What Not to Feed Your Cats



It's important that everyone knows what to feed their cat(s) but it's even more important to know what not to feed them. Here is a list of a few things that can be poisonous or harmful to your little fuzzy friends...

*Onions & Garlic - the substances that are in both of these can cause Anemia in your cat
*Green Tomatoes & Raw Potatoes - these can cause lower gastrointestinal problems
*Milk - if your cat is lactose intolerant which many are, it can cause stomach problems. Cats do not need milk.
*Chocolate - just like dogs this is very toxic for cats as well. They can get chocolate toxicity which has many severe side effects.

These are just a few types of food that come to mind to keep your cat healthy. You really shouldn't be feeding your cat human food as it is. There are so many foods to fit different needs for every cat that are nutritious and won't harm them.

Cat Health

It's a good idea to do a little research if you are bringing a new kitten or cat into your home. You don't want to miss any of the important stuff like vaccinations to prevent them from getting life threatening diseases, maintaining a healthy diet with the right formula and regular check-ups.



Your cats oral health is just as important as anything else so introducing the toothbrush to them at a young age may be beneficial to the both of you.
Cats need their teeth brushed just like we do.
