The type of pet supplies you buy will determine the overall health of your pets. When it comes to a kitten, you need to be extra careful, as cats can be quite finicky regarding what they eat. Not that they are any kind of food connoisseurs but they just like to relish what they eat. But then the problem lies in what they eat, which can considerably affect pet health in the long run.

Getting home a new kitten might seem to be the nicest thing to do because you will have these cute pair of eyes looking curiously at you not knowing who you are but then the truth is that kittens need a lot of care, attention and health care. From their food to pet supplies and from vaccinations to vet visits and grooming, you will need to take care of everything.

Kitten Food: The most important part of pet health care is kitten food or pet supplies. Your kitten will need twice as much nutrients as an adult cat might need so that is one aspect that you will need to take care of. But at the same time they can't eat the amount of food that an adult cat can because of the small size of their tummy. So you will need to get food that has enough nutrients and is also fulfilling. When your kitten is 6 weeks old, you will need to provide him at least 4 nutritious feedings within a day and should go on for 12 weeks at the most. Once this period is over, you can feed him twice a day.

Here are some dos and don'ts for your kitten health care:

· Never feed dog food to your kitten. Dog food is for dogs and your kitten doesn't have the same metabolism of his organs doesn't function like that of a dog. This is important as it might affect pet health later on. Another important thing is that growing cats need Taurine without which they might go blind or develop severe heart conditions in the later stages of growth.
· Never feed table scraps, as it is not nutritious or wholesome food. It will not be able to supplement a milk diet and cause diarrhea as well as indigestion problems. Get pet supplies that are high in taurine and other nutritions as well as milk. Cats love milk!

Never feed liver to your kitten or any other form of canned fish that is mostly intended for dogs or even humans. This type of food normally has different levels of vitamins and hence can lead to an imbalance with respect to a requirement of vitamins A, D, and E.
Always remember that kittens, unlike humans, do not like to change their food. It is always important to remember when buying pet supplies that you can continue a regular supply of the same food. Cats have better digestive systems if they continue to have the same foods regularly, this will ensure the pet health and stop and unwanted stomach problems.
