Daily Feeding Guide
These ranges are a starting point only. Your pet may need less or more food to maintain proper weight. Adjust as needed. If you are unsure ask your veterinarian.
Keep fresh water available at all times!
With your veterinarian's approval, mix increasing amounts of your pet's new food with decreasing amounts of the old food over a 7-day period.
c/d® Feline is available in canned and dry. Supplementation with other foods is unnecessary and may decrease the effectiveness of the food. When using with c/d® Feline canned, decrease the amount of dry food to avoid overfeeding.
