Well according to the vets all my kitties are overweight,Ash is 6.7kg,(he is a large built cat,) Lexie 5.3 Ellie 4.4 and Nikki 4.3 i knew Ash and Lexie were, Lexie could loose a kg thats around 2.2 pounds and Ash as well, maybe more, but my two newbies are also now, but only by a few grams,they were very thin when i rescued them,anyhow they are all on controlled portions now and sometimes i give them a little bit more if they appear hungry, because just like we humans they have hungry days too.

However according to the vet and what it says on their biscuits feeding allocation they are only to get 60grms a day to loose weight, and 75 if they are already just right, that is only like quarter of a cup, however i give Ellie and Ash wet food a small amount in the morning then quarter of a cup of biscuits, lexie has her special diet of 60grms a day, but she does sneak bits and pieces,which she is not allowed,but not too much, and then Ash usually gets a small amount of fresh chicken mince on top of his allowance as he is a larger cat than the girls and he loves his fresh meat,so far they seemed to have maintained their weight, although Lexie has lost some but mainly that was because she was not eating her new biscuits,so i guess i am still overfeeding them, but honestly i dont want to cut down anymore , i think i will keep at it and hope for the best, and see a weight reduction soon.
