CATDOLL : What should cats pay attention to in their diet in winter?

Things to note about cats’ diet in winter:

1. Increase the proportion of meat. In winter, the owner needs to improve the cat's diet structure in time, because the cat's food intake will increase significantly in winter, because they are storing energy for the winter. The owner needs to increase the proportion of meat for the cat appropriately. For example, if the cat used to eat only cat food, now you can add some high-quality fresh food, canned food, and boiled chicken breast. This can increase the nutrition for the cat, ensure their metabolism level, and also increase more protein.

2. Increase the proportion of vitamins. Vitamins are very important for cats because they can help them digest food, improve their immunity, reduce the risk of illness, and make their skin and hair healthier. You can feed your cat some boiled animal livers, such as chicken liver or pork liver, every half a month. Most cats are more receptive to cooked eggs, so you can feed them some.

3. Supplement calcium. When winter comes, the owner should pay special attention to whether the cat has any abnormal conditions, such as whether the legs are weak. If this happens, you need to consult a pet doctor and supplement calcium in a targeted manner to prevent calcium deficiency.

4. Replenish water. Experts say that the recommended daily water intake for cats is 2-3 times the daily dry matter intake. That is to say, if a cat eats 100g of cat food a day, the daily water intake is about 200ml. This is mainly to prevent cats from having loss of appetite and poor digestion due to lack of water.

5. Feed cats at regular times and in fixed quantities. In winter, cats have a greater appetite. At this time, owners should control their food intake. Do not let cats eat and sleep, or eat and sleep, or let them eat too much food. Keeping a regular and fixed amount of food every day, interacting with cats appropriately, and increasing their activity are the best ways to ensure the healthy growth of cats.

6. Others: In terms of food, you can provide more high-quality protein, choose some good cat food, and you can also choose some chicken breast and beef.
