Frequently asked questions

What is Raw Feeding Calculator?

Daily raw amount from a body-weight %, split into muscle meat, bone, liver and other organ.

When would I actually use this?

Day-to-day care: how much to feed at a given weight, whether a size is right for the breed, and what a life stage means in human terms.

What is the most common mistake?

Using the seven-years rule for a dog's age. Ageing is fast in the first two years and then slows, and it slows much more for a small breed than for a large one — the multiplier is not a constant.

Is there a tool for the next step?

Aquarium Substrate Calculator is the closest one after this: Work out how much gravel, sand or aqua soil your tank needs from its shape, footprint and the substrate depth you want.

What else is worth having open alongside it?

Bird Cage Size Calculator and Cat Calorie Calculator — they come up in the same task often enough to be worth a second tab.

Where do the figures come from?

Portions follow published feeding guidelines by species and weight; age equivalences use the size-dependent curves rather than a flat multiplier. None of this replaces a veterinarian, especially for an animal that is unwell.

ExplainerHow Much Chocolate Is Toxic to Dogs? Dose by Type and Body WeightCall a vet first, then read this. Toxicity depends on the theobromine dose in milligrams per kilogram of dog: dark chocolate is nearly three times worse than milk chocolate by weight, baking chocolate seven times and dry cocoa powder thirteen times. Here is the table by type and dog weight.How-ton + 1 Litter Boxes, and What the Litter Actually CostsTwo cats need three boxes, not two, and each should be one and a half body lengths long — 69 cm for an average adult. The litter figure that follows is larger than most people expect, and knowing why is the useful part.ExplainerHow Many Calories Should a Cat Eat? The Arithmetic, and Where It StopsResting energy scales with weight to the power 0.75, not linearly, which is why a chart that doubles the food for a cat twice the weight is 83 kcal a day over. Neutered against intact, indoor against outdoor, and the boundary the arithmetic must not cross.ExplainerHow Big Will This Puppy Get? The Size Class DecidesThe same 12.7 kg puppy at sixteen weeks predicts a 21.9 kg adult if it is a small breed and 38.5 kg if it is a giant one. The arithmetic is trivial; the class you pick is worth seventy-six per cent.How-toThe IATA Crate Formula an Airline Measures at Check-InLength A + half B, width twice C, height D. The width rule is the one that fails people: a dog with 28 cm shoulders needs 56 cm of interior width, and no crate sold by weight rating tells you that.How-toHow Much Substrate Does an Aquarium Need? Depth, Weight and Grain SizeThe depth follows the job: a bare display, a planted tank whose roots need room, an under-gravel plate. Then comes the number people are unprepared for — substrate is what puts a filled tank past what a piece of furniture can hold. Plus why fine sand compacts and coarse gravel traps waste.
