Cat food quantity?

MiCr0 · 2006-01-25 10:23:03

Hi, I've got a 3 year old female cat (some sort of generic tabby). She weighs about 4.5kg - and is very long ;-) Any idea how much a cat this size should be fed? At the moment, she's getting 2 "pouches" a day, and maybe some dry food. Is this a normal amount?

Sounds ok to me - my cats have dried food available all day long & get a couple of pouches a couple of times a day. I have 10 cats & they are all happy, glossy & a good weight & size.

This is ok if she has access to dry food at all times, otherwise it is probably a little bit on th elow side. But she'll let you know if she's hungry I have two cats (both with free outside access) and one of them would eat 4 pouches if he could. And he'd leave in no doubt whatsoever that he is hungry:)

It will say on the pouches how many she needs per day.
