A Well Fed Cat Is A Feline Stalking Machine

By: Charlie Board Home | Home-and-Family | Pets


The whole family of cats, domesticated or wild are predators; they love to stalk their prey. Domesticated cats will go out hunting for food even if they have been fed, they can often be heard when they have caught a mouse or a rat running in a field or near dustbins.

Their natural talents are to methodically watch their prey, keeping still, and then quietly stalking it, pouncing at the right time. Cats have short muzzles their jaws will not allow them to snap at their prey, instead they use their paws to bring down their prey and then use their teeth.

Cats that are fed the correct balance in cat food with quality ingredients are more likely to be in prime condition for stalking their prey. A person who has a cat who is active should keep their tropical fish away from their cat and avoid giving a cat enticement by fixing up bird houses or hanging out bags of wild bird food in their garden.
A cat that has been balanced cat nutrition from the time when as a kitten and they stepped over the doorstep of their new home is easily recognisable with its strong bones, lean muscles, shiny coat and bright eyes.

Adult cats that lead an active life will need two meals a day, while a sedentary cat or one that has been neutered may need their meals spread out into three or four smaller portions. Some of the older cats can suffer from constipation or the onset of kidney disease and balanced food available on line at Hills Pets provide a wide range of cat nutrition for cats that need to be on a pet diet according to their age and lifestyle.

At Hills Pets we are proud of our Science Plan which is full of quality ingredients to meet your pet’s individual needs.
