HI all,
Being an absolute newbie, I've got questions about feeding a cat.
1) how many meals per day and how much per meal should a cat be fed? (don't know if it matters, but it's a regular size cat with short fur - sorry, being so new to this I don't know what info might be helpful).
In the previous abusive home, this cat was often starved (would be fed a handful of dry food in the am and that would be it for the whole day). So, I understand that we cannot just let him gorge right now.
So, what's the best way to change his eating routine/ease him into the new eating routine?
2). what are the best and worst cat foods? (in terms of nutrition - I've already seen a list of toxic stuff here, so I am not asking about dangerous foods, just about best and worst nutrition-wise).
Are there any foods he should be eating daily/weekly/only occasionally?
3) what are best cat treats? both - commercially available and home-made?
Thank you!
