Sensitive Kitty, Happy Tummy: Choosing Treats for Mild Gastric Conditions

Cats with sensitive stomachs could view their situation to be like a jigsaw missing some pieces. You want to reward them, but each time you open a fresh bag of Cat treats you start to lose oxygen. This will be the treat that starts gastrointestinal problems? Or will it be quiet litter box visits, purrs, and delight? Let’s review premiumfeeders cues and let your sensitive cat to nibble free from drama.

It starts with the basic concepts; less is more. Treats made from a simple, short ingredient list taste best. Less elements mean less likelihood of an unhappy outcome. Grains and dairy call careful caution. Many cats find grain or wheat difficult to digest down. Even that luscious “milk flavored” product could cause misadventure in lactose intolerant cats. If the ingredients list grain or milk components, you might want to keep searching.

Artificial objects have issues as well. Though they can liven a treat, flavors, colors, and preservatives are not always suitable for feline digestion. Limited ingredient treats are absolutely life saving if your pet has food allergies or sensitivities. Some businesses even mark “hypoallergenic” on the bag, usually signifying fewer triggers. Textile quality is important. Crunchy foods might be challenging on a sensitive stomach; softer treats, including freeze-dried nibbles, usually go down more readily.

Find out from your veterinarian if you are stumped. If your cat regularly shows GI disturbance, a quick phone call or veterinarian visit is well worth the piece of mind. They can recommend certain proteins you never considered or safe treat brands.

Although choosing treats for a sensitive stomached cat is not difficult, it does call for some sympathy and investigative work. Equipped with a magnifying glass (or powerful reading glasses), some patience, and maybe some humor for the unavoidable treat taste test failures, arm yourself. Although your cat might never say thank you, its own kind of pleasure is a peaceful, purr-filled day. Definitely, you agree?
