Feeding Guide
Feed overweight cats according to the guidelines under Weight Reduction Feeding. When your cat’s ideal weight is achieved, switch to Maintenance Feeding. Introduce NATURAL CHOICE® Healthy Weight Adult Cat Food by mixing it with the old food for the first few days. Free choice feeding is recommended, and daily portions may vary according to your cat’s age, weight and activity level. Place the total recommended amount in your cat’s dish at the same time every day. Then your cat will nibble throughout the day, satisfying the natural instinct to eat smaller, more frequent meals. To realize all of the benefits the NATURAL CHOICE® Cat brand has to offer, you should make it your cat’s only source of nutrition.
