| How Much Should Livi Be Eating? I just want to see if you think that Livi is eating enough. I feed her 1/4 cup of canned Canidae in the morning and then in the evening, I give her 1/4 cup of dry Canidae. I leave the dry food out until she finishes it. It generally takes her about 2 days to finish this amount of dry....so I guess that would mean that (on average) she eats about 1/3 dry each day, give or take. She is at 2.15lbs and turned 14 weeks today. Does this sound like she is eating enough? She would eat more of the wet (canned) if I let her, but I didn't want her to only fill up on the wet. I thought that it would help her little baby teeth to eat some dry as well. Thanks! Tammy |

If the food is there and available i wouldn't worry about her eating enough. She's pacing herself and its not like she'll starve because she has no food. Food is there and if she wants to eat it she can. Morgan would also love nothing more then to consume lots and lots of wet food but that was only a treat once or twice a week.

| I feed Canidae as well, but I throw the bag away, but I know my two (at 4 and 5 lbs) get 1/2 cup each a day. Sometimes they'll eat it all, others not. I guess since she has it, she'll eat what she wants.. you can't force her to.
