The nutritional needs are well covered by these recipes for cats with a balanced ratio of high protein and low carbohydrate content:

• 85% meat : High-quality proteins from chicken, beef and pork are the necessary protein building blocks for cats.

• 15% Shrimp : Shrimp are not only rich in taurine, but are also said to support heart function, eye health and nerve health.

• 5% offal : Essential vitamins such as vitamin A, but also minerals such as iron and zinc are contained in this food group.

• Egg yolk : Healthy fats and lecithin give your cat a shiny coat and healthy skin.

• Protein content : Swap the pork for chicken and the pork to make it lower in fat.
• Higher protein content : For active or growing cats, you can add more chicken or beef to the food to make the recipes more varied.
• More seafood : If there are health requirements (e.g. heart or eye problems), the proportion of shrimp can be increased or supplemented with salmon.
• Reduction of offal : To avoid excessive intake of vitamin A, the proportion of offal should not exceed 5% .

• Complementary foods : To use these recipes as a complete cat food, additional vitamins and minerals must be added.
• Observe : Pay attention to your cat's behavior, especially her coat, energy level and digestion, to make sure she is tolerating the food well.

If you don't feel like cleaning offal , there is a simple solution. Freeze-dried meat is a great alternative. It is convenient and contains important nutrients. Your cat gets what it needs. You can serve it immediately. Or add it to meals as a supplement. This makes the food more varied and healthier.
