Veterinarian-Recommended Nutrition
Properly feeding your cat is a powerful everyday way to impact their lifelong health. However, selecting the “best” food for your cat, determining the correct portions, and convincing your cat to eat it can be a challenge.
The Crescenta Cañada Cat Clinic team can help demystify feline nutrition and provide practical advice on what and how much to feed your cat.
The Benefits of Proper Nutrition for Cats
Feeding your cat a portion-controlled, complete and balanced, veterinarian-recommended diet provides overwhelming advantages that affect every aspect of your cat’s life, such as:
- Ensuring normal growth and development
- Promoting greater vitality
- Supporting a healthier skin and coat
- Maintaining a healthy body condition
- Encouraging mobility and better joint health
- Boosting immune health
- Decreasing stress
- Fostering faster recovery from illness, surgery, or injury
Inadequate nutrition exposes cats to life-limiting health problems such as obesity, heart and liver issues, and diabetes. Take the first step toward a healthier future for your cat by asking your veterinarian for a nutritional recommendation.
Therapeutic Diets for Feline Health Conditions
Veterinary therapeutic diets are specially formulated, research-backed nutrition designed to support cats with certain feline health conditions. These diets are carefully formulated and tested to ensure optimal nutrition while improving health function. Your veterinarian may recommend a therapeutic diet if your cat suffers from conditions such as:
Obesity
Arthritis
Hyperthyroidism
Kidney disease
Dental disease
Allergies
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or other digestive issues
