Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It can happen to anyone at any time. You come across a wonderful dog or cat that is looking for a home and gives you that big-eyed look that says, "Pick me." You'll be buying dog food and treats at your local supermarket before you know it. It's simple to fall in love with your pet. Sharing your home with a canine companion can be extremely rewarding. There's no denying that dogs can provide unconditional acceptance and loyalty, as well as constant companionship and stress relief after a long or stressful day. There are a lot of things to consider if you want to keep a cat or dog as a pet. However, the most important of it is the pet's Nutrition. What will you feed it? Would you be able to tell if your cat or puppy needed to lose weight? You might not even realize your cat is overweight because they are so common. However, obese and overweight cats now outnumber healthy-weight cats, and veterinarians are seeing more super-obese dogs and cats. The issue for us is that we like to spoil our cats, and cats like to eat, so it's easy to overfeed them. Cats require more of a variety of essential nutrients, whereas dogs can survive on very little. As a result, cat food contains more protein, fat, minerals, and vitamins. Cat food is also smaller and higher in calories to accommodate their smaller mouths. How much should I give my dog in terms of food? Does the food I'm giving my dog meet his nutritional requirements? As our understanding of the relationship between diet and health advances, and the number of dog foods available grows, it's more important than ever to make feeding decisions based on sound information. Nutrient Requirements of Dogs and Cats is the basis for the information in this book.

Are you looking for a comprehensive guide on how to feed your pet (cat or dog) right? Do you wish there could be anything else you could give your dog besides meat, kibble and different store bought treats? Are you looking for food alternatives for your cat?

I can tell you with confidence; it is all one big lie! Words like 'fortified', 'natural', 'human grade', 'holistic', 'enriched' and 'enhanced' are just marketing buzzwords to make you part with your dollars for garbage, which may in fact be harming your dog/cat than anything you could feed him/her!

Because the ingredients from these foods are often waste products from the food industry, animal waste/manure (that's right), grains, pellet fiber plastics, GMO feed seed, or carcasses of diseased animals! In simple terms, they process the garbage that humans can't consume, add some unknown chemicals then pack for your pet! It is sad that we pay for that! Would you be happy to give that to your cat or dog? If you truly love, adore and value your pet a member of your family, your guess is as good as mine!

Well, this book will show you exactly how: In it, you will learn, among other things: A comprehensive background into the world of dog and cat nutrition The nutritional requirements of dogs The nutritional requirements of cats How to tell if your cat or dog is getting proper nutrition The specific components in store bought pet food that you should actively seek to avoid Tell-tale signs that something is off with whatever you are giving your pet Questions you should ask when shopping for a pet's food Foods/ingredients that you are free to give to your cat or dog and those you should not Healthy and delicious recipes you can prepare for your dog at home Healthy and delicious recipes you can prepare for your cat at home How to tell how much food to give to your dog/cat How to tell if your cat or dog is not responding well to what you gave him How to introduce the correct supplements in your dog's/cat's diet for optimal health When to consult a vet And much more What are you waiting for?
