How do I feed a newly adopted kitten?

Expert Answer

Provide ample food and water by age, size and activity; kittens need 4-6 meals daily and adults 2-3. When changing food, do it gradually to avoid gut upset.

Keep it quiet; a new cat is nervous and easily scared, so give a calm, comfortable environment without extra stress.
