Default cat weight

Is approx. 4 pounds a good weight for a 13-14 weeks old male kitten? I'm
asking because he is quite tall and has a long body, so he seems skinny, but
when you hold him (or scale him) you notice that he isn't that light. Also,
it's been a while since I had a kitten so I'm not sure. Thanks for any info!

I think that's about right -- I was thinking it was about 1 lb per month
in the beginning.

If the kitten seems healthy and has been wormed, also if the spine is
not real bony down his back, I wouldn't worry about it.
