Some examples
are canola oil, fish oil and saturated fats from farm animals.-Carbohydrates:
Carbohydrates provide quick energy that is essential for cats. Many types of
cat food contain carbohydrates, including vegetables, fish and meat.
-Vitamins and
minerals: Vitamins and minerals help cats maintain optimum bone strength,
endurance and durability. Cats need a certain amount of iron, magnesium,
sodium, and zinc (egg yolks, liver, fish, and vegetable butter will provide a
good intake of all of these).
-Water: Water
maintains the cat's body pH balance, maintains liver function, boosts
metabolism, and keeps the gut healthy.
Food
portioning procedure for cats
1. Feed your
cat every day around the same time. This will help prevent your cat from
straying and allow your cat to build the habit of eating every day.
2. Feed your
cat twice a day in portions that are appropriate for your cat's age, activity,
breed, and weight. If you are piping food, make sure that the food is not
missing from your cat's food bowl.
3. Feed a
nutrient-rich, energy-efficient diet. Avoid foods rich in sugar and creamer
powder. If you choose dry food, make sure that it is specially formulated for
cats.
4. Feed a
high-protein, high-calorie diet to running cats, especially children and
growing cats.
5. Don't
overfeed or over portion snack food. This will increase your cat's weight and
may also cause digestive problems.
6. Reduce
your cat's feeding portions if it appears heavier than expected (visually
inspect).
7. If your
cat loses appetite, make sure you get counseling from your pet expert.
8. Control
your cat's nutrition regularly. Check with your vet often if you have an older
cat or an overweight cat.
