Feeding the Highlander cat: doses and frequency of meals

How often should you feed your four-legged friend?

This is a question that needs to be answered if we want the Highlander’s diet to be truly nutritious and healthy.

Generally, the advice is to feed the furry dog ​​twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening.

Alternatively, however, to always keep its energy needs constant, you can decide to divide the cat’s ration into small portions, to be administered during the day.

What is the ideal dose of food to give to the domestic feline every day?

The Highlander cat is predisposed to the accumulation of excess weight. For this reason, the best advice is to contact the veterinarian, who will be able to formulate a nutritional plan that can meet the needs of the animal, without the risk of making him fat.

In general, the amount of wet food to be given to the cat is equal to 40 grams for each kg of the animal’s weight. Once this figure is obtained, simply divide it by 3 to find the correct dose of kibble.

What foods can not miss in the perfect diet for the Highlander cat?

Just like any other domestic cat, this kitty is an obligate carnivore.

With this expression we mean that the animal needs to introduce proteins of animal origin in its diet, from which it draws fundamental substances for its well-being, which its organism is not able to synthesize by itself.

Green light, therefore, for meat and fish. In particular, we will be able to vary between numerous foods such as chicken, beef, turkey, rabbit, sea bass, cod and tuna.


Home or industrial nutrition for the Highlander?

Finally, we just have to answer one last question to identify the perfect Highlander diet: is it better a home or industrial diet?

In the first case, it will be up to us to buy the raw materials and cook them for the pelosetto.

It is therefore a longer and more complex procedure, which allows us to ensure the quality and freshness of the ingredients chosen.

In any case, it is always good to plan the home diet together with the veterinarian. The risk, in fact, is that this type of diet does not provide the Highlander with all the essential nutrients she needs.

To avoid the risk of nutritional deficiencies or the onset of diseases, here is everything you need to know about the health of the Highlader cat.

On the contrary, the industrial diet provides for the administration of ready-made and completely balanced feed for the furry dog.

In this case, however, it is essential to read the nutritional table on the back of the package, to check the composition of the chosen food.
