How to feed a Persian cat

Diet has a direct effect on the health, digestion and coat shine of the Persian cat. Being a long-haired breed, it needs specific care.

What to feed

  • High-quality food rich in animal protein;
  • Formulas made for long-haired cats (they help against hairballs);
  • A good balance of kibble and wet food;
  • Always fresh, clean water.

What to avoid

  • Human food, salt, sweets and chocolate;
  • Cheap food low in protein;
  • Too much dry kibble without enough hydration.
