Your cat food label holds a lot of information, ranging from price to the ingredients included in the food. Having a good look at this label will tell you all the necessary information to ensure the food is perfect for your cat.

The label will also weigh the bag, flavour, age specifications, etc., mentioned on the label. This means that all the specific information that you need will be on the brand itself! Bags are having varied amounts of food. If you are a regular cat parent, you will have an idea of how much food you will require. If you are a new pawrent, then you might take a week to figure out how much your cat eats

By nature, cats are predatory animals, and they need meat to survive. They need at least 30% protein intake to maintain their tissue making strength. Kittens have the maximum protein requirement as they are growing, and the tissue building process is high. In adults, this requirement is average, whereas older cats also need a high protein intake to deal with various ageing issues. If you are a non-vegetarian lover and can feed your cat's meat, you can buy food with standard protein requirements.

Manufacturing brands also hold a lot of importance. The reason for this is that reputed manufacturers have closely regulated standards and facilities. This implies that the food they make is made in a right and hygienic place. If you are a first-time cat parent, then trust the brand names that you may have heard. For example, Whiskas, Purina or Perfect Fit are well-heard brands and have an extensive consumer base. You may also consult with people who have experienced cat owners.

This is related to the number of nutrients and food that your pet's body absorbs out of the food that it eats. Just because your cat eats, it does not always mean that it is digestible! Keep this in mind; what is not digested is excreted. Loose faeces, which are foul-smelling or irregular that indicates the food isn't digesting well.

Artificial preservatives and byproducts are some things that cannot be digested. It can also cause blockage in the digestion of the right ingredients. Your pet will get more vitamins and nutrients to grow into a beautiful kitty goddess or god with good quality ingredients!

Too many ingredients printed on the label can confuse even the most experienced cat parents. Here is a simple hack to keep in mind, look for 3 main things; high protein, high moisture, and low carbs! This is because cats are predators in origin, and they need these for building tissues. This can come from various ingredients like meat, eggs, beef, fish, etc. Many manufacturers because they also contain some essential minerals and nutrients that your cat also needs

Cats also require a lot of water, but they are not biologically programmed to recognize thirst. So if your cat is not finishing its water bowl, you should consider alternating with wet food. Dry food has all the moisture taken out, so wet food would be great to provide the water. Along with this, even fats are required. You may get these fatty acids in omega-3 or EPA, DHA, and ALA.

The bad guys: There are certain ingredients that your cat should not be eating at all. These include artificial colours, synthetic preservatives, corn, wheat, soy, sugar, any byproduct, rendered fat, carrageenan, vitamin 3K, sodium nitrate and sodium nitrite.

Every owner has an idea about the tastes their kitties like. So while buying, we can get those specific flavours and tastes. Also, alternating their food to get them used to various flavours is something experienced cat parents do. If you are unsure about their liking, first buy a sample or more miniature packs so that you can have an idea as to what your cats like

Specific foods are catered to serve specific age needs. So kitten foods are designed for kittens and contain proportions that are fit for a kitten's growth. Similarly, adult cat foods are tailored to suit the needs of adult cats. Buying age-specific foods will ensure that your babies get the proper nutrition at the right age

There are various cat breeds we may come across. Some breeds have specific food demands that are adequate for their growing and nurturing needs. Example specifics have different food in the market that is exclusively designed for their species. So purchasing breed-specific food is also one of the recommended practices

You will need to buy kitten food until your kitty is not a year's old. This food has high protein quantities that are required for your babies. Kittens do all sorts of activities and are much much more active than adults. Their body goes through the process of building tissues more extensively than adult cats. They may also eat a little on the different side since they are very active as kittens and need all that energy to dance around the house. The kitten food is designed to take care of this high protein requirement which is why it is recommended that you feed kitten food to your babies up to a year old

You can start buying adult food for your cats once they are above 1 year. Now the needs of your cats have changed, so it is best to shift from kitten food to adult food. Adult cats are not as active as kittens and mostly prefer lazing around. Their body does not go through an extensive tissue making process and wear and tear. Their body needs more moisture content than proteins. The adult food is designed keeping in mind this concept. Your cat should eat adult food once it becomes a year old!

Both aluminum and steel (or "tin") cans are recyclable. Pay attention to the label to see the ingredients is being used. Purina products made from aluminium say so directly on the can. Place both steel and aluminium cans in your household metals recycling bin.

A recent Purina survey found that more than half of cat owners have been recycling their cat food cans, even if they are made of aluminium and can be recycled. Many owners recycle newspapers, soda cans, canned food, and junk mail compared with cat food cans.

Pet food bags are made of multiple layers of paper, plastic and aluminium foil and cannot be easily recycled separately. The entire pack cannot be recycled.

Yes, in addition to aluminium cans (most beverage cans and some pet food cans), it is also one of the most profitable recyclable materials. 

Cat food is not ideal for dogs because it is high in fat, calories, and protein. Dogs with sensitive stomachs can experience digestive problems, nausea, and diarrhoea after eating a cat.

The ingredients used in cat and dog foods are similar, if not identical. The difference is in the amount used for a balanced diet. Cats, for example, are obsessive predators and need a lot of protein, essential amino acids, fatty acids, and a lot of vitamins.

Storing cat food is easy! Here are some quick tips for storing cat food effectively.

• Many dry food bags have zip locks which make them easier to keep. 

• If your food does not have a zip lock, then you can use a plastic clamp, the ones that we use to dry clothes and fix it up on the opening. This will deal with the beginning of the bag and stop moisture from entering. Likewise, you can use rubber bands or threads to close the gaps.

• You can also store the dry food in air-tight containers, which is the best-recommended practice! You won’t have to buy a separate air-tight container for storing this.
