I don't know the answer, but they were very quick about answering questions when I emailed them.

most premiums are 3.4-4.5 ounces in a cup(8 ounces on a measuring cup)

so well rough guess 4 cups per lb so 16.5 lbs would be 66 cups per bag

I copied this to help find ounces to a cup
One cup (120g) of our Reduced Calorie Cat Food contains 385 kilocalories, compared to one cup (139g) of our Ultra Premium Cat Food

28 grams to the ounce

the reduced calorie is 4.29 ounces to the 8 ounce measuring cup this one has 61.54 cups in a 16.5lb bag

the regular at 139 grams is equal to 4.96 ounces to the 8 ounce cup.. 53.23 cups in a 16.5 lb

thank you sharky,

at first when i calculated it i though i only got 25 cups per bag. i was thinking it might cost quite a bit to feed my 3 kitties.

50 cups sounds a whole lot better to me!

Slave2_Ragdolls,

i just switched my cats over from natural balance to innova evo. i calculated that evo is only slightly more and in my opinion a much better food.

and i agree, my kitties loved natural balance as well and it made their coats nice'n shiny.

Both foods are excellent quality
You cannot go wrong either way here
