Cat food

Cats require a diet that includes both wet food and dry food .

The importance of wet food lies in its ability to provide additional hydration . Since cats tend not to drink enough water, wet food helps compensate for this lack of liquid intake.

A mixed diet , which combines both wet food and dry food, is an excellent way to ensure that your cat receives both the necessary nutrients and hydration.

At Breedna, we understand these needs and offer a range of products suitable for every preference and requirement. Our feeds are formulated to provide complete and balanced nutrition for your pet.

A tip from our experts: Always make sure your cat has easy access to fresh water to maintain adequate hydration.

When choosing the right food for your cat , it is essential to consider several key factors that will ensure you are providing the best nutrition possible.

The three main aspects to take into account are the age of the cat, any pathology it may have and its special needs:

1. Age of the cat : Age is a crucial factor, as cats require different nutrients at each stage of their life. For example, baby kittens need food rich in protein and calories to support their rapid growth and development . On the other hand, adult cats require a balanced diet to maintain their general health and prevent obesity. For older cats, a feed that is easy to digest and supports joint and kidney health is important.
2. Pathologies : If your cat suffers from any pathology, such as kidney disease, diabetes or food allergies, the type of feed you choose must adapt to these conditions. For example, cats with kidney disease may need a feed with controlled protein and phosphorus content, while diabetic cats may benefit from a feed with a low glycemic index.
3. Special needs: Some cats have special dietary needs, such as food sensitivities or specific requirements due to their physical condition, such as neutering . In these cases, it is important to choose a feed that adapts to these needs. For example, hypoallergenic food is ideal for cats with sensitivities or allergies, and food for sterilized cats helps control weight and maintain urinary health.

No, cats should not eat dog food regularly.

Although not occasionally harmful, dog food does not meet the specific nutritional needs of cats.

Cats require a high protein diet and need essential nutrients such as taurine and vitamin A, which are not present in adequate amounts in dog food.

Feeding cats dog food on a regular basis can lead to nutritional deficiencies and health problems. It is always best to provide cats with a diet specifically formulated for their unique needs.

To change a cat's diet, it is important to do it gradually to avoid digestive problems.

Start by mixing a small amount of the new feed with the current food, progressively increasing the amount of the new feed and decreasing the amount of the old feed over a period of 7 to 10 days .

Observe your cat during the change to make sure he accepts the new food well and shows no signs of digestive upset.

If your cat is especially sensitive or reluctant to change, this transition period can be extended to a few weeks .

It is always advisable to consult with your veterinarian before making significant changes to your cat's diet, especially if he or she has special health conditions.
