Estimated Monthly Cost
By your cat's weight, using an estimated daily amount and the cheapest bag. Your cat may eat more or less.
We could not find the maker's feeding chart. These amounts come from a general formula: the calories on the label (3,890 kcal/kg) and the daily energy a cat of that weight needs according to the Merck Veterinary Manual, using the figure for a neutered adult. The chart on the bag may say something different.
