Back story - last December when the boys went for their annual visit I mentioned that they both seemed always hungry, Mr Poe especially. Blood draw for thyroid showed all well in that regard. But vet said they'd both lost some weight.
They are fed Fancy Feast and / or Tiny Tiger, depending on what's available these days. Pate only.
So I upped it from two 3-ounce cans per cat to two and a half cans per cat per day.
Domino is not long hair by any means, just somewhat fluffy. He has been looking . . . plump. I weighed him yesterday and he is over 12 pounds. Weighed Mr Poe and he is over 10 pounds. So Poe is good but Domino needs to lose some weight.
They have each been getting 1/2 can for breakfast, 3/4 can for lunch, 1/2 can for dinner, 3/4 can at bedtime. Think I will change so Domino gets only 1/2 can for lunch. It will be slow, feeding only 1/4 can less per day, but that seems a sensible way to go about getting him back to a good weight. Agreed?
