Hi, I have a 10 month old neutered main coon male kitten. I noticed a few days ago that he looks a lot thinner than he used to, yet when I weighed him he still exactly the same weight as he was 2 months ago ( 11 lbs ). Is it possible that he is still growing height and lenght wise at this age? Or is it normal that he did not gained anything since he was 8 months old? He is eating fine and also very active. He is dewormed, vet checked, vaccinated etc. Thank you

Hi there. I wouldn’t be terribly concerned at weight evening off at this stage-it may still be that he picks up weight as he ages, but right now I’m sure you still have an active kitten. He may well still be growing. It sounds like you take very good care of him, and if he is having no health issues-it sounds like everything is in order. I hope this helps.
