For some background, I used to have 6 cats and was feeding whatever was cheap. My situation has changed and I now have 1 cat and a much better financial situation. My cat is also getting a bit older (he’s 9) and he’s a bit chubby at 14 lbs. I don’t understand HOW he’s chubby because he eats 1/3 cup of dry food every morning and 1 small can of wet food every afternoon, which doesn’t seem like much. None the less, I’ve decided to get him on some better quality food and have been doing my research.
I’ve been looking at tiki cat, and their website says to feed 2-3 small cans of wet food for each 7 lbs of body weight. So according to this, my 14 lb cat should get 4-6 cans of food every single day?! That can’t be right??? Please give me some perspective or tell me if I’m not calculating that right. Yes my cat is big, but I know other people who have even bigger cats and I know they’re not feeding them 6 cans of food every day.
