Por lo general, los reci\u00e9n nacidos est\u00e1n amamantando a su madre o a su gato adoptivo. Si se separan de su madre, deber\u00e1n ser alimentados con biber\u00f3n hasta que tengan edad suficiente para el destete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.petmd.com\/cat\/centers\/kitten\/nutrition\/evr_ct_weaning_kittens_what_to_feed_a_kitten\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Los gatitos pueden ser destetados a las 3-4 semanas<\/a> of age. Around that time, you can introduce some more solid foods. However, it\u2019s important to observe your kittens and their development. Some of them may not be ready to be weaned that early. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cuando sea posible, mire a la mam\u00e1 gata para saber cu\u00e1ndo los beb\u00e9s est\u00e1n listos para recibir alimentos s\u00f3lidos.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/silver-tabby-kitten-on-floor-stockpack-unsplash-960x1200.jpg\" alt=\"Gatito atigrado plateado en el suelo\" class=\"wp-image-630\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/silver-tabby-kitten-on-floor-stockpack-unsplash-960x1200.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/silver-tabby-kitten-on-floor-stockpack-unsplash-304x380.jpg 304w, https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/silver-tabby-kitten-on-floor-stockpack-unsplash-576x720.jpg 576w, https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/silver-tabby-kitten-on-floor-stockpack-unsplash-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/silver-tabby-kitten-on-floor-stockpack-unsplash-1229x1536.jpg 1229w, https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/silver-tabby-kitten-on-floor-stockpack-unsplash-1638x2048.jpg 1638w, https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/silver-tabby-kitten-on-floor-stockpack-unsplash-10x12.jpg 10w, https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/silver-tabby-kitten-on-floor-stockpack-unsplash-1568x1960.jpg 1568w, https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/silver-tabby-kitten-on-floor-stockpack-unsplash-672x840.jpg 672w, https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/silver-tabby-kitten-on-floor-stockpack-unsplash-scaled.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"kitten-dietary-needs\">Necesidades diet\u00e9ticas del gatito<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">M\u00e1s que los gatos mayores, los gatitos necesitan una dieta completa y equilibrada. La comida tiene que ser rica en nutrientes necesarios para el desarrollo. Sin esas vitaminas y minerales, tu gatito podr\u00eda experimentar deficiencias da\u00f1inas. Busque alimentos con prote\u00ednas, calcio y DHA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Never give your kitten cow\u2019s milk. While the flavor is tasty to cats, many of them are lactose intolerant after being weaned. This is because the enzyme needed to digest lactose disappears once a kitten stops suckling their mother.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Una vez que sus gatitos est\u00e9n listos para recibir comida h\u00fameda y seca, simplifique la transici\u00f3n. Humedezca las croquetas secas o comience con peque\u00f1as porciones de pat\u00e9 para gatitos h\u00famedo. Mezclar con un poco de agua hasta que parezca m\u00e1s avena. En el lapso de 2 semanas, disminuya la cantidad de agua que mezcla.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alrededor de las 8 semanas, la mayor\u00eda de los gatitos comen comida para gatos seca y h\u00fameda sin ning\u00fan problema. Puedes empezar a ofrecer una mayor variedad de estilos y sabores. Solo aseg\u00farate de elegir comida hecha para gatitos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-much-food-does-a-kitten-need-each-day\">\u00bfCu\u00e1nta comida necesita un gatito cada d\u00eda?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Este programa de alimentaci\u00f3n te ayudar\u00e1 a determinar con qu\u00e9 frecuencia debes alimentar a los gatitos seg\u00fan su edad y peso.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"week-one-kitten-feeding-schedule\">Horario de alimentaci\u00f3n del gatito de la primera semana<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During this time, kittens are very frail and weigh no more than 4 ounces. That said, they gain weight rapidly during the first few weeks of life thanks to their mother\u2019s nutrient-dense milk. You won\u2019t have to worry much during this time. Kittens won\u2019t need anything but their mother\u2019s milk at first. The only time you have to worry is when there is no mother cat around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Si usted tiene que <a href=\"https:\/\/resources.bestfriends.org\/article\/bottle-feeding-kittens\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">alimentar con biber\u00f3n a un gatito<\/a>, be prepared to do it more often than you\u2019d originally thought. Kittens generally nurse every 2-3 hours for about 45 minutes during Week One. Once they have eaten, they sleep. Each session should provide no more than 15 ml or 1 tablespoon of kitten formula.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sin embargo, debido a que esto requiere mucha mano de obra, intenta encontrar un gato sustituto para ayudar a amamantar al peque\u00f1o.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"week-two-and-three-schedule\">Calendario de la semana dos y tres<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kittens that are 2-3 weeks old still need to eat every 2-3 hours and will sleep a lot. They need about \u00bd a tablespoon of kitten formula each time. These next couple of weeks will be exciting, because the little fuzz balls are growing at a grueling pace. Their eyes start to open, and they begin moving around the space for the first time. Monitor the weight of the kittens. 10 ounces is considered healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"week-four-and-five\">Semana cuatro y cinco<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tratar de determinar con qu\u00e9 frecuencia alimentar a los gatitos que tienen entre 4 y 5 semanas de edad. Este es un per\u00edodo que se trata menos de frecuencia y m\u00e1s de tama\u00f1o de la porci\u00f3n. Los gatitos quieren mamar unas 3 veces al d\u00eda y consumir unas 3 cucharadas de f\u00f3rmula.