We have recently adopted a Maine Coon mix...I'm not sure how long she was a stray before being found. When she was found she was quite underweight at 12 lbs. Now, 4 months later she is at 17 lbs. My questions is how much should we feed her? Her name is Em (Eating Machine). The vet said to only feed her a half cup of dry per day (this does not seem to be enough for a large cat)...we are feeding her closer to a cup a day (3/4 cup in the morning and 1/4 at night). She eats all the food immediately and then acts hungry for most of the day. While we can just barely feel her ribs, she doesn't look like she is overweight. We are deeding her a grain free dry food. Thoughts?
