There are some cat breeds that naturally have a larger physique or long hair, making it difficult to determine their actual weight. You can weigh the cat at home, but if you're unsure about your pet cat's condition, it's best to take it to a veterinarian. In addition to calculating its ideal weight, consult the veterinarian about the causes of weight gain, such as symptoms of illness or a high appetite.

Change its eating pattern

Cats are pets that are fond of eating only one type of food. It's no wonder that any changes in their eating pattern can cause stress.

The solution is to make gradual changes over a period of about 2 weeks. Start by stopping all snacks and make sure all residents of the house follow these new rules. If you have multiple pets, separate overweight cats to prevent them from stealing leftover food.

Divide the portions smaller

Your cat starts meowing next to its food bowl, showing that it is hungry and asking for its share of food. Try dividing the food into smaller portions and feed more frequently to help the cat overcome its hunger. Make sure to note what and how much it is eating, according to the doctor's recommendation to reduce its daily calorie intake.

Don't let the cat go hungry

Letting the cat go hungry in order to quickly lose weight is not the right way, as it can actually trigger serious health problems. Reducing food intake by more than 10-15% will cause the cat to lose balance between essential minerals and vitamins. Due to food restriction, your pet is at risk of experiencing health problems such as hepatic lipidosis.

Although reducing its food portion, there's no need to worry that the cat will lose all essential nutrients it needs. Give Muezza which contains protein, minerals, fatty acids, vitamins, and carbohydrates in a balanced amount.
