Your cat needs a well-balanced diet to stay fit
and healthy as well as access to clean drinking water at all times. How
much your cat needs to eat will depend on things such as age, how active
he/she is and his/her general health. If he/she eats more or less food
than necessary, he/she will become overweight/underweight and may suffer.
Feeding
time
Cats need a well-balanced, meat-based diet to
stay fit and healthy so your cat would not be suited to a vegetarian diet.
Some human foods, such as onions, are also poisonous to cats. Always
ask your vet for advice on what, and how
much, to feed your cat and, once you’ve found a balanced diet which suits
him/her, then stick to it. There’s a wide range of products
now available, in either dry or wet form, but whatever prepared food
you choose, always read the manufacturer’s instructions.
Place your cat’s food and water well away from
his/her litter tray (if you provide one). Feed your cat every day,
preferably splitting the daily ration into several small
meals throughout the day (unless advised otherwise by your vet). If
your cat’s eating and drinking habits change, talk to your vet, as
he/she could be ill. Changing diets suddenly can lead to
upset stomachs. Ask your vet for advice if you need to change your
cat’s diet due to his/ her age or health problems. Your cat also
needs lots of fresh water every day. Do not give him/her milk –
it can give kittens diarrhoea and sometimes causes stomach problems
in adult cats.
I'm sure many others will find it interesting because it's about a widely discussed topic.
