Cats Are Obligate Carnivores
Unlike dogs, cats require animal protein as their primary nutrition source. A good cat food should list meat (chicken, fish, beef) as the first ingredient.
Wet vs Dry Food
Wet food provides higher moisture content โ important for kidney health and urinary tract function. Dry food is convenient and promotes dental health. Many vets recommend a combination.
What to Avoid
Avoid foods with excessive fillers (corn, wheat, soy), artificial preservatives, and high carbohydrates. Never feed onions, garlic, chocolate, or grapes โ these are toxic to cats.
