Questions
My Male Cat Rockey. He is 13 years old, weights 17pounds. He is on Hills Prescription Weight Management. Both wet and dry. He gets 1/4can in the Am / Pm. And 3/4 of a cup of dry throught the day along with some Temptations Treats . What to Expect?
- The amount you feed your cat should be determined by your veterinarian. My cat was 13.5 lbs and overweight because she is a small/short cat. The vet tech calculated that I should feed 1/4 can (small 3 oz can) AM and PM, equaling 1/2 can per day and 1/3 cup of dry metabolic per day. She lost 1 pound a year, which the vet is happy with - slow weight loss is good. Over 3 years she has lost 3 lbs and is a good weight (could lose a little more) but was maintaining until Hill's stopped making the food (Covid pandemic - guess they can't get the imported ingredients). Since your cat is 17 pounds perhaps Vet will start him with a little more food than my cat and go to less when he loses some weight. 3/4 cup dry sounds like alot to me. I would NOT give the cat Temptations treats!! My vet specifically said do not give the cat any other food while on Hill's Metabolic or it will not work! The cat can have catnip (the real thing - the plant either fresh or dried, not catnip treats). For a treat, I give my cat some of the measured dry food (part of the 1/3 cup). I divide the 1/3 cup by 3 and feed her dry 3 times a day and wet/canned twice a day. Good luck!

Can you please recommend a diet for a cat with Feline pancreatitis, currently feeding Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Feline Sensitivity Control Wet food. He only eats wet food.
Our cat has been on Hills r/d for 2 years and has lost 2 pounds. Is that healthy to be for that long?
I am trying to help a 13-year-old cat put on weight. He has never liked wet food but I remember helping an older cat with health problems to get some calories by feeding A/D wet food. Is there a similar super palatable food that is not vet prescribed that I might try? My cat's health is good. Recent blood work by my vet showed not problems at all. Thanks.
My 15 year old cat has stage 2 kidney disease. She shows no changes in her personality or daily habits. She will not eat any of the renal wet prescription diet food that our vet has suggested. What would be the best brand of store shelf wet food for her? I have been reading labels for high protein and moisture, good Omega 3, low phosphorus and alot of brands seem to be about the same. She is a fussy eater.
my 8 year old cat does not drink much water. I changed her to wet Pro Plan Urinary food as suggested by the vet. She uses the poop box. But I have noticed her appetite is less and she lays around a lot more. I am worried about diabetes even though she does not have the obvious symptoms. Was treated for urinary tract problem but vet did not test her urine just prescribed antibiotic. Any suggestions?
12yr old cat dropping weight from 11 lbs to 8 lbs in past 4 yrs. had anal glands cleaned out week ago. Still pulling fur out hind area and tail
Sorry I forgot to ask, Regarding kovu having decreased appetite and losing weight, how much should a 1 year old cat eat? He used to eat 5 or more ounces wet food and 1/2 cup dry food a day. With his decreased appetite he eats no Dry food and anywhere from no wet food, to 1 and 1/2 ounces twice a day. The most he’s eaten since he’s been losing weight was yesterday and he ate 2 1/2 ounces wet food twice
I have two cats, one of my cats has been prescribed Royal Canin Urinary S/O by vets to treat struvite crystals however he hates the wet food he won't eat it what so ever, will buying the dried food of Royal Canin S/O be safe to use for him? Also will my other cat be allowed to eat this also?
Hi I have a male cat one and half years old and i want a good dite for him what can i cook to him feed him by the way he had a urine infection and i cut out the dry food only chicken and lots of water . And i wanted to ask what couse urine infection?? And what can i do to preventing that from comeing agine Thank you for your time
My two cats are experiencing diarrhea when eating dry food. Each of them has it like half an hour after eating. My vet gave them a “gastrointestinal enhancer” and antibiotics, and they worked for a while but then the problem still persists. They complain of no other symptoms and live indoors normally. They’ve been vaccinated. They eat mainly a dry food containing about 30-32% protein, could that much protein content affect their digestive system? Thanks
I have been wondering this for a while now. But I recently (Dec 5 2018) adopted a lovely 1 year old male cat who I was told weighted 10lbs when i got him. Now they did tell me his food (hill science diet adult 1-6) but not how much he was eating. So I followed the guidelines on the bag which said 1/2 cup for a 10lbs cat. He always goes crazy at meal time so I'm worried am I underfeeding him? Also he looks like he's lost weight but I also don't have a scale to weight him and brushed recently
Royal canin or earthborn?? Thos are the choices i can buy from now
