Support Our Locally Owned Pet Store with Your Purchase of Cat Food for Cats

How do you know your cat is getting the nutrition they need? You're bombarded with cat food commercials, each stating that their product is more effective than the others. Essential Pet LLC in Parker, CO can help reduce the confusion. We carry a wide variety of cat foods and can assist you in choosing the one that is right for your precious pet.

Your cat is a hunter, descended from a long line of hunters. Wild felines naturally ate a wide variety of nutritious food, based upon what they could capture. But your domestic cat counts on you to feed them. Essential Pet LLC has all the foods that will keep them happy and healthy.

What Nutrients Does Your Cat Need?

For starters, your cat is a carnivore. They require meat in some form. This may be chicken, beef, lamb, fish, or eggs. They need fats to provide energy and help absorb vitamins like A, D, B1, B2, B3, and B6. In addition, some cat foods include carbohydrates, which are digestible and provide energy.

Reading a Cat Food Label

Cat food companies are required to put specific information on their labels, such as ingredients in descending order of weight, and guaranteed analysis, which tells you the minimum and maximum amount of nutrients like fats, protein, and fiber.

Understand food descriptions. There's a distinction between "chicken cat food" and "cat food with chicken." Chicken cat food must be 95 percent chicken, while cat food with chicken can have as little as 3 percent. Food referred to as "chicken dinner" (or chicken formula) can be anywhere between 25 and 95 percent chicken.

Labels contain feeding instructions, but they're a guideline and not a "one size fits all." Your vet's advice takes priority.

Search for the nutritional adequacy statement, which reveals whether the food is meant for an adult cat or a kitten.
