Is your cat healthy?


by Finn Jensen

Cats, we love them. But do you know everything there is to know about your cats health? I guess not; if you are like most people you buy what food you think is best for your cat - but you should gain more knowledge; for your cats sake!Cats keep a reputation for being difficult eaters, but that is most often a distortion of the truth. Cats have an extremely keen sense of taste and smell, and they know what they like. If you have fed your cat the selfsame food for years, then switch brands, she may refuse the new menu. If you have to change her food, do it over time, mixing just a bit of the new food with plenty of the old favorite. Slowly increase the amount of new food and reduce the old. Cats are creatures of habit. Your feline friend will feel more calm and at ease if you feed her at the selfsame time each day. If more than one cat shares your house, be sure that each has a food and water bowl of its own.You can snatch the uncomplicated option and toss some discount cat feed into a bowl for your feline companion, but will she stay your friend for long if you do not deliver a bit more thought into what you feed her? Here is some guidance that will have her purring with delight at feeding time, and maintain her healthy at the same time. In order to maintain your cat or kitten healthy, you need to select quality foods that will supply him with the nutrients he needs. But, what are they? You can not just present your cat any kind of food that is convenient. There are a few things you should do to better your cat's nutrition.Leave a bowl of dry kibble out for your cat to snack on throughout the day; the crunchy food helps clean her teeth. If you do feed "wet" food, make it available for about 30 minutes, and throw away the uneaten portion. This teaches your cat to "get it while the getting is good." Never leave canned food in a dish all day long; it attracts ants, cockroaches, and creates a bad habit in your cat. In addition to a bowl of dry kibble, make sure your cat has plenty of fresh water in a clean bowl. If your home is large, or has multiple levels, consider putting out more than one water bowl so that she always has access to water and won't need to try quenching her thirst via an "unsafe" supply. Most people know that cats are carnivores, or meat eaters, and are puzzled when their cats begin eating houseplants. This could be dangerous - some plants are toxic. A plant-snacking cat may be trying to get required minerals that might be lacking from the commercial food she eats.
