How Often Should Cats Eat?<\/h1>\n

Cat<\/a>s are prey animals. That means, they eat for the sake of eating.<\/p>\n

They get satisfaction from killing and eating other animals, or from consuming animal tissues and hair. That is how they survive in the wild.<\/p>\n

\"How\r\n\r\n<\/p>\n

But it is a fact that some cats do not get satisfied from this natural instinct.<\/p>\n

Many cats become overweight and suffer from chronic diseases as a result.<\/p>\n

They begin to develop various disorders that have the potential to kill them.<\/p>\n

That is why it is important to keep an eye on how often they eat. This will prevent them from suffering from nutritional deficiency and may even lead to serious medical conditions like diabetes.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Every one wants to prevent obesity but for that to happen<\/a>, you need to know when your cat should overindulge.<\/p>\n

If your cat eats at least three times per day, he is definitely overindulging<\/a>.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, if he only eats two meals a day, he is showing signs of being underfed. By the time he has been eating less than half, he needs to be monitored very closely.<\/p>\n

Let us say that your cat eats huge amounts of food without being able to tell you when he needs to be fed<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This is the most dangerous condition.<\/p>\n
