Choosing the Right Cat Food选择正确的食物猫
As all cat owners know, a feline can be a wonderful addition to any family.作为业主所有的猫都知道,猫除了可以向任何一个美妙的家庭. One of the most basic aspects of cat ownership is proper health care for the cat.其中最基本的方面是正确的保健所有制猫猫. Health care for a cat encompasses a wide array of vaccine shots, flea protection, vet visits, medications, and even proper exercise.保健猫包含各种疫苗镜头,跳蚤保护,审核探访药品甚至正当行使.
However, the most important aspect of cat health is also often overlooked.不过,最重要的一个方面,也是经常被忽略的猫生. People spend hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars over the lifetime of a cat to keep it healthy, but most cat owners don’t pay nearly enough attention to choosing the right cat food .人们花费数百小时的寿命超过十万美元一只猫怕它健康但多数业主不付将近猫重视选择正确的猫食品.
The right cat food is absolutely essential to a healthy, happy cat.猫食物的权利是完全必要的健康、快乐的猫.
But what is the best cat food for your cat?但你是最好的食物猫猫? While each cat will have slightly different nutritional needs, there are some general rules that must be considered when looking for cat food.虽然每个猫会略有不同的营养需求,还有一些一般性规则时,要考虑寻找食物的猫.
First of all, cats (like their human owners) need a high quality diet.首先,猫(如人力业主)需要高质量的饮食. This means the best types of protein, fats, carbs, and the less preservatives and chemical additives, the better.这意味着最好的蛋白质类型、脂肪、carbs、防腐剂和化学添加剂较少,愈快愈好. Most of the research available online does not compare specific brands of cat food, as much as specific ingredients to feed your cat, and which to stay away from!大部分的比较研究上网不特定品牌的猫食品高达养活你的猫的具体成分,而远离!
Cats need a high protein diet.猫需要高蛋白饮食. Wild cats are very carnivorous, and cats derive a great deal of their nutritional needs from protein.野猫都很食虫、猫汲取了大量的营养需要来自蛋白质. House cats, while not wild, still have many of the same nutritional needs as their wild feline ancestors.猫房子,而不是野生,还有许多同样的营养需要野生猫作为自己的祖先. So, the most important ingredient in any cat food is protein.因此,最重要的成份是蛋白质的食物有猫.
Carbohydrates are also an important part of a cats diet, though not as important as protein.碳水化合物也是一个重要组成部分猫的饮食,虽然不是那么重要蛋白质. Cats really should derive the majority of their nutritional needs from protein, so cat foods that are high in carbohydrates may not necessarily be the best for them.猫真的要他们汲取营养需要大部分来自蛋白所以猫就是高碳水化合物的食物,不一定是最好的.
Interestingly enough, many of the premium brands of cat food, such as Eukanuba and Innova offer exactly what most cats need, and aren’t necessarily more expensive in the long run.有意思的是,许多品牌的猫补食品例如eukanuba和猫Innova公司提供最需要的是什么,而不一定是价格昂贵的长远发展. This is because high end cat foods need a smaller serving amount than the low end cat foods to give a cat all the nutrients they need to be satisfied and healthy.这是因为猫食品要高完职金额较小的低端比猫食品给猫全部营养需要得到满足和健康.
When comparing a premium brand such as Eukanuba, to a lower cost brand such as Purina, they cost difference for the recommended serving size is only a nickel a day.相比溢价品牌如eukanuba,以较低的成本,如梨品牌、他们的成本差异,只是大小推荐现任镍一天. Furthermore, because a cat will eat less of the high end cat food, their waste will be reduced.此外,由于猫会少吃高完猫的食物,它们将减少浪费. This can cut down on the frequency of litter replacement and litter box related chores.这可以减少更换频率,垃圾垃圾箱相关劳务.
Another aspect of choosing the right cat food to be considered is the quality of the protein in the food.另一个选择正确猫被视为是对食品质量的蛋白质食物. Because of the way many pet food companies describe the meat in the food, it can be difficult to figure out exactly what the difference between “chicken flavored”, and “chicken dinner” is.由于许多宠物食品公司的方式描述肉类食品,也难以看出什么区别"鸡味"、"鸡晚餐".
Food that contains “chicken meal” can only be made from the skin, flesh, and bones only.食品含有"鸡餐",只能从皮肤、肌肉、骨骼. This is really the best type of protein for a cat.这真是最好的一类蛋白质猫. Food that has “meat byproducts” can contain nearly any animal parts, and are of lower quality than “chicken meal”.食物有"肉类副产品"几乎可以包含任何动物零部件、低质量比"鸡肉饭". Food that is “chicken flavored” only has to taste like chicken, but may not contain any animal meat at all.食品即"鸡味"只喜欢吃鸡肉,但不得含有任何动物肉类可言. Also, chicken is generally better than beef for cats.同时,鸡肉比一般牛肉猫.
And it goes without saying, preservatives, as well as artificial colors, should be avoided whenever possible.而不言而喻,防腐剂以及人工色素,应尽可能避免. Although specific research is lacking on this subject, we do know that preservatives and artificial colors can have a negative impact on human health.虽然在这方面缺乏具体的研究,我们知道防腐剂、人工色素可对人体健康有负面影响. It is only logical that cats will also be negatively affected by artificial colors and preservatives in their cat food.这是顺理成章的猫也将产生不利影响人工色素、防腐剂的食品猫.
With the vast selection of cat food on the market, it is easy to be intimidated and just pull the cheapest variety off of the shelf.猫食物的选择与广大的市场,很容易被吓倒,只是拉过最便宜的货架品种. Just remember what’s good for your cat and read the labels.只记得有什么好猫,你看标签. Always remember, a little research can go a long way when it come to the choosing the right cat food for the health and well being of your cat.永远记住,一个小小的研究可以大大何时来选择适当食物猫为您的健康及福祉猫.
