Each food has a different daily requirement, so I would follow the feeding instructions on the bag of food and can of wet food to see what she should be getting. Purina is a great brand of food, I would definitely keep her on that, and switch her to an adult dry food when she is a year old. Other brands I recommend include Royal Canin, Hill's Science Diet, Purina ProPlan, and Iams. I hope this helps!
