Cats and Nutrition

It is bad enough obesity is running rampant amongst humans, but now we have managed to take our pets down that road too.

There are so many types of cat food available to help with weight control. Oftentimes it becomes a concern as to what is truly healthy and what isn't. This is where speaking to your veterinarian is helpful. If you have a kitten and it has been taken prematurely from their mother, there may be certain nutrients they require during the first few weeks.

If your cat is elderly and inactive and gaining weight, an alternative feeding program may be needed.

Regardless of age, your pet is your responsibility especially since, like babies, they are unable to speak tell you how they are feeling.

Cats can develop many similar problems that humans have: hearing loss, cataracts, digestive problems, urinary issues, teeth and breath problems, etc.

Changes in behavior, toilet or eating habits need to be addressed as soon as they are noticed. This will possibly avoid a serious health condition, if treated timely.
