Many people are making the switch to natural or organic cat food or even homemade cat food. There a few different reasons why people are making the change including uncertainty about what is in conventional foods, wanting to find the healthiest food possible and to leave a smaller footprint on the environment.
Organic cat food is made from whole ingredients, but this type of pet food also adheres to strict requirements concerning how the ingredients are grown or raised.
Organic cat foods don’t contain antibiotics, synthetic hormones, fertilizers or toxic pesticides. They typically use more whole food ingredients and they aren’t as heavily processed or irradiated. They also don’t contain chemical additives or preservatives. Organic pet food companies use more natural and biological farming methods including the use of mulch and compost instead of chemical fertilizers. They also tend to add things like probiotics and enzymes to enhance the nutritional value and assimilation of the food.

A healthy feline diet is the foundation for your kitty’s health. Feeding your cat a good quality natural cat food, or better yet organic cat food, you can help avoid a lot of common cat health problems by keeping her immune system strong. Organic cat food companies, like Newman’s Own, usually have stricter standards so they generally have better quality foods, but read the label to be sure.
Part of that healthy feline diet includes getting enough water. Cats have a low thirst drive because they were meant to get some of their liquids through their diet. A cat on a dry food only diet may have more cat health problems, like feline urinary tract infections which can be extremely serious.
You may be able to get your cat to drink more regularly by keeping water in different rooms of your home so it’s always handy. Also try using different containers to see what they prefer.
