Marx, our male BSH, is now 1yo and weigths 4.7 kg. He's an indoor only cat and has been neutered half a year ago.
Since he's appetite is declining I guess he's now officially an adult, even though I've read that BSHs are considering "big breeds" which take longer to mature?
Anyway, I'm trying to figure out how much wet food he needs on a daily basis. I'm familiar with the calorie count, but that is a bit difficult since here in China they don't put that info on the package.
We've been through pretty much all the wet food available here and after a while he stopped eating most of them. We're left with some pouches which are pretty much the equivalent of Chinese Whiskas (considering the nutritional value). I know that's not perfect, but at least it's not dry food.
The thing with that kind of food is that they only put feeding recommendation on the packaging that includes an amount of dry food, so how would I know how much to give him if I'm only feeding wet?
And if any owner of a BSH is reading this: how much bigger can I expect him to get?
Thanks everyone for reading through the whole thing
