Food for kittens and cats with sensitive digestion

Currently, there is a huge variety of different ready-made cat foods. But at the same time, for animals with digestive problems, the appropriate option should be more carefully selected. Today we will talk about the most popular varieties of feed that can be used in this case.

Most often, digestion problems in cats are associated with the individual intolerance of a certain component contained in cat food. Gluten of corn or wheat often acts as such constituent elements. In addition, the food may contain a considerable amount of chemical additives that are addictive and digestive problems.

In such cases, specialized feed is purchased for kittens and adult cats. They are created taking into account digestive problems and food allergies in animals.

As a protein, only natural components are used without chemical additives.

Currently, manufacturers offer a large number of varieties of specialized cat food. The most common type is dry food.

This dietary variety contains only hypoallergenic components. They also include vitamins, fatty acids and minerals necessary to maintain the health of the animal.

Dry food consists of small granules. They are produced by high pressure and high temperatures. Such food can be made the basis of the cat's diet.

Compared to other species, dry food can be in the animal’s bowl for a long time.However, its quality and nutritional value will not change. Therefore, such food is convenient for those owners who for a long time leave their pets at home alone. It is this kind of food that helps to cleanse plaque from the teeth of an animal.

For the manufacture of specialized dry feed manufacturers can use various types of fish, meat, vegetables and cereals. But water in such a diet is almost completely absent.

Another variety is liquid feed. Often it is mixed with dry. This type is made from frozen raw materials, which are sent for thorough processing.

Industrial meat grinders grind the frozen product, and then process it under the influence of high temperatures, which helps to prevent pathogens from entering the future feed.

On the processing line, the raw materials are turned into a homogeneous mass. Vitamin and mineral supplements, vegetable oils are added to it. Then the mixture is divided into small pieces.

Sauce for food is made separately. At the end, it is mixed with prepared chopped pieces. After that, the food is sent for sterilization.
