Re: How often do you feed your cat?
Twice a day...we fill his bowl when we feed Misty. I dump whatever is in there after a day or two cuz he likes to eat the fresh food.
Are you feeding wet or dry?

Re: How often do you feed your cat?
Once a day. I give him dry food (He sticks his nose up at wet food) in the morning and it lasts him all day.

Re: How often do you feed your cat?
We leave out dry food all the time and I give her a small can of wet food in the mornings. I tried giving it to her two times a day and she wasn't eating the second can. Some nights she rubs that she's hungry and I feed her..I just kinda feel her out...she goes through phases...hth

Re: How often do you feed your cat?
Right now she's refusing to eat her usual food and on meds so we're feeding her chicken ALL day.
In fact she's on an appetite stimulant because she's down to 7 1/2 pounds. :( the vet said to feed her whatever she wants and she's off her thyroid meds.

She looks pretty weak and we're still trying anything to get her to eat. Her blood tests came back fine so it's frustrating. Don't you wish pets could talk sometimes?

Re: How often do you feed your cat?
If you think you are over feeding her then check with your vet. I can't leave food down as both my cats would eat it all, neither of them are "grazers" I also don't give them any dry food right now as Chablis had surgery and has an open wound on her cheek. I give them 2 cans of whiskas (used to be Sheba - in the little square can) each per day and Chablis gets a little whiskas cat milk and Bolly gets a little bit of dry food when Chablis is out of ear shot If I where to feed them in accordance to the feeding directions on the can of food they would both be huge! So just give your vet a quick call and they will let you know.

Re: How often do you feed your cat?
Lucy is fed 1/4 of a can in the am and a 1/4 of a can in the pm. I give her a 1/4 cup of dry food in the pm as well.
She is a Fatty McFatty (though I still insist she's big boned...and she is, but she's robust too). She is slimming down since I switched her to a more organic brand of food and cut back on her ration too.

Same here. Although I treat her on the weekends, and she gets wet food twice a day.

Re: How often do you feed your cat?
1 can of soft food every morning the 3oz can and I refill her bowl with hard food and water as needed. About every 2-3 days but I put an icecube in her water bowl as needed to cool it off. She, however, would rather drink from Gus' water bowl and he just sits and waits his turn even though it's his bowl
