Different cat breeds can be susceptible to various diseases and health problems. That is why it is so important to study all the features of your breed along and across. This will help you prepare for possible problems and adequately solve them if the need arises. More importantly, you will be able to recognize the problem at an early stage and immediately seek help from a veterinarian.

As for mixed breed cats, it is just as important to take care of their health in order to give them a long, healthy and happy life.

Many owners love to pamper their cats, and some even give them the same food they feed themselves. Unfortunately, cats are not designed to digest “human food”, cats are usually lactose intolerant, so milk, cream, cheese and other dairy products can cause stomach upset and even more serious problems.

Many owners also over-indulge their cats, albeit with special treats, which is also not good for the animal’s health and often leads to obesity. Obesity can significantly shorten a cat’s lifespan and lead to various diseases and discomfort. A great way to prevent this is to start using a specially formulated complete cat food as soon as you have a kitten/cat in your home.
