I used to feed mine just the same but I changed to an old cat version of food, which had a different balance of vitamins and minerals

Abbe is 15+ she was diagnosed with a kidney complaint and is on powder ( no advertising ) the vet says its protein agrivated. so what we do is put down a small spoonful, about a dessert spoon ful and let her get on, when finished when she wants more repeat. Just to say a cat only has the stomach the size of a mouse. so don't over feed. old cats will gorge themselves and then be sick beeter small amounts frequently than one big meal

How often doesn't matter - 2-6 times a day is fine, depending on your cat' s preferences and what he is used too. The type of diet is far more important - senior diet if healthy, specialist diet if not (renal disease etc). A mixture of dry and wet is also better Than choosing one - some dry to help with teeth, and some wet to help reduce possibility of Feline lower urine tract disease

Hi, Just feed your cat as normal, sometimes its more hungry than others, i was told to give my older cats the senior cat food as anything else has to much protein in it and this can affect their main organs (liver, kidneys) Good Luck!!!!!

two times an afternoon and because he's used to dry nutrition i in my opinion recommend doing a mixture, (a million/2 & a million/2). That way his physique does not flow into marvel over the exchange. remember that he's starting to be older, 13 is surprisingly solid, yet even moist nutrition won't help. in case you have not taken him to his VET those days then I recommend a verify up and clarify to them what's happening, they might have some medicine to assist him. solid success!

Twice a day, same as younger cats. It's a good idea to buy a senior food if you can, as it's less stressful on their organs.

I feed my cat twice a day and leave biscuits out for her all day just incase she would like to snack, just like we do through the day.
