Do you know how to feed puppets from February to June? Many people do not master some scientific methods when raising cats, which can easily lead to cats getting sick. Here, I'd like to share with you some methods of feeding muppets from February to June, hoping to help you.
Feeding methods of puppets for 2-6 months 1 1. The first step of puppets' cultivation: 0-2 months.
For kittens 0-2 months old, that is, just born, Bao Xiao's advice to everyone is: give priority to breastfeeding and do a good job of weaning.
Kittens born at the age of 0-2 weeks can be completely breastfed without adding extra food. The reason is that kittens initially need antibodies in breast milk, which is very important for their immunity, and the nutritional elements in breast milk can initially meet the nutritional needs of kittens. Therefore, the prospective shovel officer who is ready to lay hands on the baby cat should pay attention to it, and don't separate it too early ~
If you really don't have breast milk, you can drink special pet milk powder, such as goat milk powder, which is closer to breast milk. Young cats are more likely to accept the stomach and adapt to it. Older people can add some rice flour to the milk powder.
1, no feeding.
Remember! Don't feed the kitten with milk. There are fewer lactolytic enzymes in cats, and they decrease with age, so they can't fully digest lactose in milk, which leads to lactose intolerance. Lactose can also be fermented by microorganisms in the hindgut to produce gas and flatulence, and even lead to osmotic diarrhea. Eating milk can cause diarrhea in young cats. (It is also not recommended to feed milk to adult cats ~)
2. Weaning period
In about 45 days, you can start feeding young cat food to kittens and start weaning. During this period, the digestive system of cats is weak. Xixi suggested that you can try to soak cat food in warm water before feeding, and pay attention to choosing special baby cat food or milk cake food as pet food. This weaning process lasts until the kitten is two months old. Try to wean the kitten completely when it is two months old. During this time, it is best to feed the kitten 3-4 times a day.
Second, the second step of kitten development: 2-6 months
However, when the cat is 2-6 months old, its growth speed begins to slow down and its activity decreases. At this time, when they eat more, they can increase the weight of each meal, reduce the number of meals every day, and gradually change from three meals to two meals. On the basis of the original food, you can add a little nutritious canned cat food to ensure the different nutritional needs brought about by slow growth, or feed 1 to 3 cm of nutritional cream every morning to meet the balanced nutritional needs of cats.
1, bone development and vitamins
Secondly, the cat's bones also developed rapidly during this period. The cat has gradually grown from a soft "small meat ball" to a "small athlete". In order to support the growth of cat bones, it is particularly important to supplement calcium and phosphorus, and the content should be kept at an appropriate level. Too high or too low will lead to abnormal bone development.
Finally, because the kitten's immune system is not fully developed, the cat's resistance is relatively weak, so it is necessary to supplement the right amount of vitamin E when feeding to enhance its own resistance.
However, because the kitten's mouth, teeth and stomach are relatively small, it can't eat enough food to digest enough energy in one meal, so it is necessary to eat less and eat more meals at this time. During this time, please try to ensure that the cat eats at least three meals a day.
Third, the third step of kitten development: 12 months
When the cat reaches 1 year, its body tends to be stable and it no longer needs a lot of nutrition and calories. At this time, the nutrition provided by young cat food obviously cannot meet its needs, and the amount of cats should be gradually replaced by adult cat food. In the process of changing food, the proportion should be gradually increased until it is completely changed to cat food. Grain changes are generally completed within 7~ 10 days. When the cat eats adult cat food, the cat's infancy will be completely over ~
The last thing to say is water. Cats are thirsty, but water is also an indispensable substance in cats' lives. Water can regulate metabolism and affect growth and development. Water contributes to the transportation, digestion and absorption of nutrients, the elimination of metabolic wastes and the regulation of body temperature, and endocrine regulation is also inseparable from water. Young cats need 60 ~ 80 ml of water per kilogram of body weight every day, and nursing cats need more water. I hope you can feed your cat scientifically and let your cat grow up healthily.
Muppet feeding method from February to June 2, the kitten knocked on the blackboard. Please keep in mind the following knowledge points: raw and cooked can not be mixed, which is easy to cause gastrointestinal discomfort!
1, staple food
A. raw flesh and blood
You can make it yourself, or you can buy raw meat made by brands.
I am too lazy to control myself. You can rest assured to buy the brand of Blue Ridge Beef!
How to feed raw flesh and blood? This is for homework.
