is your cat getting what they really need?

cats are obligate carnivores, which means their bodies are built to thrive on nutrients from meat—not plants. that's why a diet rich in animal protein is essential for their health.

here's what to know:
• cats still need a small amount of carbs for digestion
• canned food helps with hydration, but portion control is still key
• raw diets? risky and often unbalanced
• check to see if your cat's food meets AAFCO nutritional standards
• ask your vet about therapeutic diets for specific conditions like kidney disease, hyperthyroidism, or diabetes

feeding the right food for your cat's life stage can help them live a longer, healthier life.
