For a 20 lb. dog, 1 small oatmeal cookie is the caloric equivalent of 1 hamburger or 1 entire chocolate bar for a person. If a 10 lb. cat ate 1 ounce of cheddar cheese, it would be the same as if a person ate 3-1/2 hamburgers or 4 whole chocolate bars. For a 20 lb. dog, eating 1 hot dog is the same as a person consuming 3 entire hamburgers or 2 whole chocolate bars. Just 1 potato chip for a 10 lb. cat is the caloric equivalent of 1/2 of a hamburger or 1/2 of a chocolate bar for a person. One ounce of cheddar cheese for a 20 lb. dog has the same number of calories as 2-1/2 hamburgers or 1-1/2 chocolate bars do for a person. For a 10 lb. cat, 1 cup of milk has the same number calories as 4-1/2 hamburgers or 5 chocolate bars do for a person. |
