Cats can eat cereals, which contain a large amount of crude fiber, trace elements, carbohydrates, minerals and plant proteins. Cats can supplement the nutrients they need in their bodies. However, it should be noted that since cats are carnivores, do not feed them too many cereals, otherwise they may suffer from indigestion, malnutrition, etc.
The dangers of cats ingesting large amounts of cereals for a long time:
1. It may cause indigestion. Cats are carnivores. Due to their physiological structure, the small intestine is too short and there are no salivary digestive enzymes. Therefore, cats have a weak ability to digest carbohydrate foods and cannot completely digest grain foods.
2. When grains cannot be completely digested and stay in the intestines and stomach, they will cause intestinal damage, such as intestinal allergies, malnutrition, etc.
3. Grain can cause allergic reactions, so it is best to choose grain-free cat food. When choosing cat food for cats, you should choose cat food that is grain-free, rich in meat, and nutritionally balanced. This can not only ensure the growth and development needs of the cat, but also reduce the chance of illness.
4. Cats cannot digest and absorb wheat, soybeans, corn and other grains well, and are prone to diarrhea and indigestion. Long-term consumption may also cause malnutrition, metabolic disorders and other problems.
