A starting point, not a prescription: Merck says a cat may need 30% more or less. Check the amount with your veterinarian and weigh your cat every few weeks.
Complete and balanced food should be at least 90% of the day and treats at most 10% (AAHA, 2021). On a day with treats, feed 90% of each amount.
Calories a day are 70 × (weight in kg)^0.75 × a life-stage factor, from the Merck Veterinary Manual and the 2021 AAHA guidelines; cups and cans split those calories by the share you choose and divide by the calories on each label. How we work it out.
