At this point he's only eaten like 20 kibbles. Then for dinner he'll finish everything or almost. So at the end of the night he's only have about 1/4 cup of food not even (60-70 kibbles).
On weekends:
Same thing in the morning and for second feeding he'll eat a bit more but he eats the most at night ... again by the end of the day he might have only 1/4 cup of food.
Is it too little? I don't know how else to get him to eat normal! |
I don't know if it's too little. Is he gaining, appropriately?
You could add some warm water and soften his kibble. Or, even add a good quality canned food to his diet, so that you know he is getting enough to eat.
I bought my girls some timed food dishes and I keep little frozen ice packs inside to keep the food from spoiling, if I know we will be away at mealtime.
I'll look up a link for them.
