Organic Cat Food Recommendations

The trend as of late has been to start eating healthy - organic food and healthy food recipes are on the rise and demand as everyone tries to eat healthier and smarter. But what about the four-legged members of your family? Why leave them behind while you eat smart? Organic cat food can help your feline live longer, be happier just like you! Read on for some ideas on where to purchase organic cat food to make your feline friend a happy kitty!

The first thing to remember is that just because it's organic and good for humans doesn't mean that you can feed it to your cat! Organic cat food is special in that it balances nutrients and vitamins to make sure that your cat gets all the right doses, something human food cannot deliver!

One good site to start searching for organic cat food is Newman's Own Organics, at www.newmansownorganics.com/pet/home/. They've just launched a special line of organic cat food that delivers just what you need to keep your feline on a good diet! Newman's Own Organics offer an adult cat formula and an advanced cat formula for kittens and elderly felines that contains a mixture of vitamins, minerals, whole grains and proteins that will be easily digestible by your cat. Personally I like this brand because you can find it easily on the shelves of your local pet food store and even in some of the major chains. It's hard to continue an organic cat food diet when you can't access the food easily or am dependent on the postal system to deliver your supplies or worse - have to drive for hours with the current cost of gas!

Another excellent site is Caster and Pollux Pet works at www.castorpolluxpet.com. Here the cat owner new to the idea of organic cat food can even purchase a starting kit for less than ten dollars! Containing samples of the different types of organic cat food available, this is an excellent way to slowly move your cat's diet away from what you've been currently feeding him/her and onto a healthy organic cat food diet! This company also has the bonus that they carry the first pet foods made with certified organic chicken as the very first ingredient in both their cat and dog organic foods, meeting the USDA's labeling regulations for organic foods.

Of course you could attempt to make organic cat food on your own, but it's much more complicated than just adjusting the sizes and portions of what you digest as a human - it would be very easy to miss out on giving your feline friend essential vitamins and nutrients when you switch diets!

As with all changes in lifestyle, human and feline, it's best to discuss this with your veterinarian to make sure that your change to organic cat food is something that your feline can handle. Under certain circumstances your cat may not be able to change diets and your vet can make sure that any organic cat food contains what he/she needs to stay healthy and happy. Your vet can also supply you with references to brands that they approve of along with possible local connections to healthy organic cat food in your area!

Changing your cat's diet to include organic cat food doesn't have to be a traumatic experience for the owner or the feline - all it takes is a little research and knowledge to give your feline a good healthy organic cat food every day and keep those teeth white, that fur sleek and soft and those eyes bright and happy!
