Great question! Luna should be fed three times a day, morning, afternoon, and evening. Take the daily allotment recommended on her food bag, and divide it into three equal portions. When she is six months old, she can be fed twice daily, once in the morning and once in the evening. Best of luck, I hope this helps!

    How much you should feed Luna depends on the type of food you are feeding her. Each brand of food will have a different daily amount, and that will be in the instructions on the bag of food. She should be fed twice daily, once in the morning and evening, so divide the daily recommended allotment into two equal portions to feed her. I hope this helps!
