you'll know for sure. If you don't have it's stool checked out and it does have worms, the kitten could die from that so it's very important to have the little on checked out.

I had her deworm in first week of August. I can't take her to vet right away because of tropical storm is coming, so it is not good time for me to take her to vet until storm is over. I have to wait until storm pass by then I will take her vet immediately. Thank you so much for giving me information. I am in Florida.

Oh I agree with you, you can't go anywhere right now... Oh I feel for you!! Hopefully the storm isn't as bad as it was thought to be. Anyway, a kitten can get worms again later on in life from weeks to months down the road. Worms can come from fleas as well and that's why its so important to use frontline or revolution every month to protect your cat from getting worms as well as from flea bites. I use revolution for my 9 cats because it does a number of other things as well such as heartworm, intestinal worms and ear mites in cats. It's very effective in controlling fleas by killing adult fleas and its eggs on your cats. It is also effective in controlling the infestation of roundworms and hookworms in your cats. There's two different kinds, one for smaller cats such as kittens up to 5 lbs and then the larger ones from 5.1 - 15 lbs which are usually the older ones. Here's the link at where I buy it at for it's much much cheaper than the veterinarians price. Good luck!! Hope all ends well with that horrible storm!!
