Sometimes they get to share beef trimmings with me.
If I had deep pockets, I would be able to feed them with high quality human grade canned cat food. The cheaper ones contain fillers and gelling agents (aka carbohydrates).
Cats are obligate carnivores and they have to eat meat although we know that people feed them with all sorts of food even rice and vegetables.
I get my supply from Daco Petsmart at Damansara Utama. This brand, Loveabowl (70g), costs RM3.68 (member price). Regular price is RM4.60.
But that was just an appetizer for her LOL! So I let her have some more food from the group meal of chicken and liver.
Update on my sauerkraut. This is day four of fermentation. Every day in the morning and evening, I open the cover and push the content down to submerge the vegetables under the brine. The smell was wonderful.
Hello dear friend, yes indeed, cats are carnivores and need meat! I have heard terrible stories of vegetarians who tried to make their felines vegetarian and this either seriously harmed the cat's health or killed them. Very sad.
ReplyDeleteThe cat food cans are attractive, and this sweet orange Tabby cat was happy enough to devour the food!
Although I absolutely love cabbage, I have never tried sauerkraut. Not sure if I would like it.
Thank you so much for sharing, and I hope Lotus is O.K., I haven't seen her around. If you don't mind, please give her my best wishes. :)
