At KatKin, we currently provide 6 different portion sizes of our recipes
150kcal
200kcal
250kcal
300kcal
350kcal
400kcal.
We use 4 different pieces of information about your cat to determine what portion size they need:
Weight (in kg)
Age
Body Condition Score or BCS (skinny, just right, chubby, obese)
Activity level (inactive, active, explorer)
You can update these details in your account at any time. Making changes may mean our calorie calculator suggests a different portion size to the one your cat is currently on.
We won’t change your cat’s portion automatically, as it will change the price of your plan. This means the portion your cat receives is completely up to you. But, if your cat is eating just KatKin, we recommend following the calculator’s suggestion so your cat gets their ideal amount of daily calories.
KatKin is designed to give your cat the perfect amount of calories they need, in order to be their ideal weight. That means that if your cat needs to put on or lose weight (by selecting skinny, chubby or obese), keeping their details up to date ensures we won’t send too much or too little food.
If you’d like to check which portion a cat would need, before adding another cat to your account, you can enter their details here in our retail portion calculator.
How to see your cats recommended portion
Login to your KatKin account at Katkin.com/login
Click ‘Manage plans’
Navigate to ‘My Cats’ in the top bar
Select the cat whose portion you’d like to check
Scroll down to ‘daily calories’ and check the suggested amount.
Click ‘Change tray size’ if you’d like to adjust their portion
Select a new calorie amount and click ‘confirm’ to save changes
Please note! If we’ve taken a payment from you in the last 48 hours, any changes made won’t be reflected until your following delivery, as our cut off deadline will have passed.
Can I order multiple portion sizes in one box?
This is a good question, but no, unfortunately not. Our boxes have to be packed with just 1 tray size and they can’t be mixed.
If you have specific questions about portion sizes or feeding multiple cats, speak to our Cat Experts who can help work out the best plan for you.
Feeding large breeds
Lucky enough to own large breed such as a Maine Coon, Siberian, or Savannah? Our largest portion size might not be enough to cover their daily calories.
Our largest tray is 400kcal, but some larger cats need even more calories that what we offer.
We recommend entering their details here in our retail portion calculator to check how many calories they need per day.
If you’re feeding only KatKin, we may need to add a second plan to your account in order to send additional food for your cat. For example, one box of 400kcal and a second box of 200kcal (this will also mean you qualify for our 5% multicat discount).
