Pet's info: Cat | Russian Blue | Female | spayed | 4 months and 9 days old
I just adopted a Russian Blue 4 month old cat. the person told me to feed her once a day wet food at the same time everyday and leave out dry food for her to pick on. That doesn't sound too right.

Hello. That actually does not sound too unusual. You can certainly offer her the canned twice daily ( my house kitty gets a spoonful morning & evening ), & then he is free to pick at the dry all day. MOST cats are good at self regulating & will not eat too much to become obese, but this is something to watch for as Aspen grows older. It is very much an individual thing, but for now Aspen can be free to eat when he wants to. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
