Nowadays sticky cats have become one of many people’s favorite pets, and many partners are becoming little cat slaves to their own lovely cats, and like to give all the delicious things to their cats. It is also because of this behavior, many domestic cats today have become round, although fat cats feel very good, but in consideration of the cat’s own health, owners must reasonably control the amount of food and the right amount of exercise situation.
There is a lot to be said for the feeding of cats, the time and number of feedings should be controlled within a reasonable range, so how many times a day is it appropriate to feed a cat?
1. Healthy cats have requirements for food, the number of feedings should not be too many, the cat’s sense of satiety is not very obvious, if the owner does not control its feeding amount, it is likely to develop a bad habit, the food in the cat’s food bowl is not finished, but the cat runs to the owner’s feet to ask about the food eaten, or it appears that the cat has been eating, which leads to the occurrence of gastroenteritis. So the feeding amount is about two to three times a day, the best is three times.
2. The feeding time should also be noted, do not just start feeding the cat an hour apart, but should be controlled to feed once every 3-4 hours, which can also ensure that the cat has digested most of the food before eating, further reducing the burden on the cat’s gut.
3. Some cat food rich in nutrients is more suitable for breeding, in the selection of cat food can also carefully observe its nutritional composition, and then according to the cat’s own situation, for example, to make the hair become soft and shiny, you can take some with less salt, with vitamin E and so on, for the growth of cats will play a better effect.
4. While adjusting the right amount for the cat, it also depends on its age. The amount of food for kittens is not too demanding because the requirements and portion of food for kittens are not too big, and if it is a small milk cat you can feed some diluted goat milk powder, about 4-5 times a day.
If you want to discuss how to match the specific amount of food, it is also necessary to decide according to the actual situation, and partners can always pay attention to how much their cats eat at a meal and then distribute it, after all, the situation of each cat is different.
