Generally speaking, you enter old age at the age of seven. At this time, there will be some subtle changes in all aspects of your body, such as emotional intimacy, frequent meowing, picky eaters, daze, and changes in sleep time.

10 years old officially enters the old age, and the changes will be more obvious at this time.1/kloc-0 years old may face various diseases.

Therefore, if fat cats want to lose weight, they must consider losing weight before 1 1 years old, and it is best to have a physical examination once a year after 7 years old.

So, what do old cats need to pay attention to if they want to lose weight?

1, physical examination, regular physical examination every year to determine whether the cat is healthy. If you have heart disease, it is not easy to lose weight through exercise. If your joints are not good, don't exercise vigorously. Make a weight loss plan according to your cat's physical condition.

2, diet control to lose weight should be based on age 1 1 year, you can control the diet, high protein, low fat, low carbon water and low fiber, you can eat less. For example, 75% of the maintenance energy requirement (MER) was fed in the first two weeks, and 100% of MER was alternately fed in the second two weeks for 6 months. This is intermittent calorie restriction (ICR), which can achieve the goal of losing weight for cats.

1 1 cats need to keep their weight, because old cats are too thin and lose muscle and body fat, which will increase the mortality rate. What is needed is high protein and medium fat, and cats must eat well.

One thing to note is that it is best to record your weight every day, especially for old cats, such as 1 1 year. If your weight changes too much, you should pay special attention to ensuring that your cat is full. If they are picky about food, they will change what they like to eat, and it is easy to get sick if they are not full for a long time.

Also, eat less and eat more, regularly and quantitatively. First, because cats are old, their stomachs will be bad, and eating too much is easy to accumulate food in their stomachs. Second, it is not conducive to losing weight.

3. It is suggested to feed the old cat with raw meat or canned staple food, which is easy to have a bad appetite and picky eaters, and the stomach will deteriorate. If you consider losing weight, you need to pay more attention to your diet.

Although it is convenient to feed dry food, it is better for old cats to choose raw meat or canned staple food if they want to lose weight, because it is easy to digest, tastes better, has high water content and is full, and fat cats tend to lose weight.

Feeding raw flesh and blood is mainly self-made, with various proportions of bones and viscera, plus some nutritional elements, changing recipes every week to ensure balanced nutrition, attention should be paid to sanitary conditions and meat selection.

There are many brands of canned staple food, both domestic and imported. It is recommended to choose small cans for easy storage. If cats don't eat raw flesh and blood, they can also mix dry food.

4, more interaction can play some small games with cats, such as Doby cat sticks, new toys, make cats noisy.

If you are a cat with poor joints and decreased mobility, you can refer to marker training to let the cat learn some new skills, such as shaking hands and sitting down. Even if you can't learn, at least it's much better than the nest.

It should be noted that not all elderly cats can exercise, especially strenuous exercise. After you need a physical examination, you can only increase your exercise if you are good in all aspects. Otherwise, small-scale exercise or similar marker training can be considered.

Mainly older cats, they can't lose weight casually, which has a lot to do with their health. Therefore, it is best to lose weight before you get old, and you can control your diet and exercise a little after you get old. You must pay attention to the health of cats, don't blindly reduce food intake and increase exercise.

5. Let's talk about the fact that the fat old cat around me is not old. I think I just stepped into old age, not very fat, just a little fat. Looks like his legs are short and he's covered in meat. Mainly because it doesn't like sports and doesn't see it move. At most, I walk around, occasionally scratching the cat and scratching the board, and at other times I squat.

Then I mainly lose weight, because I am a little picky about food, so I don't quantify it regularly. It eats buffet, mainly baked food+freeze-dried staple food, and toys make it move. Now it's a normal figure, at least it doesn't look so fat, and it's not heavy from the back.

The food is delicious. High protein, medium fat and low moisture. Exercise really means buying all kinds of teasing sticks to see which one it likes better, and the cat scratching board has changed to its favorite one, that is, reducing the feeding amount and exercising to make the cat slim back to its normal size.

Therefore, the problem of losing weight of old cats should be decided according to the actual situation of cats themselves. The health of cat food is one thing, and some diseases are another. When you are old, you will lose weight if you feed them with raw bones or canned staple food for a long time.
