Question

Your cat’s vet recommends a diet for your cat of no more than 1,800 calories per week. In a 7-day week, how many daily calories you can feed your cat and still be following the vet’s recommendation?

Answer 1

The average indoor cat should have 20 calories per pound to maintain weight. The average outdoor only cat should have 35 calories per pound to maintain weight. Indoor/outdoor cats are somewhere in between. o If your indoor cat weighs 10 pounds, then they should be eating approximately 200 calories per day.
