I suggest not feeding more than 2 tablespoons per day. If any.

Hah, that's alot. No wander my cat's such a porker.

Not trying to hijack, but my mom just upgraded the food bowl


*3lb kitten for comparison. say hi to franklin! my foster.

She refills it to nearly the top every morning, against my wishes.

Someone call her and please explain to her that she's going to kill my damn cat if she keeps over feeding her like this. The cats nearly 16 pounds and not even 2 years yet! Her brother has got a bigger frame then her and is 14 pounds, her sister is 8lbs and her mom is 9lbs.
