Many cat and cat owners neuter (castrate) their pets. But few people know that after this operation the animal needs special nutrition and care.
How to keep a spayed cat?
After castration (sterilization) of your pet, do not forget that he (she) begins hormonal changes in the body - the production of sex hormones decreases, which leads to a slowdown in metabolic processes, and therefore can cause excess weight and obesity. The character of cats becomes more calm, imposing, movements are slow and lazy.
These factors make the spayed representatives of the feline tribe more vulnerable to the development of various diseases, especially crystalluria (urolithiasis).

The most important thing in caring for pets after spaying is the correct diet. Of course, you need to make sure that your pet does not scratch the site of the operation and does not introduce an infection there. Currently, special low-calorie foods are produced for sterilized cats, which are divided into 4 classes: economy, premium, super-premium and holistic.
Consider the advice of experts when switching to a special diet.
- It is necessary to carry out such a transition gradually, slowly adding a little new feed to the usual one.
- During the month, carefully monitor all changes in the appearance of your pet. If you notice something amiss - for example, the coat has lost its usual shine, or the cat (cat) has difficulty with stool, this may be a sign of individual intolerance to any ingredient in the mixture.
In such a situation, it is recommended to consult a veterinarian and change the brand of dry food.

Peculiarities
Dry mixes of this class are made exclusively from high quality natural fresh products.Unfortunately, this also affects the cost of the feed. In addition, it is not so easy to find holistic food in stores, even specialized ones. These are the main disadvantages of this product. Minor negative points include a possible increase in waste (stool).
The advantages of this class of feed include:
- the composition is ideally balanced and will provide your pet with all the necessary vitamins and nutrients, moreover, of natural origin and of high quality;
- a small amount of phosphorus compounds;
- the level of acidity of urine when consuming holistic feed remains at an optimal level;
