Help your cat eat better — optimize their diet and nutrition from home

Cats are obligate carnivores, which means they require a diet that's high in meat (yes, that means real animal protein, not plant-based fillers) to thrive. Proper nutrition helps keep your cat's body in tip-top shape, supports their immune system, and even impacts their behavior and mood! If your cat is feeling sluggish, experiencing digestive issues, or even acting out, it could be a sign that their diet is missing something important. A well-balanced diet can also help prevent a range of health issues, from obesity and diabetes to kidney disease and hairballs. So when it comes to your cat's nutrition, it's not just about filling their bowl—it's about fueling them for a long, healthy, and active life! Here are some key reasons why proper nutrition is essential for your cat: • Supports overall health and immune function • Maintains healthy weight and muscle mass • Promotes healthy skin and a shiny coat • Supports digestive health and reduces hairballs • Helps prevent chronic diseases like diabetes and kidney issues • Provides energy for play and activity • Supports brain health and cognitive function The right diet is truly the foundation of your cat's health and wellbeing throughout their life.

Just like us, cats can run into diet-related challenges. Here are some of the most common issues—and how Telavets can help: • Obesity and Weight Issues: Is your kitty packing on a few extra pounds? Obesity is one of the most common nutrition-related problems in cats. It can lead to serious health issues, like joint problems, diabetes, and even heart disease. If your cat is struggling with weight, it could be due to overeating, not getting enough exercise, or eating the wrong type of food. • Food Sensitivities or Allergies: Some cats have sensitivities or allergies to certain foods, such as chicken, beef, dairy, or grains. If your cat is constantly itching, has digestive issues, or suffers from chronic ear infections, they might have an allergy or intolerance to something in their food. • Lack of Proper Protein: As obligate carnivores, cats need plenty of high-quality animal protein in their diet. If they're not getting enough of it—whether due to a poor-quality food or an unbalanced homemade diet—they might experience muscle loss, lethargy, and even gastrointestinal upset. • Hairballs: All cats groom themselves, but some cats (especially long-haired breeds) are more prone to hairballs. If your cat is vomiting frequently or you're seeing more fur in their coat than in the litter box, they might not be getting the right balance of nutrients to help with healthy digestion and coat maintenance. • Digestive Issues: If your cat is dealing with digestive problems like diarrhea, constipation, or vomiting, it could be due to a poor diet or a sensitivity to certain ingredients. Digestive health is crucial for your cat's overall well-being, and a balanced diet can help support a healthy gut. • Kidney Disease or Other Health Issues: If your cat has a chronic health condition like kidney disease, it's essential to feed them a diet that supports their specific needs. Cats with kidney issues, for example, may require a special low-protein, low-phosphorus diet to prevent further damage.
