Not as ravenous as usual

VioletBliss

So, my beast seems to be slowing down in the chow department. A usual day consists of 1 1/2-2 c dry food in the am, same at dinner time, an egg and banana in the morning, minimal daytime snacks. My question is, now that she's an "adult", she doesn't seem as hungry...should I change her food amount since she's a year old now? She's neither underweight or chunky at all.

If you want her to be excited about her food you need to add some excitements to it.../ ... about 3/4 cup of kibble with raw or cooked meat instead of 90% kibble will motivate her.... for sure... but make the transition slowly.

VioletBliss

But do I need to motivate her to eat more? She doesn't look thin at all. How much meat?

philsergeant

About 3/4 cup a day

VioletBliss

Thank you both for the advice, I take it seriously! You both have gorgeous babies!

Wow I am thinking we need to be feeding Swiss more. We feed her 3/4 cup in am and pm.

She's beautiful! Violet is just a piggie.
