#NationalPetObesityAwarnessDay is next week. In 2018, an estimated 60% of cats and 56% of dogs in the United States were overweight or obese. What’s the biggest question you should ask your vet to control this issue? HOW MANY CALORIES SHOULD I FEED MY PET EACH DAY? Your vet should then ask you a few lifestyle questions, perform a couple of calculations, and give you a narrow range of calories. Find out how many cups or cans of your pet food this equals. Feed that amount. Don't forget to include any treats in your daily caloric counts.
