Feeding Guide

Ideal feeding amounts vary by age, weight, and activity level. Use this as an initial recommendation and adjust as needed. Divide the daily amount by the number of feedings. Always provide clean, fresh water. Along with dry food, we recommend feeding raw or wet food to help increase water in your cat’s diet.
