Guide to Cat Nutrition

The common phrase 'you are what you eat' also applies to your pets. A healthy diet increases the longevity and well-being of your cat. This means that doing your research concerning the bodily needs of your feline will increase his stamina, strength, and general happiness.

Obviously most pet owners are not educated in the biological make-up of their animals. You should, however, understand the basic nutritional requirements of your cat.

• Cats are carnivores, therefore their meals should consist mainly of meat.
• Read labels- make sure that their food includes taurine, arginine, vitamin A, arachidonic acid and niacin.
• Regardless of age, all cats need at least twenty-six percent of the diet to be composed of protein and ten percent to be of fat.
• Cats should be fed a number of small meals every day- at least three.

If the cat food is created by a reputable manufacturer, it can typically be depended on. One such brand is TRIUMPH PET INDUSTRIES. The main ingredient in Triumph's products is always animal protein and they contains all the essential nutrients. The only choice in the matter depends on the life-stage and taste preference of your cat.
