To optimally meet your cat’s food needs, high-quality cat food is recommended. You have a choice between wet feed, dry food and biologically appropriate raw feed (BARF). Which feed is best suited to your cat depends on many factors. This includes the cat’s age, weight and general health status. If your cat suffers from allergies or intolerances, a diet adapted to its special needs is necessary – for example with grain-free or hypoallergenic cat food. As carnivores, cats need a large amount of protein and animal fat, which they get from meat, fish, poultry or egg. They also need the amino acids taurine and arginine, essential fatty acids, vitamin A and niacin. It only takes a very small amount of these nutrients, but they are vital. High-quality cat food contains these ingredients in the right proportions and top quality.
