Cat & Dog Food Calories Calculator

🐾 Dog & Cat Calories Calculator – Free Online Feeding Guide

Feeding pets the right amount of food is one of the most important steps in keeping them healthy, active, and at a proper weight. Overfeeding can lead to obesity, diabetes, and joint problems, while underfeeding may cause malnutrition, low energy, and poor growth. Our free Dog & Cat Calories Calculator makes it easy to estimate how many calories your pet needs each day and convert those calories into cups and grams of food.

This modern calculator is based on veterinary formulas for Resting Energy Requirement (RER) and Maintenance Energy Requirement (MER). By selecting your pet type (dog or cat), entering their weight (kg or lbs), life stage, neuter/spay status, activity level, and feeding goal (maintain, lose, or gain weight), you’ll instantly get a science-based estimate of your pet’s daily calorie needs. The tool also allows you to enter the calorie content of your food (kcal per cup or per kilogram), so you can see exactly how much to feed in grams, cups, and per meal portions.
