What should be my cat’s weight?
A cat's ideal weight can vary depending on factors such as breed, age, and individual variation. However, there are general guidelines that can help you determine if your cat is at a healthy weight. One common method used to assess a cat's weight is by examining their body condition score (BCS). Here's a simplified way to assess your cat's weight: 1. Look at Your Cat's Body Shape: When you view your cat from the side, you should be able to see a slight waistline, meaning the area behind the ribs is narrower than the chest. When you look down on your cat from above, there should be a slight hourglass figure where the body tapers in a bit at the waist. When you run your hands over your cat's ribcage, you should be able to feel the ribs without pressing too hard. They should have a thin layer of fat covering them but not be overly prominent. 2. Consult with Your Veterinarian: Your veterinarian is the best source of information when it comes to assessing your cat
