Daily Feeding Guide

For adult cats: 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 using Prescription Diet Feline i/d® in a kitten, ask your veterinarian. Keep fresh water available at all times! 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. Split the recommended daily amount into smaller portions and feed throughout the day. Feline i/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 i/d canned, decrease the amount of dry food to avoid overfeeding.
