[quote=Anonymous]A vet that I just heard speak talked about this and he distinguished between cats who ate to live vs. lived to eat. In the former situation, it was ok to free feed. In the latter, he recommended supervised feedings at specific times to control for weight, dietary restrictions, etc. He also stated his strong preference for a more wet food based diet (or even better a homemade/raw food diet) vs. kibble. In your case, maybe try a limited amount of kibble during the day and give a "breakfast" and "dinner" of wet food. For male cats, specifically, they really need a lot of "wet" in their diet to ward of UTI issues.[/quote]
