We have adopted a stray who is estimated to be around a year old and only very slightly underweight, if at all, according to our vet.
We have had her for about a month now. She has been spayed and dewormed and given a clean bill of health.
She acts famished despite being fed regularly. Will that ever change? She will eat anything you give her, and runs so fast when she hears the refrigerator open that she slips on the hardwood. She raises a ruckus and begs for food whenever someone so much as passes through the kitchen.
We feed her around 3.5 ounces of raw per day, and a few treats. Based on the guidelines I have read, that amount seems to be appropriate for a 7 lb. cat.
Is she going to stay this greedy? Is there anything we can do to make her feel more secure with respect to her food supply?
Thank you in advance for your advice.
