- B efore our present dogs and cats were domesticated, they had to forage for their food as predators or as scavengers. ...
- As time progressed, these animals became more domesticated and more dependent on humans for food and shelter. ...
- This meant quick meals with little left overs for the live-in cat and dog. This brought on a new industry, the pet food industry. This bag or can with prepared food for pets, was and is a convenient time saving means to feed the companion pet. ...
- In 1981 in my first book co-authored with Martin Zucker "How To Have A Healthier Dog", I informed you, the pet owner, of practices in the pet food industry that had negative effects on the animals consuming their foods. Since then many have gotten on the "band wagon" and began making changes in pet food diets, some pet owners began cooking for their pets and others switched to raw meat diets. ... Because of these positive changes, it was hypothesized, by some, since the pets responded positively to raw meat diets and since the early ancestors had consumed their meat raw, then this is natural for the domestic dog and cat. ...
- We can assume that the present day dog and cat are the descendent of those who survived. ... Since the adult tapeworm is found in the dog, cat, fox and wild carnivores, it is reasonable to postulate that consuming the larvae of this tapeworm can and will infect the dog and cat, developing into the adult stage. ...
- It has been observed for the past decade or more that there has been a play on words by some pet food companies in their ads "no byproducts". ...
- When you observe an ad promoting a pet food having "no byproducts", does the company really understand "byproducts"? .

- www.dagfinnur.is
- Although most pet cats are now fed entirely on tinned or packaged food, their nutritional requirements are exactly the same as their ancestors' centuries ago. So to stay healthy, a domestic cat must receive a balanced diet containing all the nutrients that would be found in the natural diet of a hunting cat. ...
- Dogs can survive happily on an almost vegetarian diet which would make your cat very ill. A cat needs a high protein diet with components that are only found in animal tissue. ... Your cat cannot manufacture its own taurine or arginine and has to get them from animal tissue. Your cat also needs vitamin A and a compound called arachidonic acid which can only be found in meat. Your cat also needs a balance of other nutrients. Many of these are found in tissues forming part of the natural diet like bone and skin, so a diet of lean steak will not give your cat everything it needs. Most of these ingredients are either present in, or added to, commercially prepared cat foods. ... Fat also gives flavour and texture to the food. ... Indeed, a diet containing too much carbohydrate is likely to give a cat an upset stomach.
- · What makes up a balanced diet? To maintain your cats health and well being it must have a balanced diet. ... Cats and kittens fed on an all meat diet will develop nutritional deficiencies and growth problems. The most reliable and convenient way to provide a balanced and palatable diet is to feed high quality prepared cat food. ...
- Cats prefer their food at room temperature. ...
- SHOULD I OFFER MILK to my cat? It is a myth that cats need to be given milk. ... Too much milk may therefore give an adult cat diarrhoea. Water is the best thing for your cat to drink. As the cat is still, at heart, a desert animal it can survive on less water than many other animals. But it does need a regular supply of clean fresh water, particularly if it is being fed dried food. Canned food is threequarters water so cats fed on a moist diet may not be seen drinking.

- The Diet For Cats .
- There are two rules to remember when providing the best possible diet for your cats: (a) if you can buy it in the supermarket, don't; and (2) cats are carnivores and must eat meat to obtain all of the nutrients they need to stay healthy. ...
- I am often asked by my adopters what to feed their new cat or kitten. I encourage everyone to keep their new pet on Helping Paws' tried and true diet. A high quality dry cat food (our choice is Nutro Kitten or Adult Nutro Natural Choice) should be left out at all times so the kitten or cat can nibble constantly. ...
- All of our cats get some canned cat food twice a day (usually Whiskas, Friskies or Nine Lives, never non-brand name). We are very careful to make sure the kitties don't eat too much, as canned food tends to be a favorite and could cause both overeating and future weight problems. ...
- While I believe cats need a combination of dry and wet cat food to maintain good health and luxurious fur, there must be a limit put on the amount of canned food your cats consume. The third type of food, the moist food, are usually loaded with preservatives and should be saved for an occasional treat rather than a steady diet. ...
- When choosing your cats' food, remember the less expensive foods may not be the most economical. Premium cat foods use higher quality meat and contain more nutrients, so your cat will eat less, eliminate less and still gain the calories it requires. The cost ends up being pennies more per day for a premium food. ...
- Also, premium foods help maintain the health of your cat and therefore you would save on medical costs too. ...
- Read the labels on the cat foods you buy now and the labels on a premium cat food. Ingredients are listed by weight, so if chicken is one of the first items listed, the food is high in protein. If corn or corn meal is listed first, the food is high in carbohydrates. ...

