I love Acana - I think their Classic formulas are great but unfortunately, you can't get them in the USA (are you in Canada?) The only ones available in the US are chicken & burbank potato, and then the Singles line (Duck & Pear and Lamb & Apple).

Jackson does fantastic on the Singles line. It's bit less protein and a tad less fat than the grain-frees, but it still has the same amount of calories.

How many calories does Light & Fit have?

FWIW, 1/2 cup of food is probably fine for him. Just because he eats it fast, doesn't mean he needs more! lol. Jackson eats 2/3 cup of food per day and he's 16lbs and very active. I will up it to 3/4 if he's had a lot of exercise for the day or seems super hungry, and just keep an eye on his body condition.
