I'm not sure how to stop your kitty from eating too fast, but beware of light cat food formulas. Often times, the calories seem to be reduced by adding fillers and low quality ingredients. I'd rather feed my kitty high quality food but just a little less.

Some people argue that the carbohydrates in dry cat food aggravate obesity problems in cats. Maybe adding some canned food (generally higher in protein) to his diet would help.

My cat that tends to vomit after eating does so less frequently when he is fed hairball control food. That might be worth a try.

Kate
