Feeding your cat an all natural cat food diet will improve her health, boost her immune system and create a happy cat. If you knew what went into most, if not all, commercial pet food, you would never buy it again. Truly, it's not for the faint hearted.

Most commercial pet food ingredients are cheap, as the better quality food goes for the higher priced human food market. Cheap food can mean anything from high fat content, meat by-products (hair, intestinal contents, chicken feet, rancid fat, dead or diseased animals), to low grade carbohydrates such as sugar, left over fast food or spoilt grain unfit for human consumption to the melamine used to bulk out American pet food imported from China.

None of this is normal or natural cat food and much of it is indigestible, so can you wonder that overall, cats health is on the decline?

What can you do about it?

The first and most important thing to do is change your cat's diet to a homemade, raw, all natural cat food, for seven good reasons.

Cats evolved on raw food over millions of years. They are best able to use this diet over all others.

Raw food contains all the essential vitamins, minerals, enzymes, amino acids and other nutrients, in the right amount, in a balanced form. Cooking destroys many essential nutrients.

Unlike processed cat food, natural cat food is easy to absorb and the cat utilises it efficiently.

An all natural cat food diet ensures your cat has healthy teeth and gums. Despite the claims, no processed cat food does this.

Parasites such as worms, fleas and ticks are minimal when you feed your cat this diet, as the environment of your cat's body is not conducive to them. This is the opposite of processed food which makes your cat's body a feeding ground for parasites.

All natural cat food keeps your cats immune system in good working order, so reducing or preventing many diseases, particularly the serious ones.

A hunting domestic cat is usually doing so to address an imbalance in their diet. A natural diet reduces a cat's desire to hunt.

Whatever the health of your cat is like at the moment, changing her diet to all natural cat food will go a long way to the prognosis of her condition. However, it isn't just a matter of substituting her processed food for raw meat. There are some important rules to follow and tips to consider.

Madeleine Innocent has been a homoeopath, a natural health therapist, since 2000. She treats both people and animals and finds that when the diet of her patient is addressed, to one that is more in keeping with natural laws, at the same time as her treatment, enormous strides in the resultant good health are made. To underestimate a good, natural diet is to play Russian roulette with life.

Dognapped!
Having a beloved pet stolen is a doggone painful experience for the owner.Star Metro talks to some dog lovers about their ordeal.

WHEN systems analyst Rafiq Seth took a five-minute stroll recently to the nearby mamak stall to buy a takeaway lunch, he didn’t know that in that short span of time, his two beloved pet dogs would be dognapped.

On his return home, he discovered to his horror that the compound was vacant, devoid of his dogs’ usual lively barking and tail-wagging to welcome him home.

His German Shepherd Stella and Siberian Husky Oreo were nowhere to be seen.

Rafiq, who has been staying in Bandar Saujana Puchong at that time, said his neighbours had told him that well-dressed men in a Honda Jazz car had stopped outside his home that afternoon to coax his dogs.

Thinking the men were his friends, his neighbour did not give much thought to it.Read More

Tips on finding your lost pet

>Look around and inform your neighbours

>Search your property thoroughly. Cats and small dogs can get into some mighty strange places.

>Walk the neighbourhood, talk to everybody, and leave your phone number with them.

Go to each house in the area where your pet was lost and talk to the residents. Write down a description of your lost pet and your phone number and leave it with them. Leave it attached to their door if they are not home.

>Call local veterinary offices or pet stores to find out if your pet was injured and taken for treatment. Pet stores should also be informed in case a captor tries to sell a stolen pet.

>Find out if your pet has been killed on the road from local councils usually pick up dead animals from the roadside and city streets.

>It is important to post many flyers about your lost pet. Overall, flyers or posters produce more finds than anything else. Include details like the date and place the pet was lost, breed, age, sex, weight, colour and your contact details. However, do not put down your name or address on the flyer. Use a colour photograph if possible but leave out certain identifying marks to prevent scams.

>Don’t give up! Pets have been known to find their way back home after being lost for several months.
