About this calculator
A kitten's daily calorie needs start from its Resting Energy Requirement (RER), commonly approximated as 70 × (body weight in kg)^0.75, then multiplied up because growing kittens need roughly 2-3 times RER (versus about 1.2-1.6× for an adult cat) to fuel rapid tissue growth and a much higher metabolic rate. This calculator applies a chosen kcal-per-kilogram figure to the kitten's weight to estimate that daily energy target.
Veterinarians, veterinary technicians and cat breeders use calorie-per-weight guidance like this to set feeding amounts for kittens at different growth stages, cross-checking it against the calorie density printed on a specific kitten food's label to convert calories into grams or cups per day.
