Healthy Weight & Calorie Calculator
Estimate your pet's goal weight, daily calories, and how much to feed to get there safely. Enter a current weight and body condition score, then pick a diet. It works the same for dogs and cats.
i For information only: this is a planning estimate, not a diagnosis, and your veterinarian will confirm your pet's body condition and set the final feeding plan.
- 1 Goal weight from current weight + body condition score
- 2 Daily calories to reach that goal weight
- 3 Cups per day for your chosen food

This calculator gives a planning estimate only and is not a diagnosis or a substitute for veterinary advice. Calorie and portion needs vary with age, breed, spay/neuter status, activity, and medical conditions. Body condition scoring is subjective, so we'll confirm your pet's score in person.
Weight loss should be supervised. Cats in particular must lose weight slowly; rapid loss or fasting can cause a dangerous liver condition (hepatic lipidosis). We'll set a safe rate, recheck the weight, and adjust the plan along the way. Introduce any new food gradually, always provide fresh water, and recalculate as the weight changes.
Calories per cup come from each manufacturer and can change with reformulation. Book a weight-management visit or call (914) 962-5579 and we'll build a plan tailored to your pet.
