Balanced Nutrition is Essential to a Healthy Life for Your Cat
Our house cats depend on us to provide them with what they need to live their best lives. One of the most important needs is to provide your cat meals with balanced nutrition. Providing cat food with balanced nutrition is essential to your cat’s health because both nutrient excesses and deficiencies can lead to health problems. Just like for us, proper nutrition is the basis for a healthy happy life for your cat. And just like us, one food is not the best food for every cat.
Choosing the Best Cat Food For Your Cat
Cat Foods Designed for Your Cat’s Life-stage and Health Conditions
Our Gracey had health issues from the time she was very young. We worked closely with our veterinarians to make sure that we were feeding her food that would help her be happy and healthy for as long as possible. After many tests and the realization she was allergic to most proteins, we were super careful with the food we provided for her. Gracey’s food changed over the years with the help of her doctors. We are grateful for the time we shared with Gracey and that she was happy and healthy most of those years.
Maggie came into our lives after we lost our neighbor Marie. Maggie was brokenhearted from losing Marie and she was overweight. Our veterinarian approved the Hill’s Metabolic Advanced Weight Solution program for her and I am just thrilled to tell you that Maggie almost to her goal weight of 7.9 lbs down from 13.8 lbs when she first came to live with us. With the support and love of Vicki and Kenny, Maggie’s parents, she has become healthy and happy again.
Annie and Mercy do not have any health issues and Eddie is getting along great after the problems with his teeth. Every cat is unique and that is why it is so important to choose the best cat food for each of your cats. We are considering a change in Mercy’s food as he transitions to a senior cat and his nutritional needs begin to change. We will discuss Mercy’s food at his wellness exam next month. Transitioning his cat food will take place gradually to keep the replacement of one food for another as smooth as possible.

There are many options available that meet the needs of cat owners. We provide information that might be helpful to owners that have a special need. There is not one fix for all cats in all situations.
There are many reasons that people choose the food they do for their cats ranging from health issues to budgetary ones. Owners that love their cats do the best they can for them.
I am familiar with both veterinarians as well as many others and read peer reviewed journal articles of current studies and research findings. It is important to remain open to new ideas and perspectives.
It is good for scientists to disagree, challenge and investigate competing evidence.
