We got our rescue cat just over a year ago (he is about 2 yo now). He constantly asks for food. We were feeding him one pouch a day plus dry food. He seemed quite big to me when we got him and in the past him mentioned this when at the vets but was told that he was ok.
When I took him for his booster last week I saw a different vet and she said he needs to loose weight. She weighed him and said he is 6.5kg and he should be 4kg - is is about the same size and when we got him.
I said we like to give him a mix of wet as well as dry food so she said give him 1 pouch a day and half of the recommended quantity of dry food. He goes outdoors but she said use indoor dry cat food as it has less calories. She said he should loose about a lb a week.
We have been doing this for a week and he is still constantly asking for food only he seems really hungry all of the time. It is my first ever cat and I just wanted opinions as to if I am giving him too little or if it is just downright greedy!
