My 10lb cat is always hungry and meowing. Is he getting enough food?

Question

My cat is approximately 10 lbs. And I feed him half of a six ounce can of wet food, in the morning and at night and 1/4 cup of dry food during the daytime. However it never seems to be enough for him. He's almost always meowing at me and pawing at his empty bowl after its gone. Is there something wrong with him?

Wet food has a higher moisture content, so it takes more of it to get the needed calories to feed your cat. It may be that Simba isn't getting enough food, and that's why he's always hungry. I would feed him dry food only according to the package instructions on his food bag and see if that helps satisfy his hunger.
