Generally speaking, most of the pet owners who keep pets are kind and well-intentioned-but do you really consider what is needed to keep a dog or cat alive?
Dogs are omnivores, and the cats are carnivores. Feeding the same food to both of them is indeed a big mistake. Why does your cat need meat, while your dog needs balance?
Read pet food labels the way you would your own! Real meat: yes; by-products, fillers, and chemicals: no!
Spoiler- it is not one or the other. Dry is cheap, good for teeth; wet is tasty and good for hydration!
A lot of hydration really goes a long way toward keeping kidneys healthy, especially for cats. Fresh water every single day- would you belabor the point?
A few of those treats are really toxins! Avoid chocolate, onions, grapes, and bones that splinter.
Seedless apple slices, pumpkin, and plain rice make for tummy-friendly snacks.
Your pet is special. A vet must recommend the best diet, supplement, and when to feed.
Grain-free diets, raw diets, foreign-imported meat—don't fall for the gimmicks. Stick with the recommendations of your vet.
Good food's not a luxury—it's love. Start today by reading labels and discussing with your vet. Your pet's worth it!
