Hi,
I took my cat in on Monday for some issues not related to weight. I found out she gained two pounds since April and now weighs 15 pounds! I knew she needed to lose weight before so I was switching her to mostly wet food with like 3 tbsp of dry for clicker training and as topper to get her to eat the wet and for overnight. I needed to add more wet due to her being diagnosed with cystitis. I thought if anything she would have lost not gained!! I was giving her between 200-250 calories and that was when she was 13 pounds. Now I'm not sure where to start if she was gaining on that. I'm thinking 200? She had blood work done in April and everything was normal. Any suggestions as to what calories to start at?
