If you are following me for a little
while now, you will know, that I am craaazy cat lady! I own 2 furry trouble makers; Maru, 2 month old white kitten and Mia; a 2 year old brown and ginger moggy. When I got them, I knew
nothing. I didn’t how to feed them, what litter to buy, where to buy cat food or kitten food.
I often see people sharing their cute photos of their new kittens and I wonder if
they actually aware of how to properly feed and look after you newly kitten and
later cat?? –yes they grow! Even If we wish they would stay so cute and small forever
😉 I thought I would share some information’s I have learned over the past 2
years, so you won’t make the same mistakes I’ve made.

Spring is the time when cats are making love;)and new stunning kittens are born therefore I have created the 5 simple steps guide to make your new kittens and even existing cats happy and healthy!
Feeding!
This is one of the most important part.
Giving your little four paws the right food and nutrition’s can not only help them
grow stronger but also you will avoid future veterinary cost when they become
ill! There are few rules when buying a cat food!

1.
Read the etiquette! Honestly! I know, I
probably sound like your gran now but knowing the ingredients is a key factor !
You want Minimum 40% of meat! That’s the rule. Also check calcium, fibres and fat contain.

2.
No grains, cereals or loads of rice! This
is just carbs! It doesn’t fill your cat stomach properly and makes them hungry
after short period. Now you know why your cat is meowing every half an hour 😉 Also
grain free can sometimes be swapped for high carbohydrates supplements like
potatoes etc. check that out!

3.
Ditch supermarket food! Unless rule nr.1!
Also, if the source of meat is unknown, or the labels shows mostly 4-10% of
meat! Just check what type chemicals and any other crap they putting in to fill
the cans!

4.
Wet food. There are multiple opinions
whether just wet or just dry food should be given but I prefer to give them
both of it! Some of the foods like Applaws have two types of wet! One, is the
full diet with all nutrition’s like theirs pate and some are just 100% natural fillets but it does not contain enough fats and fibres etc and is more
like a treat so I would think to mix that with complete food like the pate
etc..

Dry food. Again, the same rule apply, min 40-50% but I actually buy with 75% or higher. When I
introduced Canagan that was gifted to me by www.petshop.co.uk that
has 75% of meat and 25% (Perfect combination) my cats don’t want anything else!
This is one of the best foods ever!

Kittens. Forget the pretty images of
people giving cow milks to kittens. It’s is actually very unhealthy to your
cat! It can irritate stomach and cause diarrhoea . I give my trouble makers
lacto-free time to time as treat! Kitten milk is good but for the first week or
two and try to introduce normal kitten wet & dry food in mean time. Switch
to water as soon as they start eat normally! I strongly recommend nature menus
it has over 70% of natural meat! No crap in it! Again, this was gifted to me by
the lovely www.petshop.co.uk ! Aren’t they fab?!
Maru loved it and I could see visible difference in his coat!

If you have loads of time, you can feed
your cat homemade food like cooked chicken breast or just raw meats(read more
about BARF). I am very little experienced with that so I won’t advise much
here. Just remember never give your cats cooked bones. They split and broke, so it can spike your cats stomach! Eww!! Danger! Is good to give your cat raw chicken
wing as chewing on that they can clean their teeth! Also, separate eggs with
white and serve your cat the yolk (never whites) for super shiny coat!

Don’t always trust vets opinions. They
can sometimes get commissions on food. Even if your vet recommend food just
read your label and decide yourself. There are plenty well known and
recommended foods but if you actually start reading a label its only shows as
‘’protein and vegetable’ ’contain. I
have no clue of what type protein? It could be cows feet? or meat that didn’t
passed the test for being human? We can only guess! I like food where they
shows me what I am giving to my cats! I want to know they have liver, lungs of
cow or chicken heart etc.

Also, Try to balance it well. I like to
give my cats apart from standard beef or chicken cans, fish as well, real or
canned tuna or any other type of fish.
Just be careful not to give them too much tuna, it can be dangerous for them! I
know weird! It is only fish isn’t?Again, here Applaws are good.

closer! I was lucky that www.petshop.co.uk

guys, tricky 😉 !

Litter
Here, I just wanted to tell you to be careful especially for these who just got new kitten. Kittens tends to eat
litter. When you have clumping cement style ones, these can be danger if kitten
eat it! Also the chemicals mixed with my cat urine nearly made a hole in my
cat litter box. I would recommend natural paper one (although can be smelly quick)
or my best ever-wooden one! It can be little messy so I would recommend to get
rubber mat placed in front of litter but it’s clumping so you can just throw it
away to toilet! No dramas! Here, again buying online comes handy. We all know
how heavy it can be! And saves the pennies! Think of hooded litter. Cats likes
their privacy, often that’s the reason on doing their toilet behind the Tv’s or
other corners! I have this one, isn’t great? Love Simon’s cat, who doesn’t?;)

Plants!
I often see usually in bloggers posting pictures
of certain pot plants and cat in background. I am not sure if they actually
aware that thee plants can easily kill, poison or make seriously ill their little
ones? Here is a list of absolute no no for cats owners! So, think twice before
the pretty blog photoshoot with Tulips or Spring Hyacinth…Lillie’s are
extremely toxic for cats did you know that? Find here are full list of danger plants
to your cats!

The Best wet cat food is the best foods because it has all the needed nutrients that our cat needs. The nutrients are well-balanced with all the nutrients like vegetables, fruits, proteins, and carbohydrates. Just like humans, our cats must have a balanced diet that requires meticulous selection of foods. With too many foods that you can buy produced by new cat food manufacturers, surely you will get too overwhelmed about it. Don’t be mislead with the packaging as well, you need to check the labels like the nutritional facts. From there you can weigh in whether you consider buying it or not. Also from there you can check if the food contains ingredients that can trigger allergies.
Best Wet Cat Food :I have never had a problem with a cat vomiting from wet food. I have used the Natures Logic, Natures Organics, Wellness, Avoderm, Natural Balance. I also make my own cat food with raw meat, made from chicken and turkey. So it surprises me that your cat is reacting that way. I would be less surprised if you were using some of the less desirable foods such as Fancy Feast, Science Diet, etc.
I'll keep my fingers crossed for all participants as unfortunately as a dog owner I could not part in your giveaway. Great idea, congratulations!
This would be awesome to win for the cat shelter I volunteer at! Thanks for all the great information and tips! :]
Aniu – pięknie i naturalnie wypadasz przed kamerą! Więcej kręć! Więcej tematów Tobie bliższych. Nawet idź w miasto 🙂
U nas karmienie kota zdefiniowane jest jego schorzeniami – tak, tak to wiekowy kot i już się zaczyna… najważniejsze nerki i pod te narządy ma dobraną karmę. Także u nas kot śmieci nie zjada, nie je też ulubionych rybek. Ale za to czuje się dobrze i nic narazie mu nie dolega 🙂
Pozdrawiam!
Your kitty cats are so pretty!
Congrats on your first vlog! I start bookblogging a little while ago, I didnt know there was a community for booktubers! Anyway, great cat tips!
Your kitties are so cute! These are great tips for a newbie cat owner! Thx!
I more of a dog lover myself, but cat's are cute too. Dog's are more needy than cats as well. I think that's why I'm drawn to them. Great Post Anna! 🙂
My babies are just too spoiled sometimes! Thanks for the great post! also i did my first Vlog a few weeks ago and i was so confused at first and it took my while! LOL
These two are spoiled all the time! Oh I really want to see it then! 🙂
