YEP - I think Pipsqueak is like your Busgy ..... He just can't go this long between meals - or the raw just comes right up as soon as it goes down. Too much in one feeding and his stomach was too empty to tolerate the raw. The problem for me is that Pipsqueak will NOT eat the Halo (:shocker:... I know) OR the S&C freeze-dried Chicken. But of course, he would LOVE LOVE some dry kibble to tide him over.6oz for Hope, who is 13lbs, and 6.75 oz for Bugsy, who is 20lbs. This is the most I can feed Bugsy..... he is not gaining nor losing weight - he is keeping...... Hope on the other hand, is gaining, as she keeps eating the bites left off from Bugsy ::smshfrk:
To preventing Bugsy from thrwoing up, I am now starting to give him Halo treats in between meals - so is kelly, but not many - just a couple pieces, rehydrated...... for chewing :nod: and only in between the long periods without food.
IMHO it depends on the weight of the cat, but also on the activity level and the lean weight - Bugsy's lean weight is NOT 20lbs, and he is a total couch potato. Different from Hope, who is much more active, for example :nod:
