Calculator inputs and results

Dry food

Uses remaining mass and actual daily portions.

Per product

Total stock 3 kg

Enter the product amount and quantity you have. For an opened product, use the remaining fraction, such as 0.5.

Daily portion for each pet
g

This does not recommend a portion. Enter the actual amount from the package or a plan agreed with a professional.

Cost settings (optional)

Enter the price of one product, such as one bag of food. Leave it blank to check only how long supplies last.

Price input unit

Calculation result

Enter your stock and usage, then select Check result.

Formula and assumptions

The result estimates how many days of dry food you have left, not how long it stays fresh or how much a cat should eat. If you also feed wet food, reflect that in the average daily dry-food amount.

Multiply the amount per product by the quantity you have to find total stock. Add daily dry-food grams entered for each cat, then divide total stock grams by the combined daily feeding grams.

Why the result can vary

Wet-to-dry ratio, cats taking each other's food, selective eating, feeder dispensing error, growth, and health changes alter actual use.

Example

How long will a 4kg bag last for two cats?

Inputs: 4kg dry food, first cat 55g/day, second cat 45g/day

Outcome: At 100g per day, the bag lasts about 40 days.

Cautions

  • Stock duration does not determine an appropriate feeding amount for a cat.
  • Check manufacturer guidance for storage and quality after opening.

Frequently asked questions

What if I feed both wet and dry food?

Enter only actual daily dry-food grams here. Average in the reduction on wet-food days and track wet stock separately.

Can I enter one automatic-feeder ‘portion’?

Feeder outputs differ. Weigh several dispenses, find the average grams per portion, and convert it to daily grams.

What if cats eat from each other's bowls?

Total stock may still fall similarly, but individual intake is unknown. This result is for inventory, not individual feeding control.

How long does a 2kg bag of cat food last?

A 2kg bag contains 2,000g. For example, a combined actual serving of 50g per day lasts 40 days. Add each cat's daily serving when several cats share the food.

Can I check food remaining and monthly costs together?

Yes. Enter an opened bag as a fraction, such as 0.5 products remaining. Add the price of one bag to calculate monthly consumption costs too.

Cat food bag duration calculator guide

Use the weight per bag, the bags remaining and each cat's daily dry-food portion to estimate how many days the food will last. Different portions can be entered separately for a multi-cat home.

  • Total stock is bag size multiplied by bags owned. Enter an opened bag as a fraction, and avoid counting food inside the feeder twice.
  • Enter each cat's actual daily dry-food grams, allowing for wet-food meals. Weigh an automatic feeder portion rather than assuming its mass.
