When raising cats for the first time, they don’t know scientific feeding and management. They are always afraid of being hungry, so they feed them constantly or in large amounts. As a result, the cats become ill or even die, especially kittens. Overfeeding is the most common cause of illness or death. ​​​​​​

Raising kittens usually starts when they are young. The digestive and absorption functions of kittens are not yet perfect, and some kittens are very greedy, so they are easily prone to vomiting and diarrhea due to overeating. If not treated in time, they often die. The cat was not "pampered", and the joy turned into sadness. Generally speaking, kittens just bought from the market are most likely to cause vomiting and diarrhea because their new owners let them eat and drink too much because they are hungry and thirsty.

Therefore, for kittens just bought from the market, let them drink water first and then feed them food. In the first few days, kittens are generally allowed to eat 80% to 90% full. The best food to feed is kitten products sold in the market. This kind of food is rich in nutrients and in the right proportion, which is beneficial to the digestion and absorption of kittens. In addition, when raising kittens for the first time, it is best to consult an experienced person or animal doctor, and take them to the animal hospital for a health examination and develop a vaccination and deworming plan.
