I have a female kitty that should weigh about 12 pounds. She weighs 17. Eats dry food. Is there a formula for how much food she should have per day in order to lose weight safely?
Yes, she does move. But getting her to move more is a great idea.As LTS3 mentioned, slowly is the best and safest way for a cat to lose weight.
Can you get her to exercise more? Is she active at all right now? If not, try gently starting her out by having her follow you a little distance with the just-filled food bowl in your hand, and gradually increase the distance you travel so that she gains the benefits of exercise .
