What are the essential requirements for kitten growth?

An appropriate diet, combined with targeted support through supplements and specific care, helps prevent deficiencies, reinforce natural defenses and ensure harmonious growth- the essential basis for good adult health.

Unlike adult cats, kittens need a higher energy intake per kilo, as well as specific nutrients to support their vital functions as they develop. Here are the main physiological needs to be covered:

Quality animal proteins: to build muscles and organs
Taurine: essential amino acid in cats, involved in vision, heart and immunity
Calcium and phosphorus: necessary for bone and dental growth
Omega-3 (DHA): supports brain and retina development
Vitamins A, D, E, B and C: for immunity, cell growth and metabolism
Prebiotics and probiotics: promote stable, resistant intestinal flora
Natural antioxidants: protect cells from early aggression

A growing kitten is also more sensitive to parasites, infections, stress and digestive disorders. It is therefore advisable to accompany this period with adapted support products.

What simple advice do you have to support your kitten's growth?

Split meals (4 times a day) up to 6 months of age to relieve the digestive system.
Keep fresh water available at all times, especially with dry food.
Remember to deworm regularly, as parasites stunt growth
Play with him every day to stimulate his motor and cognitive functions
Monitor weight and behavior (appetite, cleanliness, sleep)
Visit your veterinarian at 2, 4, 6 and 12 months for vaccinations and growth monitoring.
