Buy Grain-Free Food for Cats in Georgetown

How do you know your cat is receiving the nutrition they require? You're bombarded with cat food commercials, each stating that their product is more effective than the others. Tail Waggins Dog Bakery in Georgetown, TX can help reduce the confusion. We stock a wide array of cat foods and can assist you in choosing the one that is just right for your precious pet.

Your cat is a hunter, descended from a long line of hunters. Wild cats naturally ate a wide selection of nutritious food, based on what they could capture. But your domestic cat counts on you to feed them. Tail Waggins Dog Bakery 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 can 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 offer 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 referred to as "chicken dinner" (or chicken formula) can be anywhere between 25 and 95 percent chicken.

Labels include feeding directions, but they're a guideline and not a "one size fits all." Your vet's guidance takes precedence.

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