Our meal calculator will show you an amount to feed based on the weight and age of your cat. The industry standard for this calculation is 2-3% of adult body weight (the percentages for growing kittens are different). Our calculator recommends an amount the number of meatballs to feed based on this percentage.

For many owners who have not fed raw food before, the recommended quantity seems small in comparison to how much dry food they were feeding before. Don't worry! The meal calculator and subscription quantities are correct.

The reason for this difference is that dry and processed food is bulked up with fillers, such as wheat, rice, or potato, and the overall protein content is lower... so the cat must eat more of it to get the nutrients they need. Raw food is 70-80% meat and much higher in protein, so to get the nutrients the animal requires less food. It's that simple.

If you have concerns about this please get in touch to discuss the amount to feed Some animals have higher metabolisms than others and just need to eat more. Others may need to lose or gain weight. Any significant or rapid weight changes may be a sign of an underlying medical condition so you should speak with your vet.
