Kitten Nutrition Tips
​Choosing an appropriate food for your kitten is an important decision that can maintain and improve your pet’s lifelong health. With so many options available, it may seem overwhelming to pick the best diet for your pet. Each pet’s nutritional requirements are unique based on their age, activity level, lifestyle, and any existing medical conditions. The veterinarians at City Paws Veterinary Clinic recommend completely balanced diets which are formulated by veterinary nutritionists, have undergone extensive food-trial safety testing, and verified by AAFCO (Association of Animal Feed Control Officials).
 
Proper nutrition is vital in supporting healthy development of growing kittens. During stages of growth, kittens require a different balance of vitamins and minerals in comparison to adult animals. In general, we recommend feeding kittens a diet made for growth for the first full year of life. However, a veterinarian can make specific suggestions based on the individual needs of your pet.
Below are a few suggestions of balanced diets formulated by nutritionists and have undergone extensive safety testing:
  1.       Purina Pro-Plan kitten
  2.       Hill’s Science Diet
  3.       Royal Canin 
 
This list of recommendations does not encompass all the appropriate diets available for your pet. Each pet is unique and may require additional considerations. In some cases, home-made diets are desired. These diets should be formulated specifically for each individual pet by a certified veterinary nutritionist to ensure that they are completely balanced and meet the required standards of vitamin and mineral balance.
Dog and cat foods are constantly evolving and changing. New dietary options are available weekly and choosing the proper diet may feel like a difficult decision. The staff and veterinarians at City Paws Veterinary Clinic would be happy to assist you in making the proper choice for your pet. Please do not hesitate to contact us with your questions and concerns.

This electrical parade is going to be a blast, I am sure of it. I am excited to see what kind of things they have lined up here. I know that it is going to take a lot of preparation, but I am glad that they did this. Our world needs to be entertained in a good way, that is for sure. I mean, this will really lift the spirits of everyone who is feeling down and depressed at the moment.

A man who carries a cat by the tail learns something he can learn in no other way.
