Depending upon kittens needs weights and ages to determine amount. Generally for a 12 week old kitten needing supplement or weight gain about 2 tablespoons 3x a day will suffice if kittens is readily uptaking this and seems to desire more at each feeding increase amount per serving. When kitten is obtained desired weight or general health decrease or stop all together the feedings. If diarrhea occurs stop feeding.
It is important that kitten also take in its normal kibble and or canned intake per day as well. It is normal to see a bit of decrease in canned/kibble intake when supplemented. A significant decrease in consumption of kibble and canned is a spoiled child decrease the amount of formula.
