I have about seventy pounds of cats who eat "CD Dry", a similar product. I use a "regular" cat-food can -- tuna-fish-can size -- as a scoop. A grand total of two such scoops per day -- leveled off precisely -- feeds the aforementioned felines adequately. These prepared diets are very rich, and a little goes a long, long way. (My seventy pounds of cats count out at six, except when they are playing when I am trying to sleep. Then it's more like fifty of them.) -- Jay Reynolds Freeman (Schlumberger Palo Alto Research)(canonical disclaimer)
