A cat’s coat is a reflection of their health. Dull, dry fur can signal dietary deficiencies. Want a cat that gleams? Focus on these food elements:
- Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Found in fish oil (salmon, tuna), these reduce inflammation and support skin cell health. Look for foods with added omega-3s.
- Animal Protein: Cats are carnivores! Meat provides essential amino acids for fur growth. Chicken, turkey, and fish are excellent sources.
- Vitamin E: A powerful antioxidant, vitamin E protects skin from damage. It’s often added to quality cat foods.
- Hydration: Wet food helps increase water intake, crucial for skin health. Consider a mix of wet and dry food.
Beyond food: Regular grooming removes dead hair and distributes skin oils, further boosting shine.
