About PetYardstick

Free calculators for dog and cat owners, with every formula and source shown.

What it does

PetYardstick is being built as a free set of calculators for pet owners: daily food and calories for dogs and cats, dog and cat pregnancy calendars, and age in human years. Every result shows the formula and the veterinary source it comes from, in pounds and kilograms. Sections for more animals follow later.

The worked dog-calorie example on the home page is live today. The calculators are being built; the site opened early so search engines can find it.

Where the numbers come from

Each page names the veterinary reference it used and the date we read it: for feeding, the WSAVA Global Nutrition Committee charts and the 2006 National Research Council nutrient requirements; for pregnancy, the Merck Veterinary Manual. Tables are computed from the formulas. The results are a starting point to discuss with your vet, never a substitute for one.
