First, look at the formula.
Whether buying cat food or canned cat food, the first step is to look at their ingredient list. First of all, the meat cat food in the top three ingredients list is better than canned cat food. It is best to use fresh meat as the main raw material, while meat powder as the main raw material is actually inferior.
If I buy it myself, if the top three ingredients in the ingredients list are fresh chicken, fresh salmon, fresh chicken liver and other fresh meat raw materials, I will give priority to this kind, which shows that a large number of Meat Puppets are added as carnivores, and naturally meat is the staple food. If the top three ingredients in the ingredients list are all kinds of cereal flour, don't buy it. These cat foods and snacks are not suitable for cats at all
Second, look at the ingredients.
In addition to the above, it depends on the formula. In addition to the main raw materials, cat food and cat snacks will also add some other ingredients. If probiotics or prebiotics are added, the effect will be better. Probiotics and prebiotics can protect the gastrointestinal tract of puppets and promote their absorption and digestion.
In addition, the proportion of crude protein is preferably not less than 35%. This can ensure the cat's nutrition to the greatest extent. At the same time, the higher the animal protein ratio, the better. The lower the carbohydrate content, the higher the carbohydrate content, which will limit the nutrient absorption of cats and easily lead to malnutrition and illness.
Third, try to choose natural grains.
Cat food on the market is mainly commercial food and natural food, which is also easy to understand. Natural food is cat food made by directly dehydrating the meat that cats like to eat, which is very nutritious. Commercial food is cat food made of some dead or rotten animal tissues, and some additives, such as preservatives or attractants, are added to it, which is very harmful to the health of cats.
Therefore, we should try to choose natural grain when buying, and don't be greedy and buy commodity grain cheaply. You know, in case of gastrointestinal problems caused by rations, going to the pet hospital will cost more money, which is really not worth the candle.
4. Don't buy snacks containing attractants, flavors and preservatives.
Nowadays, in order to let cats take the initiative to eat their own snacks, many merchants will add a lot of attractants and essences to imitate the taste of the meat that cats like to eat and guide them to eat, but these are synthetic chemicals, which are harmful to puppets with fragile stomachs.
So when choosing snacks for dolls, try to buy some snacks without attractants and flavors. The ingredients are mainly fresh meat. The less grain and starch, the better. Nothing is the best. In addition, the composition of crude ash should be controlled below 10%. Of course, choosing to buy snacks that are directly dried or dehydrated is actually the best.
