Natural foods are a healthy alternative for cats.

However, if you initially fed your pet only dry analogues, it may be quite difficult to accustom them to something new.

There are three effective methods that will help you quickly retrain your cat.

The method of accustoming

One of the simplest methods of transferring a cat to natural food is to gradually replace store-bought food with natural food.

In the first 3-4 days, you add 25% natural food to the dry food, in the next 4-5 days, natural food should already make up half of the portion, then the content of store-bought food is reduced by a third.

The cat should completely switch to natural food within 2 weeks.

Alternation method

In this case, there is an intermediate link - wet food.

In the first two weeks, you will need to accustom the cat to wet food, and after another two weeks, start feeding it meat. And the animal will not even notice that something is wrong.

Substitution method

The most radical method involves simply stopping feeding specialized food one day and completely replacing it with natural food without any transition.
