Diet is key
A well-balanced diet is the most important factor in helping your cat maintain a healthy weight. It’s not just about how much they eat, but also the type of food and how often they eat. We can guide you on the best options for your cat’s age, breed, and activity level.
Essential nutrients
Cats need a balanced intake of vitamins, minerals, and omega fatty acids. Be sure to choose a food that meets these nutritional requirements, and always have fresh water available.
Foods to avoid
Certain foods are dangerous for cats, including:
- Onions
- Garlic
- Raisins and grapes
- Macadamia nuts
- Bread dough
- Alcohol
- Foods with artificial sweeteners
Avoid feeding your cat dog food, as it often contains more carbohydrates than cats can process. Stick to a diet that’s rich in high-quality, nutrient-dense cat food.
