Why a Neutered cat food?

While neutering has many positive benefits, it does mean that your kitten or cat’s needs can change. Neutered cats can be more at risk of developing urinary tract infections. They are also more likely to stay closer to home or spend more time in their home. This means they have a higher chance of weight gain and hairballs. A specialised diet helps to support all of these additional needs.

Neutered Cat FAQs

While neutering has many benefits, it does mean a cat’s needs can change. Your feline friend will require fewer calories as his or her body has less work to do. In fact, just 48 hours after neutering cats need an estimated 20% fewer calories. Neutered cats are also more likely to have urinary tract infections and it can increase the likelihood of hairballs.

To help your neutered cat stay in the best of health it’s a good idea to regularly monitor their weight and switch to a diet specially created for neutered cats that supports the changes your cat may experience. Simply reducing your cat’s intake of their original food may lead to your cat lacking in essential vitamins and minerals.

Tasty kibbles of crunchy goodness – what’s not to love? A high quality complete dry food will ensure your cat gets all the protein, vitamins and minerals they need to stay in tip-top condition. Unlike wet cat food, dry cat food stays fresh inside the pack until you’re ready to serve it to your cat. And that’s not all! Other benefits include:

Free feeding – As dry food can be left out because it won’t spoil, this suits those cats who prefer to graze their food over the day rather than at specific mealtimes.
Helpful for healthy teeth – Munching on crunchy kibble encourages chewing and helps to keep teeth clean.
Makes feeding more fun – Dry food is easier to use with food dispensers and puzzle toys, providing environmental enrichment and mental stimulation.
Portion control – By following the on-pack instructions, it’s easy to measure out exactly the right sized portion to help your cat maintain a healthy weight.

Every cat is an individual and will have their own feeding preferences – which they will no doubt let you know about!

Adult cats are generally fed twice a day. Alternatively, as cats in the wild naturally eat lots of small meals per day, you could try splitting their daily intake into several small meals (unless advised otherwise by your vet). Providing dry cat food in a variety of ways, such as in treat balls or cat puzzles, can deliver a much more exciting and rewarding experience for your cat.

By following the on-pack instructions, it’s easy to measure out exactly the right sized portion that’s suitable for your cat’s age and lifestyle. For instance, house cats may need less calories than cats who spend much of their day roaming outdoors. The golden rule is don’t guestimate – measure out accurate portions. Giving your cat a little more than they need means they could become overweight. If you don’t feed enough, your cat will not be getting all the nutrients they need and will become underweight.

Make sure to supply plenty of fresh water too, in a separate place to their feeding area. Lots of cats aren’t keen on drinking water from a bowl, preferring moving water to still – so it may be worth investing in a cat fountain if you don’t want them drinking from a dripping tap!

All Burgess cat food comes with recommended portion sizes on the pack. However, if you’re still unsure, then we recommend contacting your local veterinary practice. You can also get in touch with us using our online contact form.

Industry body, UK Pet Food has a useful Cat Size-O-Meter that can help you identify if your cat is very thin, thin, normal, overweight or obese, but it’s important to ask your vet to check your cat’s body condition score. As a guide:

You should be able to see and feel your cat’s ribs, spine and hip bones.
Your cat’s waist should be clearly visible when viewed from above.
Your cat’s belly shouldn’t be sagging underneath, there should only be a small amount of belly fat.

Being overweight can significantly impact on a cat’s health and wellbeing. If your cat is overweight, your vet can advise you about the best ways to help your cat reach their ideal body condition and enjoy life to the full.

Cats can be neutered at any age and, if you have a kitten, they can be neutered from when they are four months old. Your vet will be able to advise you. Feline health and wellbeing experts recommend that neutering is one of the kindest things you can do for your cat as it has many benefits.

The benefits of neutering a female cat can include:

Preventing behaviours associated with being in ‘heat’, which can include calling, spraying, and trying to escape or wandering further than normal.
Reducing the risk of womb infections.
Helping your cat to stay healthy. Female cats can have up to 18 kittens a year, which is a lot of extra mouths for owners to feed and rehome, and can cause females to lose condition and be more vulnerable to disease.

The benefits of neutering a male cat can include:

Reducing the risk of them roaming far away to find a mate, therefore making it less likely they will get lost or injured in a car accident.
Reducing the risk of them fighting with other males, which in turn can help to prevent them contracting and spreading infectious disease such as feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) and feline leukaemia virus (FeLV).
Reducing the risk of spraying in the house – something unneutered cats do to mark their scent to appeal to potential female mates.
