Improve your cat's kibble easily with these fresh foods

The best fresh food toppers for cats include healthy food you buy for yourself. Serve fresh meat, veg, and fruits to upgrade!Show more

Adding fresh food toppers to your cat's kibble or wet food is a great way to boost nutrition.

Some fresh food is better than no fresh food!

Food toppers should be around 10-15% of your cat's total daily intake.

Don't forget to remove equal parts of your cat's current food. So that you do not overfeed your cat.

Focus on adding 1 new food topper gradually each month. Cats are very sensitive to food changes!

Acceptable fresh food toppers for cats include animal protein, low-starch veggies, and fruits.

Always buy organic, pesticide-free, hormone-free, antibiotic-free, no extra ingredients added.

Your local farm or farmer's market is perfect!

Animal protein (~90% of the 10-15%)
Boneless muscle meat (whole chunks if fed raw, preground is ok only if you cook it)
Liver (very rich, start small, few times a week)
Eggs (very rich, start small, few times a week)
Raw goat milk/kefir
Bone broth (do not feed the cooked bones!)

Veggies (for trace vitamins and minerals, ~5% of the 10-15%)
Lowest starch/carb content:
Zucchini
Broccoli
Celery
Chinese cabbage
Leafy greens like kale and spinach
Cauliflower
Other acceptable veggies include:
Bell peppers
Chard
Collards
Cucumbers
Squash
Pumpkin
Carrots
Sweet potatoes

Fruits (for trace vitamins and minerals, ~5% of the 10-15%)
Blackberries
Blueberries
Raspberries

Wash veggies and fruits very well. Discard rinds and steam veggies. Always puree veggies and fruits as much as possible! Chopping them doesn't count!

You need to puree plants to break down the cell wall and release nutrients for the best absorption.

Remember, variety is key! Do not feed the same foods every day.

For example, the broccoli family is high in iodine. Feeding these foods every day can affect the thyroid.

☠️Foods you should never feed your cat☠️
Onion, garlic, leeks, chive
Raisins, grapes, currants, sultanas
Macadamia nuts
Xylitol
Chocolate
Alcohol (ethonal)
Cooked bones
