3 BEST FOOD FOR CATS

What will happen if you stop eating food? Yes you’re right, of course you’ll die.Similarly, cats like
any other living organism survive on food.Their bodies need energy to carry out vital activities
and that energy is provided by food.Food plays an important role in boosting up their immunity
and maintaining their bodies.There are alot of breeds and every breed require nutrients
according to their needs.The most common and essential nutrients a cat could need are;animal
protein, because cats are carnivores amd need protein for many body activities; fats,water,
carbohydrates(keeping in mind that high amount of carbohydrate can lead to diabetes mellitus
in cats),vitamins(A,D,B1,B2,B3 and B6) and minerals(iron,calcium,magnesium,sodium and
chloride).Unfortunately, most people are less concerned about their cats diet because of which
the poor cats face and suffer a lot of diseases and some of them even die.

Following are the 3 main types of food a cat can consume:

1. Meat: cats are carnivores and they need animal protein which can be provided by
meat.Cooked beef turkey and chicken are rich in protein and keep heart healthy, but
remember not to feed your cat with raw and spoiled meat.Fishes are also one of the
favourite meat of cats and fishes are rich in fatty acids.
2. Whole grains:most of the cats like eating grains. The grains should be cooked for easy
digestion and they should be mashed.
3. Vegetables:vegetables contain a lot of vitamins,fibre and water. Vegetables are easily
digested

Canned and processed food are also nutritious and can be fed to cats but do consult a vet
before giving them to your pet.
