Problems
of Feeding Your Cat Dry Food Diet
|
Too many people feed
their cats on a diet of dried food, and in particular
biscuits and nibbles because they are convenient and
they know that their cats generally like to eat them.
While this might be easy, convenient and a relatively
economical way to feed the cat it is certainly not
good for it's health.
Most dry foods are nutritionally deficient
no matter what the manufacturers might say, and contrary
to the list of nutrients that they list on the back
of these packs the best diet that you can give your
cat is one that most closely resembles the type of
food that they would eat in the wild.

The food that the cat eats in the wild is considerably
higher in protein than any of the dry foods on the market.
Another problem with dry food is the lack of moisture in
the food and it is necessary for the cat to get a sufficient
supply of fresh water at any time and in particular when
eating these types of dried food diets.
While there are formulations for young and old cats, fur
ball formulas, and many of the different combinations that
are supposed to boost health of your pet, a diet high in
fresh meat, fish and poultry, we'll do a lot more for your
cat health than any of these processed foods.
There are some high quality tinned cat foods on the market
that have both high protein and sufficient moisture to keep
your cat healthy.
Once again you need to consider the ingredients that are
put into these tinned cat
foods as some of them are still quite high in carbohydrates
which can cause your cat to become diabetic due to the imbalance.
There are also a lot of byproducts used in pet foods and
some of these are not very high in nutritional value.
Many cat foods also contain wheat products, garlic and
onion, corn and other ingredients that are not only wrong
for your cat, but they can cause it to become quite sick.
Good
nutrition for your cat is as important as offering it
a safe environment to ensure that you will have the pleasure
of enjoying it for many years.
