The maths, with your numbers
No guesswork and no brand chart. This is the same calculation a vet does on paper, so you can check it.
What this means for the bowl
Felix Original Kitten Mixed Selection in Jelly is on the lighter side: at 710 kcal per kg it has less energy than 95% of the 20 wet cat foods in our list, so the bowl will look fuller for the same calories.
To show how much the food matters: a 1.8 kg kitten needs about 272 kcal a day. That is 4 ½ × 85 g pouch of this food, but 3 ½ × 85 g pouch of Purina Pro Plan Sterilised Beef and Chicken in Gravy and 4 ½ × 85 g pouch of Sheba Fine Flakes Poultry in Jelly. Same cat, same day, very different bowls.
Wet food is mostly water. Gram for gram, the average dry cat food in our list has about 5.5 times the calories of this one, which is why the wet portion looks so much bigger.
Kittens need about two and a half times their resting energy until they are a year old. The Merck Veterinary Manual notes that kittens can also be fed free choice. If you portion meals, weigh your kitten weekly and recalculate.
