When we buy food, do we often choose carefully, choosing green, healthy, pollution-free, and high nutritional value? When buying food, we must look at the place of origin, nutritional value table, production date, etc. A series of things , hehe, then do we need to pay special attention when buying food for our dear cats? Let’s take a look below!

1. Look at the top five highest ingredients among the ingredients

(1) If there are meat or poultry by-products, then Out is out and does not need to be considered. Here, the three words "by-products" are the key. The so-called meat and additional products, to put it bluntly, the best parts have definitely been used up, and you can imagine what is left.

(2) If grains account for the majority of the five major ingredients (for example, there are 3 items), Out will be eliminated. Obviously, do we spend money to feed our cats so much cereal? How much is the cereal worth?

(3) For meat, you must specify what kind of meat it is. If it only indicates "poultry meat, animal meat", Out will be eliminated. Do you dare to feed cats the meat of unknown cows, ghosts, and snakes?

(4) Among cereals, brown rice is more beneficial, while oats and other cereals are also rich in natural fiber.

2. Look at Fat in the ingredients

(1) The fat must indicate what kind of animal or poultry it is (such as chicken fat, beef fat). If it only indicates animal fats and poultry fats, I'm sorry, the monsters and monsters are here again. OUTout

(2) In addition to animal and poultry fats, some cat food manufacturers will use vegetable oils. In fact, vegetable oils with high quality and beneficial to cat health are also a good choice.

3. Look at the preservatives in the ingredients

(1) If the preservative is BHA, BHT or Ethozyquin, Out is definitely out! (BHA and BHT still have insufficient safety reports on animals, and even veterinarians do not recommend their use. As for the preservative Ethozyquin, it has been banned from use in human food. )

(2) Try to buy dry cat food that uses natural preservatives, such as vitamins C, E, rosemary oil, etc.

(3) Certain ingredients, such as fish pieces and some vitamin and mineral mixture ingredients, require separate preservative treatment. Vitamin and mineral mixture ingredients often use chemical preservatives, so the ingredient list may include more than A preservative, please look carefully.

4. Look at the nutritional analysis (Guaranteed Analysis)

(1) Basically, there are different cat foods of different brands.There are different nutritional ratios. Before purchasing, you should understand the condition of your cat’s body before making a choice. For example, if your cat is thin, you can choose some cat food with a higher proportion of protein (Protein) and fat (Fat).

5. See special needs

(1) Each cat’s physical condition is different, and some cats may have special needs (such as veterinary prescription cat food), which must be taken into consideration when purchasing.

(3) Nowadays, cat food is becoming more and more diversified. Regardless of whether your cat has such needs (such as anti-urinary stones, anti-tartar, anti-allergy), cat food vendors will also sell advertisements to make you aware of the need. The need for this cat food has been confirmed, but whether your cat has these needs and whether the cat food can achieve the effects described in the advertisement or label, please consider carefully before purchasing.
