Hi,

My Marcel is a tiny fella, currently 1.4 lb. at 17 weeks. He has kibble available at all times, Nutrical am/pm (usually).

I want to ensure he gains as much weight as he can, while he can - I'm hoping to get him to 3 lbs., and I think I'll be lucky if we get there.

Anyway, am feeding boiled chicken 3x week (about a 1/4 c., is that the right amount?) and want to add cottage cheese and yogurt.

How much cottage cheese should I offer at one time, what is an apropos "serving" for his size? How much yogurt? Should it be plain yogurt? Should I feed chicken every day? Is this too much protein overall?

SO many thanks!
Ann
