Feeding your pet so that she can lead a happy and fruitful life is important to all pet owners. Cat owners have a lot of questions about what’s best to feed their feline and how often to administer the feedings. Here are some easy to follow rules to keep your cat healthy!
1.) Water, water, water: Like us, cats need water to thrive and be well. Think og the cat’s ater like it was your own. Keep that bowl clean and change the water multiple times a day so your cat will want to drink it.
2.) Treats: Keep treats healthy and purposeful. Treats can be used to entice a cat into learning a trick or as an incentive in litter box training. Just like us, a cat who gets too many treats, especially a house cat low in exercise, will begin to develop problems from oversnacking such as enlarged belly and stiff legs.
3.) How often should cats be fed to maintain a healthy life? Ideally, cats should be fed twice a day and the food should be put out at two times a day when you are able to fill the dish. Oftn times when dry food is left out it can lead to overfeeding in a car who doesn’t stop itself from overeating.
4.) Canned foot or dry? There are a number of factors to consider when deciding between these choiceds. First, if you can ascertain the preference of the cat, it may help when trying to get her on a strict feeding schedule. Price of the food should also be considered naturally. Only get what you can afford and your cat will get used to that option if it’s afforded nothing else.
Ultimately, treat your cat as you would a member of your family and you’ll be sure to enjoy each other for years to come.
