How long will it take to put weight on a 5.5 lb kitten?

Revy found me three days ago and she is an absolute sweetheart! I took her to the vet yesterday and today to get her tested for diseases, fecal, vaccinated, and evaluated. The vet said she was healthy (just skinny) and they gave her revolution for kittens.

They estimated that Revy is 5 months old but I could’ve sworn she was only 3 months because of how small and scrawny she is. I can feel all of her bones and she eats very well. I found fleas on her today and had to make the unfortunate decision of giving her a bath (I feel awful) and even upset she still ate.

She’s sleeping now but I’m worried about how skinny she is. How long will it take her to get some meat on her bones? I feed her 2 cans a day of fancy feast kitten food with natural white chicken and she loves it. She has been active, using the bathroom, and sleeping (she doesn’t really play yet)

I still feel like I’m fucking up a bit here, am I feeding her enough should I bump it up to three/four cans??
