Natural Cat Food: Why You Should Be Using Natural Cat Food

By Christine Pinkston

The first reason you should use natural cat food is because the food you buy at the store is generally lacking nutrition wise. When your cat gets the nutrition his body needs his life span doubles.

So, essentially your cat is starving even though they eat food every day. Using natural cat food lets your cat get the nutrition he needs to stay strong, active, and healthy.

The best way to prevent vet bills is to make sure your cat gets the proper nutrition. A well fed cat gets fewer preventable illnesses then cats suffering from malnutrition. That means you get to spend way less on vet bills!

When you feed your cat natural cat food he won't have many of the problems other cats have because he will be healthy with a good immune system.

Another thing along the lines of saving money while giving your cat the proper nutrition is that when a cat get the proper nutrition he will stop eating sooner. Cats do not comfort eat like humans. After your cat is used to receiving the proper nutrition you will only need to feed him once a day.

The third reason to use natural cat food is because you know what is in it. When you make your cat natural food you know what your cat is getting. One thing to know is that cats need a lot of taurine. Without taurine cats systems can not function properly. Raw meat is a good source of taurine.

Some of the commercial pet food companies get their meat from dead, dying, or diseased animals. Examples are road kill, dogs and cats that are put down at the pound (the poison does not cook out so it is present in your cat's food), and diseased cows. So not only does your cat get no nutrition from most commercial food but it also causes them harm. Take note that while some do use these for meat sources, not all do.

The safest way to feed your cat is to use natural cat food. - 29953
