Cats should usually weigh around 6-10 pounds. If your cat is overweight, look on the bag of food you are feeding him/her. it'll say the weight range and how much food you should be giving it A DAY. My cat weighs 14 lbs. Whoops....

This heavily depends on how large your cat is. Some cats can be very large but are completely made of muscle, while others are very small and lithe creatures. Naturally, the weight of a cat depends on its size and shape.

One of the best ways to check your cat is at a healthy weight is to run your hands down your cat's sides. You should be able to feel the ribs under the skin, and the cat should have a slight, but visible, waist. You can feel for this as well. Of course, a vet should be able to weigh your cat and determine if it is a healthy weight as well.

The average weight for a cat should be 6-11 pounds. cats that are over that weight would be considered obese. Any smaller than five, it needs to eat more food
