Where these numbers come from

RER = 70 × weight (kg)⁰·⁷⁵. Daily energy MER = RER × life-stage factor × activity × body condition. Grams per day = daily energy ÷ kcal per 100 g × 100, rounded to the nearest 5 g.

Life stage	Dog	Cat
Young pet · 2–4 months	× 3	× 2.5
Young pet · 4–12 months	× 2	× 2
Adult · neutered	× 1.6	× 1.2
Adult · intact	× 1.8	× 1.4
Dog: Senior · 7 years and over, earlier in large breeds Cat: Mature adult and senior · 7 years and over	× 1.4	× 1.2

These are starting estimates, not universal requirements. Activity and body-condition adjustments are ±10% model settings. Individual needs vary; senior age alone does not determine energy needs.