B freeze-drying raw meat and blood ("freeze-drying" for short)
Freeze-dried raw meat can be understood as portable raw meat:
Freeze-drying raw meat refers to freezing raw meat with fresh ingredients such as bones and internal organs at a high speed (minus 35 degrees), and then continuously vacuum drying under high pressure for 6 hours, so that the water contained in raw meat can be directly sublimated from ice to steam, and no liquid is produced in the process, and the steam is continuously discharged under high pressure.
It can be said that there are no shortcomings except expensive! Perfect for parents who want to feed their cats well, but are lazy and have no time. Remember not to buy only one flavor of freeze-dried, so eating chicken every day will get tired!
WDJ(20 14) thinks that besides self-made pet food, freeze-dried pet food is the freshest and has the lowest degree of processing, which can ensure comprehensive and balanced nutrition.
Not that the internal organs are bad. The heart belongs to muscle for cats and is rich in taurine. The liver belongs to internal organs and must be eaten. Freeze-drying contains internal organs, muscles and bones, which is completely ok! In the diet structure of cats, muscle accounts for 80%-85%, liver accounts for 5%, bone accounts for 5% and other internal organs account for 5%.
C. canned staple food
D. dry food
2. Snacks/rewards
To educate and standardize the behavior of cats, it is best to give some snacks appropriately. Remember, it is moderate, not too much!
* * Freeze-dried snacks: * * Some freeze-dried snacks can be eaten by cats and dogs. If you have a dog at home, it is convenient to buy it! Sometimes when the masters are picky about food, they can crush the freeze-dried snacks and mix them in the staple food. Masters should be able to eat well!
* * Other freeze-dried snacks: * * This mainly refers to chicken neck, duck neck and the like. It is recommended to buy special food for cats, such as fresh food. There are many frozen dried meat snacks at home. Cut it into pieces when you feed it, not too big!
* * Human baby food supplement: * * Hahaha, I didn't expect that many baby food supplements can also be used as cat snacks! Recommend garbo's chicken/cow/turkey.
* * Miam is still a cat and snake: * * The famous Miami cream, emmmm suggested buying it from Germany, and domestic partners can directly search for a treasure. Nutritional milk cream for kittens under 4 months old 1 tablet, 2 days; 4- 12 months and 4 days 1 block nourishing milk cream; 65438+65438 0 pieces of nutritional milk cream after 0 years old+1 week old (2 pieces of nutritional milk cream for sick cats/week old)
Many people recommend Japanese cat snacks, but how do you say it? Many cats like Japanese cat snacks because there are too many monosodium glutamate! Especially goodbye ... but my kid doesn't like CIAO, hahahaha.
**Gimpet Nutrition Cream: * * This brand is called Junbao in Chinese, and it is also very famous! It is also better to use homemade hair cream. The following vitamin-fortified fish oil nutrition cream is very good! Feed 6 cm a day.
3. Nutrition
In fact, breeds of cats have fragile stomachs, but they don't have to suffer from glass stomachs. It is generally believed that the gastrointestinal tract of puppet cats is particularly weak. In fact, if you feed the cat correctly, don't worry too much, just add some daily nutrition! If the diet is correct and healthy, there is basically no need for nutrition, and it can be supplemented occasionally.
3. 1 What should cats do if they are constipated and have soft stools? Choose probiotics or pumpkin puree!
probiotics
When cats defecate, the usage of probiotics doubles, which can be relieved within 1-2 days. If the cat is soft and bloody for a long time, be sure to see a doctor!
3.2 Maintenance of Urinary Tract in Adult Cats
3.3 hair cream
Miamor and Gimpet were the first to be promoted, but because it is not easy to buy, you can choose the following one! But remember to feed the cat when it grows up! You can also go to vet to buy hair cream and ask about the dosage of vet. It is not advisable to take too much ~
3.4 Daily vitamin supplements
Can be eaten in a freeze-dried way!
Step 4: Drink water.
In order to prevent cats from having black chins (cats have blackheads! ), the cat's tableware is all replaced by ceramics, glass or stainless steel.
Cats like to drink running water. Suggest buying that kind of small fountain water dispenser!
As for the water that cats drink, pure water is good, and safe mineral water and hot spring water are also good choices, but don't give cats distilled water.
5. Feeding method and time
Kittens are fed every four hours, four times a day; Two meals a day after seven months.
The daily food intake of kittens is 10% of their body weight. Just take it home and see how much cats can eat every meal before adjusting. If it can eat, leave it alone. It's normal to gain 2 kg a month!
The ratio of freeze-drying to water is about 1:2 or 1:3. No matter how much water there is, as long as it is not freeze-dried. Water temperature 100- 120 degrees Fahrenheit. If probiotics are mixed, the water temperature 100 degrees. If probiotics are not mixed, 120 degree is easier to mix and freeze-dry.
