Cat Food - Wellness for Your Cat

Cats can be fussy lovable creatures. One day precious puss will devour a jelly fish cat meal and the very next week that jelly cat meal wont be eaten and has to be thrown in the garbage. It could be that your moggy has been out on the prowl (cats are solitary hunters) and helped himself to his own freshly caught cat snack. Or maybe he has eaten more of his "help yourself cat crunchies" and dampened his appetite.

Don't give up on your feline critter. It is never too late to focus on your cat's food likes and dislikes. In summer some cats love their meals served chilled from the fridge and some prefer their tasty cat morsels at room temperature. Be careful of the lactose (sugar) in cream and milk. Many cats are unable to digest the lactose resulting in diarrhoea.

Some cats are very active and require more cat meals in smaller proportions throughout the 24 hour period to accommodate their hunting nature. Indoor cats with a lazier gut require less cat food. Kittens' digestive systems are still maturing and their dietary needs require constant monitoring.

Five Foods to Avoid Feeding Your Cat
· Onions
· Dog food
· Milk and other dairy products
· Mushrooms
· Chocolate

Follow your vet's cat nutritional advice and take time to tune into your own cat's food likes and dislikes. Be careful though, cats will take advantage of you offering different treats allowing puss to become a fussy eater. Be firm and don't allow them to demand treats on a regular basis.
