Kitten feeding tips

Eat small meals often, and pay attention to timing, ration, and fixed-point feeding.

Timing: Feed at a fixed time every day to develop good eating habits. Quantitative: The amount of food should not be too large or too small. With the increase of the cat's age, the kitten's food intake will gradually increase in a certain period of time (usually three or four months), and it will remain stable for more than eight months.

Generally, cats about 2 months old need to eat more than 5 or 6 times a day. Kittens three months ago are generally fed four times a day, such as 9:00 am, 12:00 noon, 6:00 pm and 10:00 pm. From three to six months old, feed three times a day. Twice a day after six months of age.

When the milk for the kitten is not enough or there is no milk, you can drink special pet milk powder. When it is older, you can add some rice flour to the milk powder. If milk is consumed directly, it may cause diarrhea because kittens cannot digest milk well.

Adult cat feeding tips

Cats enter the adult cat stage when they are over 12 months old. The adult cat's body and digestive system have basically matured and can digest and absorb nutrients better. Adult cats need full and balanced nutrition to maintain the cat's health and prevent aging.

When cats reach age 7+, they develop a number of health problems, such as kidneys and eyes. To solve these problems, it is important to feed them low-fat, low-energy foods to help them maintain a normal weight. In addition, the content of cellulose in food should be guaranteed to ensure gastrointestinal health, and the content of magnesium and phosphorus should be reduced to maintain the health of the urinary system and kidneys. Also, try to provide them with easy-to-digest foods.

Weigh your cat regularly to keep your cat within a normal weight range and feed it according to the recommendations of your veterinarian and nutritionist. Regularly assess the cat's physical condition and adjust the amount of food fed according to the physical condition. Gently scratching the cat's chin will increase the cat's favorability towards you.
