No, a can of wet food is generally not too much for a kitten, but it depends on their age, weight, and the specific nutritional guidelines of the food. Kittens have high energy needs and require more calories per pound than adult cats to support their growth. It's best to follow the feeding guidelines on the can and consult your veterinarian to ensure your kitten is receiving the appropriate amount of food and nutrients. Multiple small meals throughout the day are often recommended.
