Product Information

Some pets have specific nutritional needs based on clinically identified issues, and they should eat diets appropriate to their needs under veterinary supervision. The most common food intolerances appear to be colourings, sugars, wheat, milk and soya. Obviously not all pets are sensitive to these things, but if the effects keep re-occurring it’s best to consult your vet. My cat's not eating The truth is, there are hundreds of food brands out there, and most will be just fine for most cats. But for those that want to go the extra mile for their cats, there are a few brands to avoid. I would strongly recommend avoiding anything that claims to be vegetarian or vegan – it is unethical to feed these to cats, which have evolved as carnivores. Commercial options are a safer bet for nutrition. The PFMA says that commercially prepared raw dog food marked as ‘complete’ meets the guidelines to provide the nutritional balance a dog needs in their daily diet. Costs are based on an average medium dog (10-25kg), such as a French bulldog, on a simple dry-food diet. Medium dog: monthly food costs

First, you should determine your cat’s weight and body condition score (BCS). The body condition score determines whether or not your cat is overweight, and in the case of the 9-point scale, it even approximates how overweight your cat is. You then need to work out the calorie allowance for your cat. Pro 38 Lamb & Rice is specially formulated in the U.K. for kittens to fuel their needs in their growing years. Made with high quality, easy-to-digest ingredients. Essential taurine for heart health & balanced minerals to support kidneys & bladder. High-quality protein for lean muscles. Vitamin E, Omega-3s & -6s for beautiful skin & fur. Composition As a veterinarian, I often see cats with hairballs. While many causes of hairballs are medical, requiring a vet’s input, dietary support can help cats to get rid of troublesome hairballs while the cause of the overgrooming is found. For long-haired cats especially, a good hairball diet can make a huge difference to your cat’s quality of life. This hairball diet from Purina has it all, and vets and reviewers certainly seem to agree that it is one of the best hairball foods on the market. From dry and wet dog food to raw, there are hundreds of options available, and it can be hard to work out what’s actually best for your pet. Dry foods are usually the most economical, and easiest for you to feed and store. Owners who feed wet food should monitor their pet's teeth, as it can predispose them to dental disease.

Grains are also getting a bad reputation. That is because pet foods follow human food trends, and while humans are playing around with grain-free, paleo, low-carb diets, manufacturers of pet foods play on that when marketing their foods. Grains provide excellent sources of nutrients not found in high quantities elsewhere, so they’re often added for this reason. Beyond this, it's really about what your individual pet likes the taste of and how much you are willing to spend.

We've compared the monthly cost of the most popular brands of cat food, as well as the best and worst scoring brands from our survey, based on an average 4kg cat on a simple dry food diet. Cat food monthly costs compared You might be wondering why indoor cats need different food. The reason is that indoor-only cats can be prone to a range of diseases that are rarer in outdoor cats, such as obesity and urinary problems. This range from Purina Pro Plan is specially formulated to help your cats avoid some of these issues. It’s low-calorie and contains natural fiber from chicory root to help to prevent hairballs. Having said that, wet cat foods don’t benefit dental health. Not all dry foods do, either! As a vet, my go-to recommended mix is to feed 70-80% of calories as wet food and the remaining 20-30% as dry kibble—ideally something that helps with dental disease, like our number one dry food above. What Sort of Cat Bowl Should I Get?Should you feed your cat wet cat food or dry cat food? Each has pros and cons, and it can be hard to decide. As a veterinarian, and in the absence of any medical conditions, I would advise you to feed your cats a mixture of wet and dry: around 75% of the diet calories should be from wet cat food, while the other 25% can be from dry food.

However, the BVA warns that it can be difficult to do it well and, unless you work with a veterinary-trained nutritionist, there's a risk of harm to your pet’s health. Do dogs need different food as they get older?

For your cat’s mental and physical health, you should consider feeding them with puzzle feeders that allow them to express some of this natural behavior. Many types of puzzle feeders are available, from the treat ball style to those designed like mice for your cat to ‘hunt’. Some pets appear to be sensitive or intolerant to certain ingredients and additives, and this can cause a variety of problems.
