SPCA has paper collar downloads. Can you affix one to him to see if you can get in contact with the owners? If no one contacts you, he could be abandoned/stray and you can contact a rescue group to trap him...
We would really need more information....
I would state that many members find Solensia a big quality of life improvement for an older cat. But what's the reason for a 7 year old to have it? Does she have arthritis?
Is there someone in your community who could volunteer to help you with...
No one can say for sure without assessing his body condition. Cats have individual metabolisms and activity levels. :)
If you look at the chart and assess your cat, does he have hips? Can you feel his ribs easily? Does he have a small pouch on his tummy but not too much?
If yes to all...
Definitely okay as long as you are keeping an eye on hydration. Just like dry food, the freeze dried food will absorb water in the tummy when eaten dry. Not usually an issue but each cat is an individual.
Stress can also result in a few grey hairs. Calcifer was so stressed from his move from foster home to here that he developed a few, poor little guy. Just on his neck like that.
He was born in that foster home and had a good easy life there. So of course a move and all by himself was a big...
Most things state 10 to 30 calories per pound depending on activity level and metabolism of the specific cat.
You need to watch based on body condition.
If he's under the age of 2, he may still be growing as well. So that could be why hes gaining weight, if his body condition looks good.

Any dry food is highly processed, regardless of whether it is grain free, grain, low or high cost.
You could...
You're not going to know anything until there's some gated times.
They were doing fine with the doors, so a little set back doesn't normally hope. Don't throw the towel in with one little bump. Just keep at what you're doing with the doors until you have the gate and that gives them more...
...we installed a ceiling fan. Cal stayed through guests, the drill, everything yesterday. Ate in the carrier again (open).
We turned the fan on, he casually left the room a bit later and then when he went to come back in, he realized it was moving and is terrified of it.
So now we are...
Nobel had deferred aggression at me once and it was from a neighbour's cat coming to our yard. I also had a hospital trip and antibiotics.
We worked on his anxiety, and with the neighbours in keeping the cat out of our backyard and he never did this again.
Some cats work hyperthyroidism have normal T4 levels (what the blood work tests for). There are some other tests for hyperthyroidism.
