Kittens – The Call of the Wild
There’s nothing like the energy and fun that comes with a new kitten. Some may in fact, refer to kittens as wild. That’s because they innately are.
Did you know? Cats naturally prefer to eat foods that are similar in nutrient composition to what they would eat in the wild. In fact, based on a large number of studies, The Waltham Centre for Pet Nutrition discovered that cats modify their eating habits, consistently selecting diets rich in protein and low in carbohydrate, to achieve a preferred macronutrient profile or “ideal nutrient balance.”
-
Cats have a protein requirement that is 2-3 times higher than that of humans and dogs
-
Food with the ideal nutrient balance is in line with your kitten’s natural food preference
Do you really know what your kitten should be eating?
-
Protein helps support rapidly growing muscles
-
High protein and low carbohydrates are the ideal nutrient balance that kittens need for optimal growth to support a healthy metabolism for the rest of their lives
Cats are more sensitive than dogs to carbohydrates, which can raise blood sugar levels after they’re eaten. In fact, feeding your kitten food with controlled carbohydrates minimizes glycemic response compared to food high in carbohydrates.
