Some cats are genetically pointed at thinness. Do you have a picture of her
you can post somewhere and point us too? For instance, if she looks like she has quite a bit of oriental in her, it would be natural to be quite thin. "dee ray via CatKB.com" wrote in message ...

No, they are not eating something special. Try a higher grade kitten like
Wellness. You might try adding a vitamin (some are tasty enough they will eat them as treats.) Hopefully, others will have ideas. How much does she weigh? "dee ray via CatKB.com" wrote in message ...

It's all natural & made from high quality ingredients... Might help. I'm assuming the vet has given a clean bill of health when it comes to worms? -- Mathew Butler to 2 kittens: Chablis & Muscat En Vino Veritas |

My cat was half Burmese and was always skinny no matter what she ate. But
she lived to be 21 years old. So I wouldn't worry some cats are built like that. Gini "dee ray via CatKB.com" wrote in message ...

Gini I agree, Gini. "Skinny" is better than fat, unless Skinny means really, really thin to the point that the bones show. "dee ray via CatKB.com" wrote in message ...
