Making homemade kitten food can be time consuming. Lets face it; there is nothing simpler then opening a bag or can and pouring it into a bowl. When you make your own kitten food you will have to set some time aside every two to three days to prepare the food.

Making your own kitten food will cost more money in the beginning. A kitten eats uncooked meat and veggies.

It will really cost you less money in the long run to feed your cats homemade food. When your kitten gets the right amount of nutrition he will be sick less often. That means that you will spend less on vet bills. You still need to get your friend his shots but the sick vet bills will be greatly reduced. Your kitten will also eat less when he is properly feed.

You also need to make sure you do your homework. Cats have allergies to some of our food and some of are food is even poison to them.

Cats are lactose intolerant. Milk will not kill your kitten but it will make him feel terrible. Tomatoes, onions, and garlic are poison to cats. They should not eat anything that is in the same food groups as those.

Just like anything else, after you learn the rules and follow them, they become second nature so you won’t even have to reckon about them.

Although I  know how vital what to feed my cat, the most hard question we(my cat and me) have faced was “how to swich to healthier food“, such homemade cat food from commercial cat food. And what are the excellent recipes for that? And feeding guidelines?

After unsucessful trial, left over homemade cat food for a couple of days, I found this site, http://www.catinfo.org a website run by a vet who studies feline nutrition. The sites has the recipe the site owner makes and feedson to her own cats, and I’ve been using it for nearly two years now and my cat is in wonderful health. The excellent thing is you’ll need less food because there aren’t any fillers in the food, and your cats will produce less waste for the same reason(saves toilet sand!). At first it may look more expensive, but it really is cheaper in the long run in so many ways. Less vet visit, less waste. Check it out!
