About 69 g per meal across 2 meals.
Energy density is printed on the label, often as "metabolisable energy" per 100 g or per cup. Wet food is far less energy dense than dry, so the same calorie target produces a very different weight of food.
Treats count. Keep everything outside the main diet under a tenth of the daily calories, and weigh food rather than using a scoop — scoops routinely overshoot by a quarter.
