Obviously, then, feeding only once or twice a day isnât a good idea either. So how often should a cat be fed? A minimum of three times a day for adults, four if you can manage it, and at least four times a day for kittens.
Plan on feeding newborn kittens every two to two and a half hours for the first week or two; by the time they're three weeks old, they'll need fed in two-and-a-half to three-and-a-half-hour intervals; at four weeks, they can eat every four to five hours.
