Whether it is pearl milk tea instant noodles or hot pot rice and chicken, they all have their own loyal fans. You have your favorite delicacies, and cats also have their favorites. But not only do we have requirements for food such as taste and nutrition, cats also have the same requirements.

So how should picky cats be "served" to meet their high requirements? First of all, they love to eat meat...

More protein, more fat

Because cats are pure carnivores, their demand for protein is four times that of humans, and they require more fat intake. Humans are omnivores, and protein and fat are not the main energy supplies for humans.

Therefore, cats’ bodies obtain energy more by digesting protein and fat, but are less capable of converting carbohydrates into energy. If the supply of protein and fat in food is insufficient, it will not only lead to insufficient energy and sluggishness, but also cause problems such as underdevelopment, weak muscle strength, and poor immunity.

In addition, cats have a higher tolerance for foods containing saturated fat and absorb fat differently from humans, which allows them to utilize high-protein and high-fat meats better than humans. Therefore, cats prefer to eat foods with high protein and fat content compared to carbohydrate foods. The ideal ones are various meats and fish.

Closer to body temperature, greater appetite

But just because there is fish and meat, the arrogant cats may still not buy it. The temperature and shape of things will affect the cat’s appetite. Due to the evolutionary characteristics of cats, cats prefer to eat food that is close to body temperature.

When cats' ancestors hunted, the temperature of fresh prey was very close to body temperature, while dead, stale prey became cold, so food closer to body temperature would make them think it was fresh food, which is why some cats are interested in shoveling. One of the reasons why people don’t catch a cold when eating food taken directly from the refrigerator.

In addition to temperature, the form of the food itself will also affect how the cat feels about it. Relatively speaking, the protein, fat, carbohydrate, and moisture levels in wet food are closer to natural prey. Weihao® Pet Nutrition Research Center has conducted experiments to prove that feeding mixed dry and wet food not only makes cats eat more delicious food, but also has many benefits for cats’ health.

Wet and dry combination for more health

Dry food has higher energy and nutrient density, and dry food particles rub more fully with teeth, which can promote oral health; while wet food contains more water, which can well reduce the chance of cats getting lower urinary tract diseases. In addition, a combination of dry and wet food can better maintain a healthy weight.

Therefore, the meat is tender and the soup is juicyThe delicious wet food - Miao Xian Bao, has an indescribable and irresistible temptation for cats who are born to be master hunters.

Wet food is very palatable for cats, and it also naturally provides moisture for cats who don’t like to drink water. From this, it can be seen that the combination of dry food and wet food can not only give cats a good meal but also achieve balanced nutrition.
