Feeding Guidelines
Recommended Daily Feeding Portion For Cats Over the Age of Twelve Months
1 cup= 110 grams. Based on a standard 8oz measuring cup.
Feeding Adult Cats During Gestation and Lactation: Provide increasing amounts of food during the second half of gestation, up to twice as much as the normal intake. During lactation, provide as much as your cat will consume.
Feeding Kittens: Introduce dry food around the fifth week and provide as much food as kittens will consume from weaning until twelve months of age.
Feeding Wet and Dry Together: Decrease the amount of Tiki Cat® Indoor Health by approximately 1/8 cup for every small can (2.8-3 oz) of Tiki Cat® wet food. Feeding amounts vary with lifestyle, life stage and activity level.
Always consult your veterinarian if you are unsure how much to feed your cat. Make sure your cat has access to fresh, clean water.
