Feeding a high quality dog or cat food will add years to your pet's
life and reduce the chances of developing many common health problems.
This article will help you identify and choose the best diet for your
furry companion.
How do you know what dog/cat food is right? For many the choice is a
homemade diet. If you have the time and the resources, I agree that
this is the preferred way to go. This is usually the best, and
occasionally the only choice for animals with multiple food allergies.
The choice is yours whether to go cooked or raw, with bones or
without.
Basically, a homemade diet should consist of 40-60% meat for dogs,
60%-90% for cats, 20-50% vegetables (dogs, or 10%-40% for cats), and
the rest, optionally, grains. The choice within each category is vast,
and depends on your budget, availability, and what the dog or cat
prefers. Often allergies to certain foods will determine the diet.
Each dog and cat is unique and what is best for one may not work well
for another. Feeding a variety of foods is the best way to provide all
or most of the nutrients that your pet needs....
