Cat Nutrition

A healthy life for your cat, starts with the right food

To give your cat or kitten the best possible chance at a happy, healthy, long life, proper nutrition is essential, which is why deciding what to feed your feline friend is one of the most important decisions you will make.

The nutrients obtained from food is used as a source of energy, necessary for your cat’s health, growth and wellbeing. Cats are born carnivores and need meat in their diet to obtain protein so they can maintain flexibility and muscle mobility. By choosing quality food from a reputable brand, your cat will get all the nutrients they need.
