It was hard when Elvis was here to distinguish who was eating what, but now
it appears Randi is eating 2 or 2-1/2 3 oz. cans a day and very little dry
food. The vet said to cut him down to one small can a day and two cups of
dry. But he doesn't eat that much dry food.
Good. Wet is better for him by far. If he prefers it, there is no reason to
switch him.
If he is too fat, just reduce the amount of wet he gets. Just don't reduce it
too much too fast. Cats need to lose weight slowly.
More exercise is helpful, just like with people.
How much do your cats eat? He is a big cat, not just fat.
Whoa!!
2 cups dry AND 3 oz wet daily for one cat ?!
My DOG doesn't eat 2 cups of food daily. Then again, she's a small dog... LOL
I have three cats -- 8, 10, and 13 pounds repectively.
These THREE cats (who, unfortunately, prefer dry) SHA
Morning: 1 cup of dry
Evening: variable:
A: 1 cup dry
B: 3 oz wet and 1/4 - 1/2 cup dry
C: 5.5 - 6 oz wet
