Why do
cats need the quality protein in Superpremium cat food
Proteins
that are found in Superpremium Cat Food are necessary
to form all
aspects of growth and development and are very important in
the structural make
up and the immune system. In
addition, they are burned as calories and can be converted
to, and stored as, fat.
In
reality, our pets do not need the protein but they need the
building
blocks that make up the protein, amino acids. There
are 22 amino
acids that animals need. Animals can synthesize
12 of them.
The remaining ones must be consumed. The ones that
the animals
cannot synthesize are called essential amino acids.
They are Arginine, Histidine, Isoleucine, Leucine,
Lysine,
Methionine, Phenylalanine, Threonine, Tryptophan,
Valine, and
in cats, Taurine. Dogs can synthesize Taurine, and
therefore, it
is not supplemented in their food. This is why
there is the
old adage that dogs can eat cat food but cats need
to eat Superpremium Cat Food
