There is nothing easier then just opening a bag of food to feed your cat. When you make your own kitten food it reguires you to set some time aside every few days to prepare it.

In the beginning, making your own kitten food can be more costly. A kittens diet consists of raw meat and vegetables.

It will actuall cost you less money in the long run. When your kitten gets the right amount of nutrition he will be sick less often. That means that you will spend less on vet bills. You still need to get your friend his shots but the sick vet bills will be greatly reduced. Your kitten will also eat less when he is properly feed.

You also need to make sure you do your homework. Cats have allergies to some of our food and some of are food is even poison to them.

Some of the foods that are poison to cats is onions, garlic, and tomatoes. Your cat should not eat anything that is considered part of those food groups. Cats are also lactose intolerant. Milk will not kill your cat but it will make him feel bad.

Just like everything you do, when you know the rules and follow them, you won’t have to think about them. It will become second nature.
