How much should I feed my cat?
AI Answer
A typical healthy, indoor adult cat of about 4.5 kg needs roughly 200–250 calories a day, but needs vary with age, activity and weight.
How to work it out: check the calories per cup or can on the label, and follow the feeding guide as a starting point. Weigh your cat monthly and adjust by 10% if it's gaining or losing.
You should be able to feel the ribs easily without seeing them. Ask your vet for a target weight if unsure.
