 We
make it procedure to
wash our cat's feeding and water bowls after each and every meal
to avoid contamination and we implement the same
hygiene standards in pleace for our self.We provide each of our Cats with their own feeding bowls. Why? Imagine sharing a dinner plate every time you sit down to a meal - you might miss out on the best part of your meal trying to retain it on the dinner plate and meal time could end up in constant disputes!! Having said that, my  We recommend that you maintain your Bengal or Savannah cat's previous feeding habits from the Breeder. We will provide you with at least a weeks supply of kitten food when you collect your Bengal or Savannah Kitten. If you do decide on a diet change, try your best to wait for at least a week or more until the new Bengal or Savannah Kitten has settled into it's new home and avoid giving all kittens adult cat food, it might not be nourishing enough. Bengal Cats and Savannah Cats and Kittens do need a proper high balance of protein, vitamins and minerals. If you intend changing your Bengal or Savannah kitten’s diet, a small portion of the new food should be mixed into the previous food. Gradually increase the quantity of new food over time until your cat’s stomach has fully adjusted to the diet change. Your kittens may still encounter a slight upset tummy during the course of this transfer period to a different cat food but not as severe. When selecting food for your Savannah Cats or Bengal Cats, look carefully at the cat food labels and try to select foods with a minimum of 40 percent protein and carbohydrates with good fat content of at least 21 percent. It should also contain over six percent of minerals, two percent vitamins and about three percent fibre. Please bear in mind that some varieties of dried and or wet foods may be too rich to be the sole diet for some individual Bengal or Savannah kittens and may lead to an upset stomach. Always seek advice from your vet if you are in any doubt of your kitten's feeding habits or health. Our preference is a high quality protein diet such as nature's menu. It should not contain any additives, preservatives or chemicals usually found in over processed foods. Some cats do eat small amounts at a time which is perfectly normal. Bengal Cats and Savannah Cats are also routine creatures which gives us the opportunity to train them while they are young. Aim to feed them in the same place at the same time each day and avoid feeding bits and pieces from the dinner table which could unsettle their feeding routine. We also leave a good quality dry food down constantly with fresh boiled cool water. Water is a significant healthy requirement for everyone including animals. You will soon get to know exactly what your kitten enjoys! Always avoid giving them salty foods and, we know we are repeating this, constantly provide your cat with a clean fresh bowl of water. Avoid giving your cats dairy products and milk. It is difficult for their stomachs to digest. If you feel the need to give your kittens milk, look for milk especially made for cats or seek advice from your Vet. |
