Cat Treats
Limit treats to 1 per week. Otherwise you may find that your
cat refuses to eat normal food and expects nothing else.
Always check the label at the pet food store to ensure that the treat
do not contain artificial colourings or additives. The same way E
numbers can harm humans, cats are not immune to diseases and the pet
food business does manufacturer some junk food.
If you pet is overweight but you love to give him/her treats, try
to only feed your cat twice a day and remove the dry food to your cat
snacking the rest of the day. You can use a couple of biscuits from dry
food tin as a treat.
If your vet advised you that your pet is overweight, please follow Vet
diet plan carefully. Just because you are feeding your cat any
less, don’t worry.
Your cat will love you more when he/she has more energy from loosing
extra weight! Your cat will suffer less discomfort and
he/she will live longer too!
Avoid giving milk to cats, some cats are lactose intolerant.
Pet stores do provide milk for cat consumption but to avoid any
digestive problems, moderation is the key here.
If you leave a bowl full of food available to your cat during the day,
it may encourage your cat to overeat. So after feeding time,
remove the bowl.
Try not to feed your cat between meals or give him/her a treat just
because you are eating yourself. It will be a habit they will not
let you forget, so if you enjoy eating in peace yourself, do not feed
your cat until you have finished your meal.
Cats are normally fussy eaters, you may leave biscuits out overnight
but they will still expect best cuts of meat in the morning. By
removing the biscuit plate at night, they will learn to appreciate dry
food as part of their diet not just an extra treat to ignore.
This also avoids the biscuits from going stale, cats love to crunch!
