Can we pin this by any chance?

How do you calculate the calorie requirements for your cat, so that you know how much dry or canned, or even raw to feed?

I go by what Catinfo.org suggests: approximately 20 to 25 calories per pound of ideal body weight daily. Every cat is different so some may need more or less calories daily to maintain weight.
