Precautions for feeding cats:
Cats are highly carnivorous animals, so we must pay more attention to them in our daily life. For example, some meat foods contain high protein, so we should give them more. Protein's demand for meat is three times that of dogs, so it is very important to supplement high-protein meat food when growing up.
Fruit and vegetable food, fruit and vegetable food suggest that you don't give it to cats, which will have a serious health impact on their growth. Some families give their pets vegetarian food because the whole family is vegetarian. Actually this is very wrong. You know, carnivores had better not eat it. I hope to pay attention to this.
Frozen food, frozen food can't be eaten by cats. Animals have similar diets. Eating too much frozen food is bound to be bad for the stomach and intestines, and it is easy to bring various degrees of harm to the body. As the owner, frozen food must be banned.
Tips for feeding young cats
To develop a good habit of snacking cat food, young cats can eat cat food from 4 weeks old and start soaking in warm water. When the kitten 10 weeks old, it can be fed dry cat food, let it eat freely and prepare clean water.
Eat less and eat more, and pay attention to timing, quantity and fixed point when feeding.
Timing: Feed at a fixed time every day to develop good eating habits.
Quantitative: Don't eat too much or too little. With the increase of cat age, the cat's food intake will gradually increase within a certain period of time (usually three or four months) and will remain stable after eight months.
Generally, cats about 2 months old should eat more than 5 or 6 times a day. Three months ago, kittens were usually fed four times a day, at 9 am, at 12 pm, at 6 pm and at 10 pm. Feed it three times a day from March to June. Twice a day after six months, it is best to eat dry food completely from this period, which is good for its teeth and gums.
When the kitten's milk is not enough or there is no milk, she can drink special pet milk powder, and when she is older, she can add some rice flour to the milk powder. If you eat milk directly, it may cause diarrhea, because kittens can't digest milk well.
Common sense of adult cat feeding
Cats enter adulthood at the age of 12 months. Adult cats are basically mature in body and digestive system, and can digest and absorb nutrients well. Adult cats need comprehensive and balanced nutrition to maintain the best health and prevent aging.
The best diet for adult cats is cat food with comprehensive and balanced nutrition. When cats are over 7 years old, they will have many health problems, especially in metabolism, such as * * * and eyes.
To solve these problems, it is important to feed them low-fat and low-energy foods to help them maintain their normal weight. In addition, we should also ensure the content of cellulose in food to ensure the health of the stomach and intestines, and reduce the content of magnesium and phosphorus to maintain the health of the urinary system and * * *. In addition, try to make them digestible food.
Weigh cats regularly to ensure that their weight is within the normal range, and feed them according to the advice of veterinarians and nutritionists.
Regularly evaluate the physical condition of the cat and adjust the feeding amount according to the physical condition. Scratching the cat's chin gently will increase the cat's affection for you.
Cats can't drink milk and are lactose intolerant. Cats are naturally sensitive, and the gastrointestinal tract is fragile, which is prone to gastrointestinal problems such as vomiting and diarrhea.
I have had diarrhea for several days, and I am still vomiting. I suggest you feed the cat for a few days as soon as possible to recuperate, which can repair the gastrointestinal tract and have an effect on vomiting and diarrhea.
When the cat has severe diarrhea, try to make it empty stomach, or feed less digestible food, so as not to increase the burden on the stomach! If there is no continuous improvement, it is recommended to go to the hospital for examination, in case it is caused by a virus infection.
In addition, after the cat's diarrhea recovers, it is best to do an insect repellent in the body, and parasites in the body will also cause repeated diarrhea.
