Answer: IF YOUR Cat weighs from 8 - 12 pounds, here are my recommendations. If you want him to lose weight, feed him 3/4 of a cup a day. If you want him to maintain his weight, feed him 1 cup a day. If you want him to gain weight, feed him anything between 1 - 1 1/2 cups.
Answer:
To expand on the first answer, this really does depend on your cat, and what the quality of food is. Smaller, lighter cats will naturally eat less, whereas a bigger or bulky cat will eat more. That said, a cat will eat far more if fed a lower quality food to get the nutrition it needs, and less if fed a premium quality food.
The best way to find out how much you should feed YOUR cat is to keep an eye on his or her weight. You can do this by weighing him once a week to see if he gains or loses weight, or feeling for any extra layers of fat over his ribs. Be sure to consult a veterinarian first in order to find out the cat's weight and health.
The Average cat is 8 - 12 pounds. Using this scale, it depends on what you want to do with your cat's weight. If you want him to lose weight, feed him a little less and switch to a food that has no grains, corn, wheat or other cereal in, as this is usually converted into fat as it provides a cat with no nutrition at all. This must be done for a prolonged period of time to see a difference in the cat's weight, if you're trying to make him lose or gain weight. Do not feed it to him all at one time or leave the food out all day. Ignore him if you have to if he begs for food.
Every cat is different, and how much you feed your cat really depends on his or her weight, energy levels and the quality of food.
This largely depends on the size of the cat and the quality of food it is given. Smaller, lighter cats will naturally eat less, whereas a bigger or bulky cat will eat more.
A cat's food is also a huge factor in how much it eats: A cat will eat far more if fed a lower quality food to get the nutrition it needs, and will eat much less if fed a premium quality food that has a high meat content and no grains.
