What are the ingredients in 9 lives cat food?
The ingredients differ slightly, depending on the type and flavour of the food. However, here are some examples from the "basic" foods for this brand.Ingredients for the "Daily" dry food:Whole ground corn, poultry by-product meal, corn gluten meal, soybean meal, whole wheat, meat & bone meal, animal fat (preserved with mixed tocopherols), salmon, chicken, beef, animal digest, salt, phosphoric acid, choline chloride, titanium dioxide, potassium chloride, vitamins (vitamin E supplement, niacin supplement, d-calcium pantothenate, thiamine mononitrate, riboflavin supplement, vitamin A supplement, pyridoxine hydrochloride, menadione sodium bisulfite complex, folic acid, biotin, vitamin B12 supplement, vitamin D3 supplement), taurine, minerals (ferrous sulfate, zinc oxide, manganous oxide, copper sulfate, calcium iodate, sodium selenite), red 40, yellow 5, yellow 6, potassium sorbate (used as a preservative), BHA (used as a preservative), blue 1, rosemary extract.The dry food lists as Corn as the first ingredient, and has a lot of other cereals in the list. Ideally, the named meat sources should be first (or even the first two or three) in the list. The dry food seems to have more grain than meat. Cats have trouble digesting high levels of carbohydrates, and in some cases, can cause food allergies.The first meat source is "poultry by-product meal", meaning that the low quality leftover bits (heads, intestines, feet, etc.) have had all the moisture and fat taken out and rendered in a form easily used for kibble. This, compared to "salmon, chicken, beef" further down the line, is a much cheaper and lower quality protein. This also goes for the "meat & bone meal".Ingredients from "Tender Nibbles with Real Chicken in Gravy" Wet Food:Water sufficient for processing, meat by-products, chicken, fish, wheat flour, soy protein concentrate, modified starch, steamed bone meal, animal digest, guar gum, titanium dioxide, sodium tripolyphosphate, potassium chloride, caramel color, choline chloride, salt, taurine, vitamins (vitamin E supplement, vitamin A supplement, thiamine mononitrate, niacin supplement, d-calcium pantothenate, riboflavin supplement, pyridoxine hydrochloride, menadione sodium bisulfite complex, vitamin D3 supplement, folic acid, biotin, vitamin B12 supplement), minerals (ferrous sulfate, zinc oxide, manganous oxide, copper sulfate, calcium iodate, sodium selenite), iron oxide.The wet food is better. Much less grains, save for the "wheat flour" and "modified starch". "Meat by-products" isn't the best quality protein, but "chicken, fish" are third and fourth on the list which bumps up the protein quality and quantity."soy protein concentrate" also adds to the protein levels. However, this is plant protein, not meat protein. Cats cannot digest plants. Guar gum is used as a food thickener, so does not offer any nutrients.
What are eggs that are not fertile?
Non viable eggs or eggs from a chicken that are not fertile are called, Good Food Eggs have a high nutrient density because they provide significant amounts of vitamins and minerals, yet contain only 71 calories. They are an excellent source of high-quality protein (i.e. they contain all the essential amino acids), as well as many B vitamins. The yolk of an egg provides three quarters of the calories and all or most of the fat, phosphorus, iron, zinc, vitamins B6, B12 and A, folic acid, pantothenic acid, choline and thiamin. The yolk provides almost half of the protein and riboflavin of the whole egg. Egg yolks are also one of the few foods naturally containing vitamin D. The white or albumen contains more than half of the egg's total protein and riboflavin.
What do guinea pigs eat?
