Appetitt cat food for overweight cats
Cat food that keeps the weight in check
Obesity in cats is a growing problem that can affect the cat’s health and quality of life. Being overweight can lead to health problems such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and overloading of joints. The causes of obesity in cats can be too much food and too little exercise, hormonal changes in connection with castration or sterilization, and changes in the metabolism as a result of ageing.
It can be difficult to assess whether your cat is overweight, but a rule of thumb is that you should be able to feel the cat’s ribs when it is in a normal position. You can also weigh the cat and compare with the normal weight for the breed/type of cat.
To avoid overweight, you should allocate the feed in controlled quantities and distribute the daily ration over 3-4 feedings per day. Stick to fixed feeding times and avoid snacks and the use of treats. It is also important to ensure that your cat gets sufficient exercise and activity.

Krill - a high-quality source of Omega 3
Krill is a raw material in Appetitt because the raw material contributes high-quality protein and good digestibility. Furthermore, the content of the essential omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA is very high compared to other available marine raw materials. The omega-3 fatty acids in krill meal are water-soluble, which means they are taken up faster and more efficiently in the body than from traditional omega-3 sources such as fish oil.
High-quality omega 3 sources are positive for the dog’s and cat’s bone and joint health, skin and coat quality as well as the development of brain and nerve functions. In addition, krill contains natural glucosamine, a functional substance that can have a positive effect on the animal’s bone and joint health.
The krill fishery has been named the world’s most sustainable reduction fishery for four years in a row. Fishing is limited to a specific region in Antarctica called area 48. The UN defines a fishery as sustainable when up to 10 percent is taken out of the stock. For the Antarctic krill fishery, the quota for area 48 is set at just 1 per cent of the biomass.
