Support Our Locally Owned Pet Store with Your Purchase of Dry 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 superior than the others. All About Dogs & Cats in Springfield, MO can help reduce the confusion. We offer a variety of cat foods and can assist you in finding the one that is perfect for your precious pet.

Your cat is a hunter, descended from a long line of hunters. Wild felines naturally ate a wide selection of nutritious food, based upon what they could snag. But your domestic cat counts on you to feed them. All About Dogs & Cats 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 could be chicken, beef, lamb, fish, or eggs. They need fats to supply 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 certain 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 big difference 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 described as "chicken dinner" (or chicken formula) can be anywhere between 25 and 95 percent chicken.

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

Try to find the nutritional adequacy statement, which explains whether the food is meant for an adult cat or a kitten.
