Dobby is very cute! Most 9 month of cats should be eating approximately 3/4 to 1 cup of cat food a day. If you add in a snack of canned food then I would do less dry. Most cats at this age weigh around 7-8 pounds. As full grown adults most average cats weight around 10 pounds. Of course, this varies depending on the cat and the body frame. If you google "cat body condition chart" you should get several different charts to show you how to tell if your cat is the correct size. From the pictures, he is looking great! I hope this helps!
