Summer Nutrition for Cats: What to Serve Your Feline During the Warm Months?

by Lilou Bastet

Wet diet
Increasing the proportion of wet foods in your cat's diet can help maintain hydration during hot months, as these foods contain more than 70% water.

Frozen Treats
Homemade frozen treats, like broth or puree ice cubes, can be a refreshing and appetizing way to keep your cat hydrated.

Weight monitoring
Being overweight can increase your cat's sensitivity to heat. Monitor his weight and adjust his diet accordingly to help him stay active and healthy during the summer.

Light and frequent meals
During hot periods, opt for smaller, more frequent meals instead of large meals, this can help maintain your cat's energy without overloading their digestive system.
