Grain-Free Cat Food
£14.53
Veterinarian Dr. med. vet. Franziska G. explains: Grain-free cat food
“While the digestive tract of humans and herbivores can generally digest grain-rich food well, a cat’s comparatively short digestive tract is not, or is only barely, able to do so. If a cat consumes too much grain, this will put strain on its digestion and lead to digestive problems. These primarily include diarrhoea, vomiting and flatulence.
Grain-free cat food consists mainly of meat and poultry, offal or fish. Depending on the product, it may also be enriched with vegetables or fruit. However, it does not contain carbohydrates from grains that are difficult for cats to digest. It’s therefore considered easier to digest, while still providing your cat with all the nutrients required for their wellbeing.”
