A few important notes

These are starting estimates from common guidelines (≈8 ml KMR per 100 g of body weight per day). Watch the kitten: a healthy belly is round but not tight, and weight should climb by 10–15 g every day. Adjust if they're hungry sooner or refusing.

Always feed warm (not hot) KMR, belly-down, and never on the back. If a kitten refuses to eat for more than a few hours, call a vet.
