Feeding your Cat

Dry food is healthier for your Cat

• It costs about half the price of the leading tinned food to feed per week
• Its more convenient - no more tins
• Taste guarantee : "If your Cat doesn't eat it we'll give you your money back!"

When you get your kitten you will need to feed them about 4 small meals throughout the day up to 3 months of age. From 3 – 6 months about 3 times a day is sufficient, then 2 times a day from about 6 months onwards. When choosing the food for your cat make sure it is formulated to meet their needs, i.e. you need to feed your kitten a food formulated specifically for kittens. Alot of research and development has gone into producing a food that will ensure your kitten/cat receives the nutrition they need for healthy growth and development.

Whether you use a ceramic, glass, stainless-steel or plastic bowl, make sure it is wider than your cat's whiskas. Cats dislike narrow bowls and remove food from them to eat off the floor. Thoroughly wash your cat's food and water bowls daily but avoid bleaches or detergents with citrus or pine smells. They are likely to repel rather than attract your cat. Remember you cat prefers to eat in privacy.

Changing Foods

If you are changing your cats diet do so gradually over a week or so. Feed the old food with a small amount of the new food, then gradually decrease the amount of old food and increase the new food until they are completely changed over. This method helps avoid any digestive upset due to change of diet and is especially important with kittens who are very sensitive to diet.
