For many people a feline companion is the perfect choice of pet. A new kitten is just so cute and adorable for starters. They aren’t as destructive as their canine counterparts and they don’t need quite so much looking after.

We often think of household animals as being voracious and greedy creatures, willing to eat almost anything and everything. However, many of us will know from experience that this is not always the case and that, whether you have a cat, a dog, or even a rabbit, not only can our animals be fussy, they also sometimes seem to be totally uninterested in the exact food they are supposed to eat.

Pets really brighten up any home. It’s nice for single people or families to have a furry companion they can love and care for. It’s nice to see a familiar and friendly face at the end of a long day. They give so much love and provide so much joy and entertainment.

There are so many reasons why a family chooses a dog as a pet. They are faithful, loyal, loving and loads of fun. A walk really comes into its own with a canine companion. One of the most important aspects of being a responsible owner is getting their diet right.

Left to their own devices and cats will hunt for food. They can survive adequately in this way, as they have evolved to be carnivores, and to get their nutrition by eating other animals.

It is important to remember that cats are “obligate carnivores” which means that they are designed to survive on meat alone, and unless they get certain proteins from their diet then they won’t survive. Of course, in the great outdoors they get meat by hunting.
