Expert-Approved Tips For Feeding Your Cat

Feeding your cat should be a breeze. Provide your cat with premium quality and brand-name kitten or cat food. You should also consider the age, activity level, and health status of your pet when choosing and giving food.

Here are some reminders about feeding pet cats:

       Taurine is essential for cats; it promotes a healthy eye and heart. Choose the appropriate food for your kitty’s life stage. A properly balanced meal should contain taurine which your cat needs.

       Provide clean and fresh water all the time, refill her bowl regularly. You should also wash the water bowl daily.

       Limit cat treats to 5-10% of their diet.

       Be careful in giving cat baby food if your kitty refuses to eat her cat food. Some baby food contains onion or garlic powder, which is toxic for cats.

Bring your cat to your animal hospital Goodyear, AZ if she has anorexia, diarrhea, vomiting, or being lethargic for two days or more.

Brushing Your Cat

Our feline friends are very clean pets. They can spend as much as a third of the time they're actually awake grooming themselves. However, your cat will still benefit from a helping hand.

When you brush your cat, you remove dead fur and dander from her coat. This will help keep her comfortable, as these things make her furless effective at keeping her warm or cool. Plus, your kitty will swallow less fur. That directly translates to fewer hairballs, which is a plus for both you and your cat.

Pick a time when your pet is relaxed, and start petting her. Then, incorporate the brush. Many cats like being pampered. However, if your cat decides she's had enough after just a few minutes, let her go. Don’t force her to submit: that may just get you scratched.
