Getting Cats to Eat: It is More Than Pouring Food In A Bowl
Tuesday, May 14, 2024
Proper nutritional management is one of the most important factors in maximizing health, performance, and longevity in cats, in addition to managing disease conditions. Proper nutrition and care throughout a cat’s life maximizes health, longevity, and quality of life. Domestic cats and other members of the superfamily Feloidea are strict or obligate carnivores. This difference from dogs is supported by specific behavioral, anatomic, physiologic, and metabolic adaptations of cats to a strictly carnivorous diet. This presentation will investigate the unique nutritional needs of cats. The veterinary healthcare team should be the preferred, expert source of the best nutritional information for pets. This session will review the physiology and behavior of feeding cats, along with tips to ensure cats are getting the nutrients they need.
