Cat Calorie Calculator

Estimate your cat daily calorie needs with the resting energy and maintenance energy method used in feline nutrition. The tool computes resting energy requirement as seventy times body weight in kilograms raised to the power of 0.75, then multiplies by a factor chosen for your cat, since a neutered indoor cat needs far fewer calories than an active intact cat, a growing kitten, or a cat on a supervised weight loss plan. Enter the weight in kilograms or pounds and select the closest life stage to see both the resting figure and the adjusted maintenance figure in calories per day. Cats are prone to obesity, so portioning to a sensible target and monitoring body condition matters. This runs entirely in your browser and is general information only, not veterinary advice, so confirm targets and any weight loss plan with your vet.
