Needs
Indoor cat: 40-50 kcal/kg/day। 4 kg cat: ~200 kcal। Dry: 50-60g। Wet: 200g। Whiskas: ₹100-200/pack। Me-O: ₹80-150। Royal Canin: ₹200-400। 60% Indian cats overweight — measure, do not guess!
Wet Food Important
Cats need moisture — dry food alone causes urinary issues (most common cat disease)। Mix wet + dry। Fresh water always available — cats are naturally poor drinkers।
⚡ CalcWolf Insight
Cats are obligate carnivores — they require animal protein and cannot thrive on plant-based diets. Look for foods where the first 2-3 ingredients are named animal proteins (chicken, turkey, salmon), not grains or by-products. Protein should be 30%+ of the food by weight.
