Default how many meals?

The problem with dry food is that it isn't "spoiling" them. *Cats should not
have carbs. *There is a much higher incidence of diabetes and other health
problems in cats that are fed dry food.


My cats prefer the canned food that they get for meals.
The dry food is for between-meal munchies when they
want something more, especially during the long 12-hour
stretch between supper and breakfast.

What I meant by spoiling them is having three meals
a day plus 'elevensies'.
