When the kitten has a cold, its appetite will be less than usual, so it is necessary to feed high-protein food to provide enough nutrition. You can choose cat food, chicken, eggs and fish as food. These foods are rich in protein, which can help kittens strengthen their physical strength and improve their immunity.
It should be noted that although fish is high in protein, its fat content is also high, which is easy to cause diarrhea in kittens, so it should be fed in moderation.
2. Feed more foods rich in vitamin C.
Vitamin C is a nutrient that can help improve immunity. You can increase the absorption of kittens by feeding foods rich in vitamin C to improve their resistance. For example, fresh seabuckthorn fruit, persimmon pepper and strawberry are all rich in vitamin C, which can be properly fed to kittens.
3. Avoid feeding the kitten too cold food
When the kitten has a cold, her body will feel cold. If she is fed too cold food again, it will easily cause irritation to the kitten and aggravate her condition. So avoid feeding kittens cold food, such as raw fish and ice cream. At the same time, for kittens with serious illness, it is not appropriate to feed irritating foods such as milk.
4. Give kittens enough water
It is very important to feed kittens enough water, which can effectively help kittens excrete toxins from their bodies and improve their immunity. At the same time, drinking fresh water such as boiled water and light tea for kittens can also help alleviate symptoms such as fever. It should be noted that try to avoid giving kittens breast milk, because breast milk may contain bacteria, which may easily cause diarrhea in kittens.
