How to feed frozen and dried cats

Frozen and dried cats can be fed directly as a snack or mixed with cat food before feeding. It is recommended to feed twice or three times a week, try not to combine with canned cat food, and if combined, do so in moderation. Frozen and dried cats are high-protein foods, which can put a large burden on cats' organs such as the liver and pancreas. Do not feed frozen and dried cats long-term or at every meal.

Feeding frozen and dried quails

It is recommended to feed about two frozen and dried quails each time. Frozen and dried quails are rich in nutrition, containing low protein and amino acids, and are suitable for cats with malnutrition and low spirits. After the freeze-drying process, the quails become crispy and easier to chew, and the fat content is greatly reduced, making them suitable for overweight cats.

The dangers of excessive frozen and dried food consumption

Excessive consumption of frozen and dried cats can cause indigestion and enteritis. Long-term frequent consumption of frozen and dried cats may lead to picky eating, dislike of main food, and thus cause malnutrition due to a single nutrient intake. The gastrointestinal function will also decrease, and symptoms such as long-term soft stools or repeated diarrhea may occur. Eating a moderate amount of frozen and dried cats at each meal does not harm them.

Feeding precautions

Pay attention to the daily feeding amount and food hygiene. If the cat mainly eats cat food, make sure it gets enough water. If the cat is overly picky about food, occasionally switch to another type of food to prevent future difficulty in adapting to new foods. In multi-cat households, each cat may have different eating habits, so pay attention to each cat's eating situation. Never feed dog food to cats, as cats and dogs have different nutritional needs. If cats are fed dog food long-term, they may suffer from insufficient taurine intake, leading to blindness, heart disease, reproductive disorders, and other issues.
