What do American Curl kittens eat? There are certain differences between kittens and adult cats. The physique of kittens is not as good as that of adult cats. When raising them, attention should be paid to proper feeding, so that kittens can be healthier. growing up.
In addition to cat food, it is recommended that kittens eat some meat food, such as ham sausage, etc. every week, but the amount should not be too large. A few small pieces as big as a fingernail will be OK. If you want to feed him beef (we do know that some cat owners feed beef to their kittens, and the kittens grow extra strong), you should chew the beef first and then spit it out to the kitten. Because the kitten's digestive system lacks an enzyme, and this enzyme can be provided through human saliva. This is beneficial to the kitten’s digestion and absorption.
Kittens can already control their food intake. If you leave cat food in the food bowl, they will eat it themselves when they are hungry. However, it is still recommended to feed once a day in the morning and evening. If possible, it is best to put away food after meals, especially those that are easy to spoil. In addition, attention should be paid to feeding: timing, quantity, and fixed point.
Timing: Feed at a fixed time every day to develop good eating habits. Cat owners also need to be persistent. You can't remember when to feed the cat.
Quantity: Don’t eat too much or too little. As the cat's age increases, the kitten's appetite gradually increases during a certain period of time (usually three or four months old), and remains stable after eight months or more.
Fixed points: The cat’s food bowl and water basin should be placed in a fixed place in the room and should not be moved around.
Don’t scare the cat when it eats, otherwise it may cause anorexia.
As for canned cats, we usually mix it with rice and give it to them. Because canned cats are high-energy and high-protein foods, just like the big meals people eat during the Spring Festival, feeding them directly every time may cause indigestion. And carbohydrates like rice are good for the growth of cats.
Taboo: Never give milk to kittens! Many cats lack the enzyme to digest and absorb milk in their intestines. Drinking milk can cause indigestion and diarrhea! Moreover, the ingredients of milk and cat milk are also different.
Prepare drinking water for kittens at any time (cannot use tap water!) and change it every day.
