Feeding your cat seafood is important for your cat's health.

In this article, we will tell you how to feed your furry pet fish correctly and safely.

What kind of fish can you give your cat

By including fish or other seafood in your cat's diet, you are doing more than just feeding your pet.

This way, you're feeding your animal essential fatty acids, lean proteins, and key vitamins and minerals.

What fish should you not give to cats

Never feed your cats salted or smoked fish.

The animal's body is not able to absorb salt in such large quantities.

Excess salt tends to be deposited in the kidneys and causes urolithiasis or kidney failure.

Therefore, do not salt the fish when cooking.

Also, carefully ensure that there is not a single bone in the fish meat.
