After reading many times here most cats need 4-6 ounces, preferably one 5.5 ounce can, every day, I wondered if Patricia should eat more of whatever I give her - which right now is dry Blue Buffalo Healthy Aging. It is available 24/7, so I was surprised it took two days to eat 1/4 cup. I know she likes it in kibble form (but she won't sniff the wet BB) and is not sick in any way. I timed how long it took to eat a full cup of dry food - five days. Her weight is normal - nine pounds and change. But if most cats eat a lot more than she does, it can't be good for her. Is she eating enough? Should I try to get her to eat more? I have no idea how much she was eating in Ohio because she always lived with another cat until last December and all three cats shared one set of bowls. I do remember she was not nearly as lazy before Wilbur died.
