My Cat Food – Let’s Chat
Hey, It’s Me – Your Feline Friend
I thought I would give you a few pointers on what kind of cat food I like. You may not know it but I am actually quite a unique animal. My ancestors were meat eaters and I haven’t changed much over the years when it comes to what I need to eat either. My relatives were carnivores which mean we need mostly meat to stay healthy and have our nutritional needs met. No, really – it is true; I am not just saying that.
Please Do Not Feed Me By-Products or Fruits and Vegetables
One thing I really do not like and I am sure you would agree is by-products. After all, would you like to eat the feet and necks of animals? Well, neither do I. The word by-product has too general a meaning of exactly what I would be eating. Not being a big vegetable or fruit eater either, I do not need these foods added to my diet. While this may be fine for your diet, our metabolism requires mostly protein and fat for energy so we do not need a huge amount of carbohydrates. I understand why carbohydrates are used to form kibble for dry cat food but I am talking about canned food.
As you can see, these are products that are used very often by the makers of canned cat foods. They should just ask and I will be more than happy to tell them, this is not tolerated well. Of course, the reasoning is that they can make cheaper cat food by adding these unnecessary ingredients, but do they care that they are adding ingredients that do nothing for me?
Have you noticed that sometimes I have problems with my eyes or I have a really bad hair day for several days? It could be possible this is from the food I eat. There is a saying; you are what you eat.
Make sure the very first ingredient listed on the can is protein from a meat source and not grain source. Remember us felines are true carnivores. Please make sure these unfavorable ingredients are not included: by-products, corn, corn gluten, wheat, wheat gluten, artificial colors or artificial preservatives.
I know it is not your fault. You are inundated by the manufacturers of these foods telling you they are putting healthy products in the foods they are providing. I wish they had to eat feet and necks. But, seriously if you want to give us the best food to help us to stay healthy and happy, we need food that is similar to what we would get if we were still in the wild. Even though most of us are now domesticated pets and no longer wild, our needs really haven?t changed.
Listen, if you do not want foods that contain artificial ingredients, fillers and artificial colors, then you should consider that I do not want these in my food either. The more nutrient dense the food, the less I will probably eat because my needs are met.