Guinea pigs are strict vegetarians, and in addition to their pellets, they will eat fruits and vegetables, bread, and will even nibble on vegetarian dog biscuits.As Guinea Pigs cannot produce vitamin C, it is important to feed them proprietary food with added vitamin C added. A very good source of vitamin C can be found in oranges, most Guinea Pigs love a segment of orange to eat.If you have one, and are seeking to feed & care for it properly visit your nearest book-store or library and get a book on the subject of "caring for Guinea pigs/Cavies"A more general reply is "plant material": leaves, grass, hay, fruit, vegetables etc. Hay comes in several varieties; the best is called timothy. Be sure not to feed them alfalfa though because it can cause kidney problems. They cant eat lettuce because it gives them a bad stomach.guinea pigs can have rabbit pellets hamster food vegatables and guine pig pelletsGuineas cannot have rabbit pellets or hamster food as it is not nutritious enough stick to guinea foodbe sure to introduce new food gradually so u dnt uPset little tummies they need a constant supply of hay and water and vitamin C is essentialfruit and veg is loved. But not too much fruit and they musnt eat potato, onion, parsnip, iceburg lettuce or avacado. THEY LOVE CUCUMBERHope this helps :)Good foods for guinea pigs to eat are: apples, bananas, pears, strawberries, grapefruit, honeydew melon, kiwis, tangerines, yellow plums, oranges, watermelon, grapes, lemons, cauliflower leaves, broccoli, turnips, peppers, parsley, red beets, cucumbers, celery, spinach, tomatoes, and zucchini.Bad foods for guinea pigs to eat are: Iceberg lettuce, all varieties of green cabbage, Chinese cabbage, cauliflower, and red cabbage.Poisonous foods for guinea pigs to eat are: Potato peelings and raw beans. As for the actual potato, there has been some confusion about whether they are or aren't poisonous to guinea pigs. To be on the safe side, I would suggest not feeding your guinea pig potatoes.Hay is another good food for guinea pigs. It is the basic food for guinea pigs. If you feed them hay along with water, it is suitable for the winter! This is only if no fresh veggies or fruits are available.You can gather plants from outside to give to guinea pigs. They absolutely love outdoor greens! Just make sure that there are no flowers or dried tree leaves in the bundle you pick. If there are any leaves or flowers in it, cut them out and give only the plant leaves and stalks to your guinea pig. Grass is also considered a treat to guinea pigs! If you do decide to collect outdoor plants, do not get them if they grow near roads or sidewalks, or have been treated with pesticides!Toilet paper tubes and paper towel tubes are completely fine for guinea pigs to eat. It gives them something to chew on to help their teeth, as well as something to play with. It is also like an in-between meal for them, when they aren't eating anything else.Pellets are a part of a regular guinea pig diet. They have some vitamins and minerals added, so they are really healthy. Guinea pigs don't consider them a treat unless there are extra dried fruits or nuts added to them.Salt and mineral wheels are optional. Salt wheels are exactly what they are called. It is salt formed into the shape of a wheel that can be attached to the cage. Then the guinea pig can chew on it anytime it feels like it! The mineral wheel is a mix of minerals and salt. It is usually a reddish color, unlike the salt wheel that is always white.Vitamin C is very important to guinea pigs! They can get this from fresh fruits. Oranges have a particular big amount of Vitamin C. Vitamin C helps fight infections in guinea pigs, as well as to heal wounds. It also helps break down and metabolize proteins in the guinea pig's diet.Clean andfresh water is necessary for guinea pigs to live. It is pretty much necessary for any living thing on Earth! Change the water whenever needed, preferably once every two-three days.The entire digestive tract of a guinea pig is about 2.3 meters long.These materials are needed for a guinea pigs' survival: Vitamins, minerals, carbohydrate, fats, proteins, and of course, water!These vitamins are needed for a guinea pig to survive: Vitamin A, Vitamin B12, Thiamine, Riboflavin, Vitamin D, Vitamin E, and Vitamin K.These minerals are needed for a guinea pig to survive: Calcium, Copper, Iron, Magnesium, Phosphorous, Potassium, and Sodium.Guinea pigs are not able to store water for a long period of time, and that is why it is necessary to replenish their water any time the water bottle gets low. Every cell needs the water, so guinea pigs have to drink almost constantly.Guinea pigs are also able to eat dirt. This may sound funny, but it is true. Dirt has vitamins and minerals and nutrients that guinea pigs need, and apparently, they seem to like it!Guinea pigs will occasionally eat their own feces (poops). The feces still contain some leftover nutrients, and so the guinea pigs eat them. This is sort of a way of recycling. It will not hurt them, and it will actually help them live, because of the materials within them.Wow this took a long time.Guinea pigs eat veges such as carrot, tomato,oranges,green leaf lettuce,grass & dandilion leafs for mostly treats. for regular feeding give them guinea pig pettets that can be purchased at any pet store. they can also eat timothy hay or alfalfa. hope I helped! :)any vegetable apart from potato hay and corncommercial guineapig "cereal" stuff wich is dry an comes in a packet.clean waterOk guinea pigs need good pellets. Dont buy anything with dried fruit or anything in it just pellets. Guinea pigs need a cup of lettuce each day and a half a cup of fruits and veggies each day. They also need an unlimited supply of timothy hay. You can get a bale of it very cheap at your local feed store. For the lettuce you can give them romaine lettuce, and springmix. No iceburg lettuce it has no nutritional value. For fruits and veggies they can have green bell pepper (not spicy) blueberrys, apple, cucumbers, and they also love grass. Guinea pigs can not have any dairy products, nuts, meat, or carrots. Many people think guinea pigs can have carrots that is not true. Carrots have a large amount of sugar in them and can cause kidney and bladder stones. You can give guinea pigs treats called nibble rings.They eat lots of green veggies, carrots, lettuce, apples and pea straw but steer clear of too many acidic foods. They also need to gnaw on bark, salt licks or wood to keep their teeth down
