I don't really have any experience with this, Bandit is almost too thin even though he's healthy now and has had multiple fecals done to rule out paracites. He's a picky eater but will eat a little less than 1/4 cup kibble a day. When he gets an egg or raw he gobbles it up though! Nala is a "healthy" weight now although she looks like a porker compared to Bandit (1 pound weight difference at the same height 5 pounds and 6 pounds lol) and the vet did say we may need to be careful in her future about free feeding, but she's still considered lean and she is super active. I would rather schedule feed but Bandit REFUSES to eat at those times and I give in when he doesn't eat.
