Persian Cats & Food Recommendations

In the past decade or so, most Persian cat owners have become more aware that their Persian cats need a good diet for optimal health. However, most of us have been so inundated with "this brand is better than that brand" by the media and pet food companies that many people are confused as to what constitutes a "good" food.

After many years of trying many different brands of food for our pets, we have found that a "fixed formula" pet food is the best. A fixed formula food is one that no matter what the price of the ingredients, the food is made the same each and every time. Grocery store foods are not made that way. Whatever is cheapest when the pet food company goes to make their food is what is in there the most. Corn is something that many foods contain as it is a cheap filler. However, corn is not easily digestible by cats and dogs. Therefore, in our opinion, corn should not be in the top 3 ingredients.

Cat and dog food should be a meat based formula. A good, fixed-formula food is essential to good health. As with humans, we are what we eat. It goes without saying that if your cat has a good diet, there may well be less health problems - thus fewer vet costs.

We have compiled a list of different cat foods that we recommend for your Persian cat or Persian kitten. They are not listed in any particular order or preference. Please click on each link below to be taken to a page on this web site with information on that specific brand of food. Each page will contain contact information, list of ingredients, guaranteed analysis, and caloric content.

We recommend that you feed your Persian kitten or Persian cat one of the foods listed on this page. As we discover other foods we like, we will list them. This list is by no means, a complete list, nor is meant to endorse ONLY these foods.

We also use and highly recommend NuVet Plus vitamin and mineral supplement.

We feed Royal Canin Persian cat formula to all our Persian cats.
