## Description

The Pet Daily Food Calculator handles the heavy lifting of dog nutrition science so you don't have to. If you've ever stared at the back of a dog food bag trying to do the math on cups per pound while worrying about your pup's weight, this Connector is for you. It takes the guesswork out of the bowl by providing clear, actionable numbers based on your dog's actual biology. You can tell your AI client about your dog's current life stage and how much they move during the day, and it will give you the numbers you actually need. It calculates the baseline energy requirements and then translates those calories into the specific weight of food you should be scooping out. It even helps you figure out how many times a day they should eat to keep their energy steady. Getting these details right is a huge part of keeping your dog healthy, and using this Connector through the Vinkius catalog makes it way easier to stay on track. It takes the math off your plate and puts the focus back on your pet.

## Tools

### estimate_daily_kcal_requirement
Finds out how many calories your dog needs every day based on their body stats. This helps you set a baseline for their health.

### generate_meal_schedule
Tells you how many meals to give and at what times to keep your dog's energy stable. This helps with consistent digestion.

### calculate_daily_gram_intake
Turns those calories into a specific weight in grams based on your food's density. It removes the need to guess scoop sizes.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
My 15kg dog is very active. How many calories does he need?
```

**Response:** 
```
Based on a weight of 15kg and a high activity level, your dog needs approximately **750 to 850 kcal** per day.

## Capabilities

### Get daily calorie needs
Find out exactly how many calories your dog requires based on their current weight and life stage.

### Convert calories to grams
Turn a calorie goal into a specific gram weight based on your specific brand of food.

### Create a feeding schedule
Determine the best number of meals per day to keep your dog's energy levels stable.

### Adjust for activity levels
Modify the daily food amount based on how active or sedentary your dog is.

### Support puppy growth
Calculate higher caloric needs for growing puppies to ensure they get enough fuel.

## Use Cases

### Managing puppy growth spurts
A new owner wants to know if their high-energy puppy is getting enough calories for a growth spurt. The agent uses `estimate_daily_kcal_requirement` to find the number.

### Weight loss for senior dogs
An owner needs to cut calories for a 10-year-old dog who isn't moving much anymore. The agent calculates the new gram amount using `calculate_daily_gram_intake`.

### Switching to a new food brand
Someone moved to a new premium brand and needs to know the new gram amount for their 30kg dog. The agent calculates the density and provides the new daily total.

### Creating a pet sitting guide
A sitter needs a clear 3-meal schedule for a guest dog with specific dietary needs. The agent uses `generate_meal_schedule` to build the plan.

## Benefits
