Like humans, every cat is different, while there are standard serving sizes – you will most likely want to talk to your pet’s veterinarian and get an idea of how much food your pet is actually supposed to be eating based on their weight, age, and several other variations.
What is causing this overwhelming number of overweight cats? It’s most likely a combination of cats living in-doors 24/7 and their owners leaving them an endless supply of food to nibble on all day long. It used to be common for cats to be indoor/outdoor animals. But, over the years, it has become less common for owners to let their beloved cats wander around outside aimlessly. So, your pets are probably getting much less exercise than they need. You might want to consider taking your cat outside on a leash for a walk or maybe investing in a cat tower for your pets to climb on and swing from like wild animals inside the house.

We’re all guilty of it. Every time the cat’s dish is empty, we full it to the brim with more food. It’s easy and saves time, and your pets love having a bottomless buffet – but are you hurting them in the long run? Just like humans, cats should be eating 3 healthy meals a day, not nibbling all day long.
Every cat is different, if you think your pet is getting a bit on the pudgy side, talk to your vet about how much they should be eating. Just like humans, obesity causes a slew of health problems for your pets, like Diabetes or ever heart issues.

It’s important to make sure that they are on track when it comes to their weight. And although you may feel a little bad when that dish is empty, you can always fill it on the next feeding time. It’s important that they get some exercise as well.

Great article, this should be shared to those who overfeeding their cats. I have to admit fat cats are so fluffy and adorable but it’s just like human they will come a time that they’ll also face health issue later in time. Therefore moderation is what’s best for animals and human in general.

We’re also guilty of overfeeding our first ever Flowerhorn fish. We learned our lesson the hard way, and we promised not to do the same mistake with our second Flowerhorn.
