    Cats' ancestors lived in deserts, so cats don't have a long history of eating fish.

    Cats especially need taurine, whether it is the energy needs of survival, or the ability to see at night, taurine, but it itself is completely unable to synthesize taurine, and meat, especially mice, fish, contains taurine is particularly high, so cats have a soft spot for them. Therefore, it is not difficult to see that cats actually want fish meat, not fish bones. Cats are actually very bitter for fish bones, if it is raw fish, the bones are relatively soft, the big spines are easy to vomit, and the small spines are accompanied by meat, and they will be eaten together, but if they are cooked fish bones, they will become hard, and there are many small spines such as crucian carp, which is too bad for cats.

    Fish bones can easily get stuck in the throat, causing cats to experience symptoms such as difficulty swallowing, pain, salivation, and reluctance to eat. Secondly, in severe cases, it can puncture the intestines and esophagus, resulting in blood pulling, abdominal pain, and even life-threatening.

    Secondly, also look at the type of cat, our pastoral cat, after a long period of evolution, has a strong ability to survive, eating fish is stuck by fish bones or still occasionally happens, and then look at the Ragdoll cat, the number of times the fish bones are stuck is even more exaggerated.

    Cats are carnivores, so they especially like to eat raw flesh and bones. After eating raw bone meat, cats will become dislike to eat cat food, because cat food is mixed with some starch, which is not very in line with the cat's taste. Therefore, the owner can buy some duck or chicken racks in the market, and then thaw them and then give them to the cat.

    Why don't kittens eat cat food and only raw flesh and bones?

    Because cats are very fond of eating meat, they will not eat some vegetarian food at all when they are in the wild, and will only eat wild animals. However, cats have been kept in captivity by humans, so they will become like to eat other foods and become omnivorous animals. But if cats start eating raw bone meat from a young age, they will also be particularly dependent on raw bone meat and will become dislike eating cat food.

    After all, cats have sharp teeth and can chew the bones of some small wild animals. Then the cat can eat some bone marrow, and it can also supplement enough fate by eating meat, which can make the cat healthier. Therefore, eating raw bone meat is the right choice, but raw bone meat is more expensive, so many people will give their cats cat food.

    The owner can also make cat food for the cat himself, and let the cat eat some duck or chicken racks.

    If the owner thinks that the raw meat is very expensive and he can no longer afford it, he can buy some duck or chicken racks in the market, and then buy some noodles or rice. Then thaw the frozen raw meat, boil it again, and mix some rice into it for the cat to eat, so that the cat can also accept it. After all, eating meat regularly costs money, and it may make the owner poor, so that the owner can't afford to raise the cat.

    Therefore, the owner should also change the cat's diet appropriately, so that the cat can be fed, and the owner does not need to spend a lot of money.

    SummaryWhen raising cats, owners must know more about cat recipes, so that they can make more nutritious and delicious cat meals for cats. If the owner is very busy, you can also give the cat kitten food from an early age, so that the cat can also get used to the taste of the cat food.

    It's okay to have raw bones, but not cooked bones.

    Cats can eat a moderate amount of raw bone meat, and can even eat raw bone meat as their staple food. However, cats that feed on raw bone and meat need to consume about 5% of animal liver every week, such as chicken hearts, chicken livers, etc. In addition, when feeding cats raw bone meat, you should also choose chicken, duck, rabbit, beef and other different types of meat to be fed together to ensure food diversity.

    Although cats can eat bones, they have difficulty digesting the brittle bones after cooking, as well as small broken bones. In addition, it is likely that a large amount of bone residue remains in the cooked bones, which may get stuck in the cat's throat or even cause the cat to suffocate to death.

    Of course. There is protein and fat in cat food, and there is nothing harmful to the body. Because fish love to eat very small foods and bread crumbs, they can eat them.

    If you just bought it, you can't just give it to the fish, soak it in the water for 1 hour, then dry it in the sun for 2 days, and then give it to the fish, which is the best.

    Cats can eat bones.

    Cats can eat some bones properly, but not all bones can be fed to cats. Cats can supplement animal protein by eating a moderate amount of raw bone meat, but it is difficult to digest the brittle bones after cooking, as well as small broken bones. In addition, there is a high risk of a large amount of bone residue remaining in the cooked bones, which may get stuck in the cat's throat or even cause the cat to suffocate to death.

    Bone marrow is very rich in oil, and cats mainly rely on fat for energy, and bones are also a good choice when there is no meat. In addition, the intake of bones can also supplement a large number of mineral elements, such as calcium, and for cats, calcium can also be supplemented to promote bone growth.

    Foods that cats are not allowed to eat:

    1. Raw tomatoes

    Raw tomatoes, also known as green tomatoes, belong to the Solanaceae family and contain a bitter toxic alkaloid that can cause severe lower gastrointestinal diseases. The leaves and fruits of raw tomatoes are poisonous, but don't worry, ripe tomatoes are not poisonous.

    2. Chocolate

    Everyone knows that chocolate is toxic for dogs, and theobromine in chocolate is also toxic for cats.

    3. Grapes and raisins

    Grapes and raisins are toxic to dogs, but given that this type of food has many unknown toxicities for pets, it is recommended not to let cats come into contact with grapes and raisins.

    Two-month-old cats can already start eating raw bone meat, but unsterilized raw bone meat has bacteria and parasite problems, which has a greater impact on young kittens with low immunity, so be especially careful.

    As for raw bone meat and cat food, can you eat it together?

    It is not recommended to eat at the same meal, if time does not allow, it is recommended that dry food and raw bone meat feeding be separated, and at least eight hours apart (but two-month-old kittens, in the growth period, feed once every 4-6 hours, so try to eat raw bone meat as the main food, otherwise the interval is too long, and the kitten will starve).

    Dry food is high in carbohydrates and plant-based proteins, which causes the stomach environment to become less acidic.

    The emptying of the stomach slows down.

    The contaminated bacteria are not destroyed.

    Raw meat or bones do not soften and break down effectively.

    When there is a problem with the digestion of the stomach and the subsequent digestion and absorption of the small intestine (fats, vitamins, etc.), therefore.

    Feeding dry food and raw meat at the same time will cause both to not be completely digested in the stomach and intestines, and the carbohydrates of dry food will reduce the cat's ability to fully digest raw meat, and will also make the cat susceptible to bacterial infection.
