Feeding Your Senior Cat

What keeps cats running? A wholesome and balanced diet that ensures you are in top shape with nutritious ingredients, high-quality meat and fine offal. Which includes doing their typical cat activities every day - from hiding shoelaces to occupying the sofa. Whatever you do. But when it comes to cats of, let's say, advanced age, specific nutrients become important so that they continue to enrich their everyday life in such a lively and charming way. Here you will find tips and information on proper nutrition for senior cats - how their needs change, which food is right and what else you should pay attention to.

Feed your senior cat with a suitable senior product, because it's not just a word on the package. There are good reasons for senior cat food to keep animals healthy.

This is what older cats need

• Senior food is usually fed to a cat from the seventh to tenth year of life.
• Senior cats have special nutritional needs: their appetite is usually lower and they need energy-rich, easily digestible food. This is also important because they are often less mobile. They move less than younger cats, which in some cases can lead to obesity.
• Food for older cats should take into account their special needs and contain high-quality ingredients that are easy to digest and rich in vitamins and minerals. They also need a lower-fat diet that still provides them with all the important healthy fats every day. We cat parents should actually be able to do that for our little purring machines, right?
• At Lily's Kitchen we believe that all pets deserve species-appropriate food. And by that we mean food that - regardless of your cat's age - consists of healthy, natural ingredients as well as high-quality meat and fine offal. This becomes even more important the older your cat gets.
• Older cats may also need foods higher in antioxidants and vitamins to protect their bodies from the harmful effects of free radicals.
  
  

As your cat gets older, you should pay more attention to its care: the animals often no longer get into hard-to-reach places so easily, which means that mats can form . Therefore, brush your cat regularly
