Daily Feeding Guide

These ranges are a starting point only. Your pet may need less or more food to maintain proper weight. Adjust as needed. If you are unsure, or if you are not using Feline w/d® for obesity prevention, ask your veterinarian. With your veterinarian’s approval, mix increasing amounts of your pet’s new food with decreasing amounts of the old food over a 7-day period. Feline w/d® is available in canned and dry. Supplementation with other foods is unnecessary and may decrease the effectiveness of the food. When using with Feline w/d canned, decrease the amount of dry food to avoid overfeeding.
