Cat Nutrition
Cat food is food manufactured for consumption by cats from the age range of just a few months. Although cats are obligate carnivores, most commercial cat food contains both animal and plant material, supplemented with vitamins, minerals and other nutrients. Cat food is formulated to address the specific nutritional requirements of cats, in particular containing the amino acid taurine, as cats cannot thrive on taurine-deficient food and go blind when fed with dog food, for example.

Purchasing quality pet products present a problem these days as there are such a vast range of choice available to us. As far as your Persian cat’s diet food items are concerned you have to be very careful before you do the purchasing.
The governing factor to a Persian cat’s health is a stable and appropriate diet since this kind of cats is somewhat more sensitive towards food as compared to other cats. Persian cats generally also require more vitamins in comparison to other cats, and if needed you can purchase supplements from animal stores, however if provided with a balanced diet that consists of an adequate amount of vitamins the supplements would not be required.
What you feed your Persian cat depends to a great extent on its age. A cat of one to two months old should be fed simply milk and that too of special quality designed only for kittens. Once they grow up a little to the age of 4months and till they reach 12 months they can be given food which is soft like chicken and other items full of vitamins so that the growth of the kitten remains healthy.
