Cats differ allot in the amount of food each one needs for optimal weight and health. Most adult cats I see are overweight. Overweight cats store their fat on their tummies so they may not appear fat to their owners. Growing cats and kittens require considerably more food per pound body weight to thrive than adults or senior cats do.
The following table is an estimate of how much your cat should eat. It is not precise because the compositions of various brands differ.

Is it legal for a neighbor to feed your cats especially after you tell her not to?
If the cats are yours and they are well feed by you then the lady has no right to feed them and if something should happen to one of them like if one of them got sick after being fed by her you could take her to court possibly. IMPROVEMENT:: If your neighbor comes on to your property and feeds your cats or throws food on to your property to feed your cats then it is illegal...HOWEVER If your neighbor just puts out food on her own property and your cats venture over on her property to eat it then it is not illegal and there is noting you can do except keep your animals confined to your own property..