In all but a few states, it is legal to remove unusable parts from chickens and sell them to pet food manufacturers. For example, some cheap or generic kibble-type dog food contains ground-up feathers. ... If you are concerned about your companion animals health and about the cruelties of the meat industry, now is the time to stop buying meat-based pet food.
- Dogs and cats nutritional needs are easily met with a vegan diet and certain supplements. ...
- Some people wonder if its cruel to omit meat from a dog or cats diet. Vegetarian or vegan dogs and cats enjoy their food and good health, and a vegetarian diet for your companion animal is ethically consistent with animal rights philosophy. ... Besides, to feed them the meat they would naturally eat, you would have to serve them whole mice or allow them to hunt for themselves, an option that is unfair to native species of birds and other small animals, since companion cats and dogs have been removed from the food chain and have advantages that free-roaming animals lack.
- Additionally, some dogs need two amino acids called L-carnitine and taurine, which are not generally added to commercial dog foods and can be insufficient in homemade dog food as well. ... This illness generally strikes middle-aged dogs who are deficient in L-carnitine or taurine because of breed, size, individual genetic makeup, or diet. Supplementary L-carnitine and taurine can be bought at your local health food store. ...
- Commercial pet food companies often add taurine obtained from molluscs. ... These recipes are probably the healthiest way to feed cats a vegan diet at this time.
- Dogs and cats who are eating only cooked or processed food also benefit from the addition of digestive enzymes to their food. These are obtainable through animal supply catalogs and health food stores. Any raw vegetables in a dogs diet must be grated or put through a food processor to enhance digestibility.

- Why Feed Your Cat High-Quality Foods? .
- For the Aging Cat (and Dog!) .
- Currently, I feed my cats a combination of a commercial and home-made diet. After having bought into the commercial cat food industry's claim that cats should always eat just one kind of cat food, I finally realized only last year that that approach didn't make any more sense than saying that humans should only eat one food their entire lives. It is simply a self-serving ploy on the part of the cat food industry to get consumers locked into feeding their cats just one kind of food from just one company. So for years my poor cats have eaten just one kind of commercial food (aside from the homemade foods I made for them), though at least I fed them the "good stuff. ...
- What really made me rethink this single-food approach, amusingly enough, was that I acquired goldfish last year. ... One of the things that all the goldfish books were adamant about was that, hardy though goldfish are, they must be fed a varied diet to keep them regular and healthy. ...
- So I asked myself, if even goldfish need a varied diet to keep them healthy, then how much more so do cats need it? The answer seemed obvious when I thought about it. I think it is better for cats, just as with humans, to eat a varied diet to help keep their digestive systems healthy and strong.
- So I started to feed my cats a combination of different kinds of high-quality kibbles, and at the same time I switched to Wellness Super5 mix, a canned food that is of much better quality than what I was using before. ...
- Since making the switch to the combination of kibbles and to the Wellness canned food, I have noticed that the fur of my cats is plusher and they seem, on the whole, happier about their food and healthier and livelier. I am not the only one; people who don't know about the diet change have commented on the improvements they see.

- www.pfma.com
- About PFMA | Pet Ownership | Pet Food Market | Pet Food Benefits | Nutrition|.
- It is important to remember when feeding pets that a cat is not a small dog. It is commonly supposed that because cats and dogs belong to the group of animals called carnivores that their nutritional needs are similar and that, as a result, they can be fed the same food. A cat has evolved differently having many features in its physiology which give it unique nutrient requirements.
- The only sure way to provide a complete and balanced diet for pets is to blend a mixture of ingredients known to provide the various essential nutrients. ...
- • The ratio of intestine to body length in the cat is 4:1 compared to 6:1 in the dog. This means that food spends more time in the dog's digestive tract and that there is a greater surface area over which to absorb nutrients. ...
- The cat, however must have vitamin A provided in its diet either naturally or as a supplement. ...
- The enzyme system responsible for this conversion does not work well in a cat and its requirement for a supply of this vitamin is considerably greater than that of a dog. ...
- The cat appears to break down protein very rapidly and is unable to reduce the rate of breakdown when dietary supplies are low, as a consequence cats have an increased requirement for the amino acid arginine which is essential for metabolism. ...
- As taurine occurs almost solely in raw materials of animal origin, cats should not be fed on a purely vegetarian diet. ...
- In most mammals including the dog, the requirement can be met by the provision of linoleic acid in the diet (derived from vegetable oils). The cat cannot fully convert linoleic acid into the more complex derived forms, such as arachidonic acid, which is required during reproduction and at other life stages. Pet food manufacturers must therefore ensure that it is present and available in cat foods, particularly those fed during reproduction. ...
- Cats are true (or obligate) carnivores and must have nutrients of animal origin in their diet. Cats should not be fed a vegetarian diet.
