Cat nutrition
Cats can be fussy creatures!
We recommend a premium food for the right age and lifestyle. A young cat should stay on kitten food until 12 months. Adult cat food is for cats between 12 months and 7 years. Once your cat is over 7 years old, it should change to a senior food.
You may choose to feed only dry, a mixture of dry and canned food, or only canned food. Dry food helps to exercise your cat’s jaw and assists with teeth cleaning, so we recommend including some dry food.
Some examples of excellent quality food include:
- Hill’s science diet
- Royal Canin
- Advance
Clean, fresh water should be available at all times for your cat. Even if your cat drinks from unusual places, such as the bathroom tap, it will need its own water bowl. Ideally this should be placed some distance away from its food and be completely separate from the litter tray.
Many cats enjoy drinking from a water fountain. There are several water fountains on the market for cats!