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If a 4-5 week old kitten is getting enough food, they will weigh around 14-16 oz. By the end of week 5, you won\u2019t need to worry about bottle feeding the little ones anymore. You can start placing the kitten formula in a saucer and let them lap it up from there. Since this is also the time mama cat would naturally wean the kittens, you may even want to introduce a little pate mixed into the formula.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"week-six\">Semana seis<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A la sexta semana de vida, puedes pasar del sustituto de la leche para gatitos al pat\u00e9 de f\u00f3rmula y alimento seco para gatitos. Haga una papilla (como se mencion\u00f3 anteriormente) mezclando agua con las croquetas secas o el pat\u00e9. Reduzca gradualmente la cantidad de agua en la comida. Haga esto cuatro veces al d\u00eda durante 1 a 2 semanas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By the end of week six, you can decrease the frequency of feeding to about 3 times a day. If you have two or more kittens, make sure you are putting down multiple plates of food. You don\u2019t want the kittens to become aggressive or fight over the meal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"week-seven-and-eight-kitten-feeding-schedule\">Horario de alimentaci\u00f3n de los gatitos de las semanas siete y ocho<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Si la mam\u00e1 gata anda por ah\u00ed, puede dejar que sus gatitos sigan mamando hasta los 2 meses aproximadamente. \u00bfLos gatitos intentan amamantar m\u00e1s que comer? Separarlos de su madre por un tiempo. Al final de la octava semana, los gatitos deber\u00edan querer comida h\u00fameda y seca 3 veces al d\u00eda en lugar de amamantar.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"901\" src=\"https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/orange-tabby-kittens-stockpack-unsplash-1200x901.jpg\" alt=\"gatitos atigrados naranjas\" class=\"wp-image-631\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/orange-tabby-kittens-stockpack-unsplash-1200x901.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/orange-tabby-kittens-stockpack-unsplash-380x285.jpg 380w, https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/orange-tabby-kittens-stockpack-unsplash-720x541.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/orange-tabby-kittens-stockpack-unsplash-768x577.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/orange-tabby-kittens-stockpack-unsplash-1536x1153.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/orange-tabby-kittens-stockpack-unsplash-2048x1538.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/orange-tabby-kittens-stockpack-unsplash-16x12.jpg 16w, https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/orange-tabby-kittens-stockpack-unsplash-1568x1177.jpg 1568w, https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/orange-tabby-kittens-stockpack-unsplash-840x631.jpg 840w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-often-to-feed-kittens-canned-food\">Con qu\u00e9 frecuencia alimentar a los gatitos con comida enlatada<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once a kitten is older than 8 weeks old, you can take on a more relaxed style of feeding them. While they are still going to be ravenous and scream for food throughout the day, kittens won\u2019t need as much nutrition as they did at 2-3 weeks old. A kitten that is 12 weeks old can eat three separate meals a day, kind of like breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Continue on with this schedule until about 6 months old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At 6 months, kittens have matured enough that they are near their adult weight and size. Keep an eye on your kitten\u2019s weight gain. If they gain weight too fast, you may have to put them on a diet. For kittens growing at an average pace, you can how often you feed them down to twice a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"it-s-chow-time\">It\u2019s Chow Time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Figuring out how often to feed kittens comes down to how old they are and what they need. When kittens have their mother, you won\u2019t have to worry about feeding them often\u2014not until about 6-8 weeks old. Afterwards, kittens get fed three times a day until 6 months old. After that, it\u2019s twice daily for the rest of their lives (unless they need to go on a diet).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Conoce m\u00e1s sobre tu compa\u00f1ero felino en nuestro post: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.walkiesandwhiskers.com\/es\/datos-interesantes-sobre-los-gatos\/\"><strong>Datos interesantes sobre los gatos<\/strong><\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"faqs\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">preguntas frecuentes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1691673121877\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">\u00bfCu\u00e1nta comida debes darle a un gatito?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Como pauta general, aqu\u00ed tienes una cantidad de alimentaci\u00f3n diaria aproximada para gatitos seg\u00fan su edad:<br\/>6 a 8 semanas: alrededor de 1\/4 a 1\/3 de taza de alimento h\u00famedo o seco dividido en varias comidas.<br\/>8-12 semanas: aproximadamente 1\/3 a 1\/2 taza de alimento h\u00famedo o seco dividido en varias comidas.<br\/>3-6 meses: Aproximadamente 1\/2 a 3\/4 taza de alimento h\u00famedo o seco dividido en 3-4 comidas.<br\/>6-12 meses: alrededor de 3\/4 a 1 taza de alimento h\u00famedo o seco dividido en 3 comidas.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1691673190987\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">\u00bfDebo alimentar a mi gatito 2 o 3 veces al d\u00eda?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Una pauta general para la frecuencia de alimentaci\u00f3n seg\u00fan la edad de su gatito es:<br\/>6 a 8 semanas: a esta edad, los gatitos normalmente todav\u00eda est\u00e1n amamantando o haciendo la transici\u00f3n a alimentos s\u00f3lidos.
