Daily Feeding Guidelines:
Adult cats should be fed either once or twice per day. The manufacturer suggests starting with the amounts recommended below. The amount of food should always be adjusted to suit your cat’s needs. These feeding guidelines are suggested only. Feeding amounts may vary by breed, activity level, temperament, and climate. Amounts are recommended for an average cat with normal activity.
4 lb. or less: Up to 3/8 cups
4-7 lb.: 3/8 to ½ cups
7-10 lb.: ½ - 5/8 cups
10-13 lb.: 5/8 - 2/3 cups
13-16 lb.: 2/3 - ¾ cups
Older Cats: As your cat begins to age, his energy expenditure will decrease. Decreasing the amount of food accordingly will allow for the maintenance of proper body weight for your less active cat. Older cats are sometimes more reluctant to eat hard foods. Adding larger amounts of Natural Balance® L.I.D. Limited Ingredient Diets® Duck & Green Pea Canned Cat Food will help the most "finicky" eaters enjoy their daily meals.
Feeding Management:
Do not add vitamins, minerals, or any other supplements, except upon the advice of a veterinarian. When switching your cat's diet, the change should be made gradually, by replacing the current food with increasing portions of Natural Balance® L.I.D. Limited Ingredient Diets® Green Pea & Duck Dry Cat Formula. The change should be completed after 5 to 7 days. The maintenance of proper body weight is most important for your cat's health. Consult your veterinarian for specific weight recommendations for your cat. Fresh clean water should be available at all times.
