My cat has a small appetite and often doesn't finish his canned food. Half-eaten cans are easy to spoil in the fridge and can easily absorb other flavors. Now everything I cook tastes like cat food! What can I do? Today, I'll tell you how to protect your cat's food.
First, go buy a can lid; they're readily available online. Just close it. There are many different sizes available, so you're sure to find one that fits you. Therefore, before buying, it's best to keep a few cans your baby usually eat from, to avoid buying one that's too big or too small. They generally cost five or ten yuan each. Canned food is not recommended for babies under four months old.
Secondly, if you must feed them cat food, it's advisable to mix a small amount of canned cat food with rice before feeding them. Canned cat food is high in energy and protein, much like the large meals people eat during the Spring Festival; frequently feeding them this directly may cause indigestion. Carbohydrates like rice, on the other hand, are beneficial for a cat's growth.
Another point to note is that feeding kittens under three months old canned food or simple meat can easily cause indigestion. Because their digestive organs are very delicate and lack sufficient digestive enzymes, poor digestion can lead to diarrhea. It's advisable to give them some lactase to regulate their gastrointestinal function (it's best to keep lactase on hand).
