CATDOLL : Can cats eat cornmeal?

Cats can eat corn paste, but they should be fed in small amounts and it is not recommended to feed cats for a long time. Because corn is crude fiber, cats can supplement trace elements such as calcium and iron by eating corn paste, and it can also promote intestinal peristalsis of cats and reduce constipation problems. However, cats have weak stomachs, and excessive or long-term consumption of crude fiber foods such as corn paste will cause indigestion and gastrointestinal burden on cats, so it is recommended to eat less.

Things to note when feeding cats:

1. Keep the food dish clean at ordinary times. The leftover food of the cat can be collected and mixed with fresh food and cooked before feeding next time. Do not feed cold food or cold food, which will cause digestive disorders.

2. If you find that your cat has the bad habit of taking food outside the food bowl to eat, you need to discipline it immediately to correct it.

3. The water that cats drink needs to be changed every day. Use purified water or boiled water. Do not use tap water.

4. The cat owner needs to strictly control the cat's diet to prevent the cat from overeating, so as not to hurt the spleen and stomach. If the cat is too fat, it is easy to get sick, so the cat should be allowed to exercise properly.

5. Cats have a higher demand for protein, so you should choose cat food with high protein content.

6. Feed snacks in small amounts. If you feed too much, your cat will lose appetite and even go on a diet.

7. For newborn kittens, it is best to feed them breast milk or goat milk powder, not cow's milk.

8. Feed your cat cat grass regularly and appropriately, because cat grass can supplement fiber, maintain gastrointestinal health, and promote gastrointestinal motility and digestion.

9. Pet cats cannot eat raw fish for a long time, because raw meat contains more parasites and bacteria, which can cause gastrointestinal damage and even infectious diseases.
