A good practice is dry food and water out all day and wet food once or twice in small amounts. Male cats are prone to UTIs, and the wet food prevents the crystals from forming. Thank you for being a rescue mom!!!

I give the girls a quarter can of food every morning. There is a large bowl of dry out all day. The younger likes to play with the dry food, I'm sure there is several cups of dry food underneath the stove from the pinhead knocking it under there. The bowl of water is on the far side of the room. If it is too close to the food they will drop dry food into the water.... ewwww.

I feed mine Fanci Feast twice a day...about half a can each time...I leave dry food and water out all the time.. It’s important that you read labels. Meat by products should not be first on the ingredient list...it should be turkey or chicken or whatever, and then broth. The ones that start out with “water sufficient for processing” are not healthy. When he gets bigger he may want a whole can. My vet says it’s important to give a cat wet food and leave out the dry food for snacking....and they should always have water available. Sorry for all the talk...lol. Good luck with your beautiful new baby.

Oh what a cutie pie! Bless you for rescuing her.

I can't free feed my boys because they are greedy beggars who tend to fat. If you look on your food of choice it will give you a measurement chart based on kitty's weight.

Whatever you do don't believe what he tells you! Kitties are known for gross exaggeration; especially when it comes to food. ??

Mine are free fed. They eat whenever they like. They will beg for snacks anytime!

While I allow my cats to "graze" which the vet says I shouldn't do (twice daily and pick up the food bowls). I feed mine a quarter of a can of food each (Pearl and Spot).

I feed mine a half can twice daily. I also put down a small amount of dry food to munch on in between. That might be too much food though as she looks kind of pregnant.
