Bowwow Place sells domestically produced additive-free cat food for kittens (no added coloring or fragrance). How to choose safe cat food for kittens

Cats can start eating baby food when their teeth start coming in around the fourth week of age, after which they can be switched over to kitten food over a period of about 12 to 16 weeks of age.

The reason is that at this age, kittens become more active and move around with their small bodies, and their mother's milk alone no longer provides them with enough nutrients to grow.

High-quality cat food has a positive effect on your cat's health and lifespan. As your cat grows, its nutritional needs change, so choose cat food that is appropriate for its life stage.

Recently, cat food can be purchased from pet shops, mass retailers, and online stores. There is a wide range of ingredients and prices, so many pet owners are troubled by the choice of which one to choose.

Here we will explain in detail what to consider when choosing cat food for kittens. If you are planning to welcome a kitten into your family, please read this article.

Is it safe because it's made in Japan? If you want to choose truly safe additive-free cat food, check the ingredients!

When purchasing cat food, some people may pay attention to products made in domestic factories, but do you assume that domestically produced food means it is safe?

It's true that Japan has strict hygiene standards, so the image that domestically produced products are safe may be well-established. However, if you're choosing a cat food that's safe for your kitten, you should also pay attention to the ingredients.

◆ Even if it is labeled as domestically produced, the ingredients may be imported.

Cat food packaging will state the country of origin of the product. If the country of origin is Japan, it is domestically produced, but there are also cases where the country of origin of the ingredients or the cat food processing is actually overseas.

Some people may think, "This is a scam!", but the country of origin refers to the country where the final processing step of the product took place. Therefore, even if the raw materials of a cat food are imported from overseas, it can be labeled as "Country of Origin: Japan (Domestic)".

If you want to choose safe additive-free cat food, please use Bow Wow Place's mail order service. We carry a wide variety of cat food that is free of coloring and fragrances, with your cat's health in mind.

Tips for choosing cat food for kittens

For growing kittens, it is best to choose additive-free cat food that contains as many nutrients as possible that their bodies need.

Here are five points to consider when choosing cat food for your kitten.

◆ The raw material is animal protein

Just like humans, kittens need high-quality protein during their growth period. The growth-promoting ingredient "taurine" is found in animal-based foods such as meat and fish, but not in plant-based foods such as vegetables and grains.

Therefore, choose cat food that is made from animal ingredients and has at least 30% protein.

When checking the ingredients, look at the first ingredient on the cat food package. The first ingredient is the main ingredient that is most abundant in the food. It is recommended that meat or seafood, which are high in protein, be listed there.

◆ The ingredients are chicken and white fish.

The digestive organs of developing kittens are still immature. For this reason, we recommend cat food that contains easily digestible animal ingredients such as chicken and white fish.

On the other hand, it is best to avoid products that contain poultry or meat meal as the main ingredient. When choosing cat food, be sure to check the packaging.

◆ High calorie and high fat content

Kittens are small and active, so they need more than three times the calories of adult cats. However, kittens cannot eat a lot at once, so choose high-calorie foods.

Lipids contain a lot of arachidonic acid, which helps absorb vitamins and maintains the development and health of skin, hair, brain function, and muscles.

Low carbohydrate content

Cats are animals that use protein and fat as energy, so they don't need much carbohydrates. In addition, kittens' digestive organs are not yet fully developed, so it is best to avoid giving them cat food that is high in carbohydrates.

Avoid feeding your cat food that contains more than 40% carbohydrates.

◆ Products that are additive-free or contain natural additives

Some cat foods contain many additives such as preservatives, colorings, flavorings, and antioxidants. Of course, these are contained within safety standards, but if you are concerned about your kitten's health, it is better to choose cat food that is additive-free or made with natural ingredients such as rosemary extract and vitamin E.

We recommend cat food for kittens that is high in protein, fat, and calories, contains a lot of animal ingredients, and is free of preservatives, colorings, and fragrances. However, giving your kitten too much food can lead to obesity, so even if you choose high-quality cat food, be sure to limit the daily intake.

On the other hand, for senior cats, whose internal organs are less functional, we recommend additive-free cat food that is high in protein and low in calories and easy to digest.
