You're feeding the right amount, and 6-7 lbs for a 6 month old cat is about right, especially since yours is one of the larger breeds. Kittens are born weighing several ounces, and gain roughly a pound a month for about the first six months. I have one that weighed 8 lbs at 4 months, and currently tips the scale at 18 lbs. He's not a Norwegian Forest, but he's a very large cat, with a head the size of a grapefruit!
