I'm feeding my girls canned Friskies pate. Autumn has to eat the Indoor line (no gravy). Holly the regular pate,also no gravy. My question is how much fat, percentage wise should a cat get a day? Regular Friskies pate is around 4-5% a can. The Indoor line is 3%.

Actually, the "no gravy" canned Friskies is healthier because it has no added carbs, and unless you have a cat with an obesity problem, you don't need to worry about the fat content.  Why does Autumn have to eat the "indoor" line -- is she overweight?  If so, just feed the two of them separately and pick up any leftovers.

I watch them closely when they eat and don't free feed. Autumn got sick a while back and she can only handle low fat now. Holly does need to lose two pounds. They get no people food and 1-3 grain free dental treats a day.
