Buy Bone Broths for Cats in Bridgeport

How do you know your cat is receiving the nutrition they require? You're bombarded with cat food commercials, each claiming that their product is superior than the others. Natural Pet Outlet in Bridgeport, CT can help reduce the confusion. We carry a number of cat foods and can assist you in finding the one that is right for your precious pet.

Your cat is a hunter, descended from a long line of hunters. Wild cats naturally ate a wide assortment of nutritious food, based upon what they could capture. But your domestic cat counts on you to feed them. Natural Pet Outlet has all the foods that will keep them happy and healthy.

What Nutrients Does Your Cat Need?

For starters, your cat is a carnivore. They need to have meat in some form. This can be chicken, beef, lamb, fish, or eggs. They need fats to supply energy and help absorb vitamins like A, D, B1, B2, B3, and B6. In addition, some cat foods include carbohydrates, which are digestible and provide energy.

Reading a Cat Food Label

Cat food companies are required to put particular information on their labels, such as ingredients in descending order of weight, and guaranteed analysis, which tells you the minimum and maximum amount of nutrients like fats, protein, and fiber.

Understand food descriptions. There's a big difference between "chicken cat food" and "cat food with chicken." Chicken cat food must be 95 percent chicken, while cat food with chicken can have as little as 3 percent. Food called "chicken dinner" (or chicken formula) can be anywhere between 25 and 95 percent chicken.

Labels include feeding instructions, but they're a guideline and not a "one size fits all." Your vet's recommendations takes priority.

Try to find the nutritional adequacy statement, which reveals whether the food is intended for an adult cat or a kitten.
