feeding schedule
When to eat
A feeding schedule is a planned timetable for when meals or nourishment are given, most commonly used with infants, pets, or livestock.
Parents track feeding schedules to establish routines for newborns, while pet owners follow them to maintain consistent mealtimes.
The term also appears in agriculture and animal husbandry, where precise feeding schedules optimize growth and health.
The vet recommended a strict feeding schedule for the diabetic cat.
