The best food for cats

 The best food for cats    

There are two primary sources of food for cats:  the first is commercial cat food, which is generally high in protein and healthy fat.  The second is table food.  However, table food comes with its own set of drawbacks, as it often has a high-calorie content, a high carbohydrate content, or a high-fat content.





Because cats are carnivores, their diet consists of mostly meat, fish, and/or other animals. Meat-based diets are often specified for cats, though fresh meat can also be a part of the diet. These diets supply the correct amount of protein, and they should be a part of the cat’s daily food intake.


The best food for cats includes some food high in fat such as meat, fish, and dairy products. Cats must have a varied diet so they can get all the nutrients they need to stay healthy and strong. They also need to be fed a diet with proteins that are high in quality, such as high-quality commercial cat food, especially those that contain a high-fat content.


Cats are some of the most popular pets in the U.S. according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Although many of us cannot imagine our cats as anything but fluffy, the truth is that not all cats are fluffy!

Some people worry about the environmental impact of eating meat, synthetic or otherwise, but fewer worry about the impact of feeding their cats meat.  In fact, some argue that feeding pets meat is more harmful to the environment than not, where the meat is produced.  What are your thoughts?---
