You should definitely consider using holistic cat food for your cat. Holistic cat food is food that has no artificial ingredients in it.

One of the reasons cats live such a short time is because most cat food produces don't make nutritious food.

The natural life span of cats is actually twenty five to thirty years but the average cat only lives to be seven to ten years old. The nutritional value of most commercial food for felines is equivalent to Twinkies.

Just imagine what would happen to you if you ate nothing but junk food for the next nine years.

When you have food that is free of everything that is not found naturally then you have holistic food. The problem with cat food being holistic is that you never know what is actually in it. The cat food company's only have to claim the ingredients that are put into the food after it reaches their plant.

Basically, the law states that if the meat gets preservatives put into it at a processing plant before it reaches the cat food manufacturers then they can turn around and claim that it is preservative free.

What they consider meat for cat food is another problem. Animals put down at the pound, parts of cows not usable for us, and road kill are all used for the meat and meat byproducts.

When an animal is euthanized at the pound they use poison. Unfortunately for your cat the poison does not cook out when they process the meat. You might unknowingly be poisoning your cat when you feed him.

But what are your options?

Well if you want your four legged family member to live a long and healthy life you might want to consider using a combination of homemade food and safe commercial food. With homemade food you don't have to wonder what's in it because you put it their.

Giving your cat homemade cat food is a great way to make sure your cat is living his life to the fullest. Don't forget about your puppy either. Make sure he is getting homemade puppy food!
