Read Time:\n3 MIN\nPlease keep in mind these recommendations are guidelines and can vary based on your cat's age, health, activity levels, and any other food they consume. Always check with your vet before changing your cat's diet for the most comprehensive advice tailored to your cat's unique needs.\nFeeding guidelines based on life stage\nAdult Cats:\nThe average adult cat typically consumes 20 kcal per pound daily. Each Smalls fresh food packet contains 200 kcal, which is the daily recommended serving for an average 10 lb cat, and can be easily split between two or more daily meals.\nFeeding guidelines:\nIf your cat is at their goal weight, feed your feline friend one 200kcal packet of Smalls fresh food daily for every 10 lbs of body weight. This should be split between two or more daily meals.\nKittens (under 12 months):\nGrowing kittens need more calories per pound than adult cats to fuel all that play and development. From 1–6 months, they need around 90–100 kcal per pound daily. From 6–12 months, that drops to about 45–54 kcal per pound as their growth starts to slow.\nFeeding guidelines:\nFeed up to 100 kcal per pound daily, depending on your kitten’s age and weight. We recommend weighing them weekly and adjusting portions as they grow. Kittens thrive on multiple small meals a day—aim for 3–4 (or more) to keep up with their high energy and fast metabolism.\nPregnant\/Nursing Cats:\nPregnant cats require 40-80 kcal per pound daily.\nNursing cats require 90-114 kcal per pound daily.\nFeeding guidelines\nPregnant cats may need up to 80 kcal per pound daily, while nursing cats can require as much as 114 kcal per pound to support their kittens. As the kittens begin to wean, those calorie needs will naturally go down. Split daily calories into two or more meals to keep mealtime manageable.\nWeight Loss:\nAdult cats looking to lose weight should get a recommended goal weight from their veterinarian, and all long term weight loss should be monitored by your vet.\nStart by understanding your cat’s current weight and what your cat would ideally weigh as specified by your veterinarian. Feed them 80% of the calories needed to achieve their ideal weight, as determined by their vet.\nA sudden drop in weight can be dangerous for cats, so it’s important to take things slow. Aim for a gradual loss of 0.5% to 2% of their current weight per week—small, steady changes are safest.\nWeigh your cat at the start of each week to check progress. If you’re on track, stick with it—if not, adjust as needed and keep going at a steady pace.\nFor best results, divide their daily portion into a few smaller meals spaced throughout the day—it’s easier on their digestion and keeps them satisfied.\nWeight Gain\n:\nUnderweight cats may have lost weight due to a health issue, so, it is important they be examined by your veterinarian to ensure they are healthy before changing diet strategy. Weight gain should be monitored by your veterinarian.\nStart by understanding your cat’s current weight and what your cat would ideally weigh as specified by your vet. Feed your cat the recommended daily calories for their ideal weight, rather than their current weight.\nFor best results, split the daily serving into multiple meals and feed throughout the day.\nFresh Frozen Feeding guidelines based on weight\n4lb cat ...................... 0.4 packet daily\n6lb cat ......................  2\/3 packet daily\n8lb cat ......................  1 packet daily\n10lb cat ......................  1 packet daily\n12lb cat ......................  1 1\/4 packet daily\n14lb cat ......................  1 1\/2 packet daily\nFreeze-Dried Feeding guidelines based on weight\n4lb cat ...................... 1\/2 cup daily\n6lb cat ......................  2\/3 cup daily\n8lb cat ......................  3\/4 cup per day\n10lb cat ......................  7\/8 cup daily\n12lb cat ......................  1 cup daily\n14lb cat ......................  1 1\/4 cup daily\nKitten Feeding Guidelines\nWeight lbs\nEnergy requirements \nIf <6 months old (90-100kcal\/lb\/d)\nPacks of Smalls (200kcal\/pk)\nEnergy requirement if 6-10 months old (45-54 kcal\/lb\/d)\nPacks of Smalls (200kcal\/pk)\n2\n180 - 200kcal\/d\n1 pk\/d\n-\n-\n3\n180-300 kcal\/d\n1.25 pk\/d\n-\n- \n4\n360-400 kcal\/d\n1.75 pk\/d\n180 - 216 kcal\/d\n1 pk\/d\n5\n450-500 kcal\/d\n2.25 pk\/d\n225 - 270 kcal\/d\n1.25 pk\/d\n6\n540-600 kcal\/d\n2.75 pk\/d\n270 - 324 kcal\/d\n1.5 pk\/d\n7\n-\n-\n315 - 378 kcal\/d\n1.5 pk\/d\n8\n-\n-\n360 - 432 kcal\/d\n2 pk\/d\n9\n-\n-\n405 - 486 kcal\/d\n2 pk\/d\n10\n-\n-\n 450-540 kcal\/d\n2.25 pk\/d\nNeed help building a specific feeding plan?

Readable Markdown	September 27 2025 1:19pm • Est. Read Time: 3 MIN Please keep in mind these recommendations are guidelines and can vary based on your cat's age, health, activity levels, and any other food they consume. Always check with your vet before changing your cat's diet for the most comprehensive advice tailored to your cat's unique needs. * ### Feeding guidelines based on life stage - Adult Cats: - The average adult cat typically consumes 20 kcal per pound daily. Each Smalls fresh food packet contains 200 kcal, which is the daily recommended serving for an average 10 lb cat, and can be easily split between two or more daily meals. - Feeding guidelines: If your cat is at their goal weight, feed your feline friend one 200kcal packet of Smalls fresh food daily for every 10 lbs of body weight. This should be split between two or more daily meals. - Kittens (under 12 months): - Growing kittens need more calories per pound than adult cats to fuel all that play and development. From 1–6 months, they need around 90–100 kcal per pound daily. From 6–12 months, that drops to about 45–54 kcal per pound as their growth starts to slow. - Feeding guidelines: Feed up to 100 kcal per pound daily, depending on your kitten’s age and weight. We recommend weighing them weekly and adjusting portions as they grow. Kittens thrive on multiple small meals a day—aim for 3–4 (or more) to keep up with their high energy and fast metabolism. - Pregnant/Nursing Cats: - Pregnant cats require 40-80 kcal per pound daily. - Nursing cats require 90-114 kcal per pound daily. - Feeding guidelines Pregnant cats may need up to 80 kcal per pound daily, while nursing cats can require as much as 114 kcal per pound to support their kittens. As the kittens begin to wean, those calorie needs will naturally go down. Split daily calories into two or more meals to keep mealtime manageable. - Weight Loss: - Adult cats looking to lose weight should get a recommended goal weight from their veterinarian, and all long term weight loss should be monitored by your vet. - Start by understanding your cat’s current weight and what your cat would ideally weigh as specified by your veterinarian. Feed them 80% of the calories needed to achieve their ideal weight, as determined by their vet. - A sudden drop in weight can be dangerous for cats, so it’s important to take things slow. Aim for a gradual loss of 0.5% to 2% of their current weight per week—small, steady changes are safest. - Weigh your cat at the start of each week to check progress.
