😻 HOW TO FEED YOUR CAT
Be patient with your cats and learning journey.
Cats are sensitive to food changes.
And you can’t expect to learn everything about nutrition after watching 1 video.
I’ve been studying nutrition since 2017, and I’m still learning every day.
Education is the best tool you have!
▶️ AAFCO
Learn how to read cat food labels properly. That way YOU can figure out what’s best for your cat.
Don’t rely on someone else to tell you what to feed YOUR cat.
I get it. You’re too busy. Watch the videos below.
▶️ PICKY CATS transition
#1 complaint “my cat is too picky for good food”. The video above is specifically formulated for picky cats.
▶️ Cat food REVIEWS
The reviews list is in the description. 100+ records of all types of food (whole prey, raw, raw premixes, freeze-dried raw, wet, and dry) available in and outside the US.
▶️CHEAP raw to buy locally
Find those brands at your local pet store.
▶️ Best CHEAP wet food
ANY wet food that says complete and balanced is better than ALL types of dry. Simply because cats rely on food for moisture.
▶️ Upgrade KIBBLE
Boost your cat’s nutrition easily. Offer fresh foods you can get at the grocery store. Proper balance is key.
▶️ The TRUTH about kibble
Dry food is dry. And only 10% moisture. Dry food dehydrates your cat from the inside out.
▶️ More on moisture
“My cat drinks plenty of water” Nope! The average cat eating dry food only would have to consume over 8 oz of water daily just to stay hydrated!
📝 WHY AAFCO?
Most of what you see on the cat food label means nothing in feed law.
For example, “premium” does not have an official definition. AAFCO says, “Whereas premium gasoline must meet higher octane standards than regular gasoline, premium pet food doesn’t have special requirements that differ from any other pet food.”
