Hey, I just want to know how often should i feed my 3 and 1 year old cats, I leave them the food 24/7 and I just restore it when its over, I took the cat weight test and both their weights are ideal.

Hello and welcome to Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. It sounds like what you are doing is perfect if their weight is ideal. It is fine to just leave food out 24/7. This might need to change if your cats become overweight. Best of luck with your little ones!
