Unless a cat has a health problem (such as being overweight), just let him or her eat when he or she wants.
(My first cat ate whenever he wanted without ever getting fat. My second cat was old, sickly, and thin when I got him; I was grateful when he would eat.)
No, that's a remarkably stupid misreading.So what you're saying is, let 99% of cats become overweight and THEN worry about it? What terrible advice.
What's wrong here is your attempt to read between the lines.Now if you're ONLY talking about cats that freely go outdoors, then you're less wrong.
I'm not reading between any lines, I've had 9 cats and all the ones that didn't run around outside spending all that energy would eat themselves fat if you let them.No, that's a remarkably stupid misreading.

Exactly because you're incompetently trying to read between the lines you think that your experience contradicts anything that I previously wrote.I'm not reading between any lines, I've had 9 cats and all the ones that didn't run around outside spending all that energy would eat themselves fat if you let them.
