Article SummaryX To care for your overweight cat, ask your vet for a weight loss plan that helps your cat gradually lose weight while remaining healthy, since sudden weight loss can cause medical issues. When you feed your cat at home, give it 2 to 4 small meals a day so you can control portion sizes and monitor how much it eats. If you’re not at home most of the day, buy a timed feeder from your pet store which releases food at designated times. In addition to controlling your cat’s portions, you can schedule 3 daily play sessions to keep it active. During the play sessions, encourage your cat to move around by shining a laser pointer on the ground so it chases it. For more advice from our Veterinary co-author, including how to create a schedule to monitor your cat’s weight loss, keep reading!
