Feeding a Burmese: the honest notes

🐾

Burmese are unusually dense (lots of muscle) — the scale reads high while the cat is lean. Track trends and body condition.

🐾

Famously food-obsessed: they will act starving at every meal. Measured portions are essential, not optional.

🐾

Playful well into adulthood — daily play is their best weight-management tool.

These are breed tendencies, not a prescription. For the actual amount, the calculator uses your pet's real body weight and life stage — the same veterinary formula vets use.
