Hi - I am feeding stray cat(5 months old) 4 eggs(boiled) split between day and night for the last 20 days. Initially rice with eggs, but they stopped eating rice hence continuing with eggs.. I will be capturing them and post vaccination putting them for adoption to be raised as indoor cats post which I will regulate their diet. But till then, is 4 eggs a day/cat ok? Also can you please help with a link or direction as to what is the ideal diet for an adult cat? Thanks

The ideal diet for an adult cat is a balanced commercial cat food. I would purchase one and start offering it as feeding four eggs a day is not a balanced diet and likely not enough nutrition or calories for a cat to sustain itself. You can check out [this link](https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/category/cat/cat-food/dry-cat-food) for some good examples of balanced cat foods to start offering.
