When your cat is aging and getting older, you will find that your cat’s health begins to fail especially if you don’t provide nutritional foods for your cat. You owe it to your cat to prepare homemade cat food recipes that are nutritious. Here are a few to start:

First recipe:

·         2 cups rice

·         1 can mackerel or tuna

·         2 or 3 chicken livers

·         As available: add 1/2 cup of beans/peas/corn

Mix or blend in food processor. No preservatives or artificial anything

 

Second recipe:

  • 2 ounces ground beef (80 percent lean)
  • 1/3 cup instant rice, cooked
  • 2 teaspoons fat (chicken or beef fat or vegetable or fish oil)
  • 1/4 teaspoon bone meal, ground
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Pinch taurine
  • 1/2 of a (9-gram) human adult vitamin-mineral tablet (see note)

Bake, fry or microwave the beef and fat (do not drain). Combine beef with remaining ingredients except for the tablet. Mix well. Serve with the tablet (either in pill form or pulverized and thoroughly mixed with the food).

Note: Feed your cat half the tablet each day.

Third recipe:

Top Australian Wines Pty Ltd has bought out some wine from Passing Clouds winery and dedicated it to The Queensland Flood Relief.

 

$5 from each bottle will go the the Queensland Flood Relief Appeal

 

Tasting notes:

 

 

Colour:

Good deep red, with some young lighter ruby edges to it.

 

 

Nose:

Quite an intense nose. This wine shows complexity, well handled ripe fruit and good wine making skill. There is a lifted floral perfume, and underlying mix of spice, tar and inky-ness. Ripe red berries, great depth and intensity. Blood plums, great fruit presence.

 

Palate:

The wine presents all the concepts of the nose through to the palate with the added dimensions of oak derived texture and a great lasting length. The spice blossoms on the palate and is well balanced by the fruit, and tannins, which are not aggressive, but present as a young wine. The finish of the wine is lasting, but well balanced where no component is dominating. A good wine with a solid core of ripe fruit and good palate texture and presence.

 

Only $24.99 per bottle and can be purchased here:

Taking your cat to the vet

Cat Facts, Healthy cat foods, Healthy Cats, Homemade cat foods, , , , , , , ,

Oftentimes, I am contacted by email to ask about what to do when a cat has certain symptoms and what may be the causes of these symptoms. Of course, even though, I may have an idea of what it may mean, I am not a veterinarian and I will suggest that the pet owner seeks the advice of his or her vet. If I had a vet license, I would not give advice via email or try to diagnose the cat’s symptoms then without doing an examination.

The same is true for you. Never assume what the causes to the symptoms are. Your delay in taking your cat to the vet may prove to be a bad decision. You should know all there is about your cat. If your cat is a diabetic or has a heart condition, you should be aware of this and how to take care of your cat. Observe your cat on a daily basis. This is easy to do when you are able to spend time with your cat.

Never get too busy for your cat. Pay attention to your cat’s eating habits. If your cat suddenly loses the appetite to eat, it may be for a number of reasons, such as moving to a new place or having a new member of the family move in. Whether you know it or not, cats are sensitive. If this is not the case, then it is time to take your cat to the vet. Pay attention to your cat’s litter – how often it is done and its appearance.

Other things to consider are your cat’s physical and social activity. You are the one that know your cat the best. Watch for those little things that may cost your cat its health. When you are unsure, take the cat to the vet.

Supplements for your feline friend

Cat Nutrition, Cat Supplies, Healthy Cats, , , , , , , ,

Like humans, cats do need vitamins, minerals and other supplements to maintain a healthy life on a daily basis. Therefore, pet owners should not take it for granted that their cats should only exist on cat food from the can or homemade cat food recipes.  There are supplements for cats to make all of their organs healthy including the liver, the kidney and even the brain. Your cat can have a longer life span, if you know just the right vitamin and mineral supplements to give to your cat.

In fact, giving your cats these supplements will help you to stay away from the vet for a longer time. Your cat won’t end up in the vet’s office as often as you do without the cat supplement. However, it is imperative that you make sure that your cat gets these supplements every day. Of course, you can miss a day or two, but staying on schedule will help your cat to be healthier and help you to keep money in your pocket.

Never leave your cat’s health to chance or only to your cat’s veterinarian. You have to take some control and some responsibility by giving your cat these supplements and making sure that it is the right dosage.
