I *think* that was what was suggested for a 4kg cat...
Thanks for that. They are only small cats haven't been weighed for a while but I'd say no more than 3kg each maybe 2.5kg each. Will try them with some mince tomorrow maybe, just need to decide on what biscuits. I'd look online but my laptop has decided to die and it's too much hassle on my phone.

OK. I just checked with the dried food I've in, and it was something quite a bit less than 40g for a 2.5 KG cat - say about 25g? But if you get a better quality dry food (which may well mean you need to feed less of it) then the packet it comes in will tell you how much you need to feed for the amount of wet you feed them...
