Cat Food Portion Calculator
Figure out how much to feed your cat by pairing the daily calories your cat needs with the calorie content of the food. Cat food labels give a kcal per can or a kcal per cup value, and dividing your cat daily energy requirement by that density gives the amount to serve. This tool takes your cat daily calories and the food energy per unit, then returns units per day and the amount per meal if you feed more than once. Because cats gain weight easily, measuring rather than free feeding helps keep portions honest and prevents the slow creep that leads to obesity. Enter your numbers and adjust as your cat body condition changes. Everything runs locally in your browser. This is general information, not veterinary advice, so follow the food label and your vet for medical or weight plans.

Frequently asked questions
How is the feeding amount calculated?
It divides your cat daily calorie need by the food energy per can or per cup, producing the number of cans or cups to feed each day.
Can I mix wet and dry food?
Enter the calories for whichever food you are portioning. For a mix, split the daily calorie target between the two foods and run the calculation for each.
Why is calories per can more accurate than grams?
Cans and cups vary in food density, so matching your cat calorie target to the labelled kcal per can removes guesswork that weight alone can miss.
