Should You Leave Your Cat’s Food Out All Day?

Saturday, October 5, 2013
posted by Jim Murphy

cute kitty eatingAlways feed your cats on a set schedule. An example would be as soon as you get up in the morning and again at dinner time. Some vets will say that if you leave the food out, your cat will become obese and could develop diabetes. I have a different take on this issue. yes, it’s true that if your cat is indoors and eats too much, it could get obese. I feed my cats twice per day. I leave their food out but I limit the amount of food left out. Generally, I leave them about one cup of food. I also buy food for indoor cats which has less calories. I believe that cats are “nibblers.” They eat very small amounts at a time. This is the reason that I think it’s better to leave their food out so they could eat several times per day. Taking it away just like you would do for a dog just doesn’t make sense to me. So this time, I disagree with most of the vets.

Remember, your pets count!
