The normal weight of a two-month-old kitten should be around 1.5-2 pounds. If it is only more than one pound, it means that the cat is too thin. It may be that the usual nutrition has not kept up. At this time, it is necessary to strengthen nutritional supplements. You can feed the cat some goat milk powder, milk cake or nutritional paste, etc., which can very well help the kitten replenish body protein. In addition, if the kitten usually eats a good diet and eats a lot but does not gain weight, it may be caused by parasitic infection and needs to be dewormed in time.

1. Malnutrition

If the owner only feeds the kitten a single food for a long time without eating other things or auxiliary supplies, it is easy to fail to keep up with the nutrition and become unbalanced, leading to malnutrition. In this regard, owners need to strengthen nutritional supplements. They can feed kittens milk cake cat food during the weaning period. Compared with other cat foods, this kind of cat food has nutrients that are easier to absorb and digest. At the same time, it can also be fed with goat milk powder, nutritional paste and other foods. , but it is necessary to adopt a feeding method of small meals and frequent meals to avoid indigestion in kittens.

2. Parasitic infection

If the kitten’s daily nutritional supplement is adequate and eats a lot, but the weight does not increase, then it should be considered to be caused by parasitic infection. Because parasites rob cats of their nutrients, cats will not gain weight no matter how much they eat. In this case, it is recommended to take the kitten to the pet hospital for relevant examinations in time to see if it is caused by parasitic infection. If so, the kitten needs to be dewormed in time.

When deworming kittens, owners should pay attention to the following points: First, since two-month-old kittens are lighter, the dose of deworming medicine must be controlled according to the weight of the kitten. Otherwise, the kitten may be poisoned. Secondly, if the kitten and the mother cat live together, after giving the anthelmintic medicine to the kitten, try to avoid the mother cat licking the kitten to avoid poisoning the mother cat.
