Cats and Kittens

Nicnac asked:


I have a big family with lots of kids and little kids. Ages 2-18. And some adults too. I’m one of the kids. We have two dogs and we are getting a cat today. The cat was found by a family as a stray and now we are adopting her from that family. We believe the cat is deaf. She is about 5 years old.
We took the cat home for about an hour a few days ago and the cat pretty much spent the whole time hiding. The dogs and the kids did pretty good.
Can we have some advice on how to introduce the cat to the house and everyone and how to introduce the kids to the cat?

I have 2 cats. They are both overweight. We feed them Purina Naturals or something like that. We want the best, dry cat food designed specifically for overweight cats. They are adults, 5 and 9 years old. We feed them 1/3 of a cup twice a day, once in the morning, and once at night. We give them snacks throughout the day as well. I think we are feeding them too much. What do you think?

•How much food do they need each day?
•And how many times to they need to be fed that amount?
