What this means for the bowl
Sheba Fresh & Fine MSC Fish in Gravy sits in the middle of the 20 wet cat foods we track, at 770 kcal per kg.
To show how much the food matters: a 4.5 kg spayed or neutered cat needs about 260 kcal a day. That is 6 ¾ × 50 g pouch of this food, but 3 ¼ × 85 g pouch of Purina Pro Plan Sterilised Beef and Chicken in Gravy and 4 ½ × 85 g pouch of Sheba Fine Flakes Poultry in Jelly. Same cat, same day, very different bowls.
Wet food is mostly water. Gram for gram, the average dry cat food in our list has about 5.1 times the calories of this one, which is why the wet portion looks so much bigger.
