Best Cat Treats To Feed A Growing Kitten

By Kelsey Apley 6 years agoNo Comments

Did you know there are cat treats for kittens that help them grow and are full of beneficial nutrients? I learned this a while back and was a little shocked. I thought all cat treats were created equal. If you have thought the same way, you would be wrong. Let me help break things down so you can buy some cat treats that will be beneficial to your kitten. Veterinarians recommend that around 90% of their diet comes from food and only 10% of the most treats.

Here are some cat treats that are fit for a growing kitten, what to look for in treats, and more. If you don’t find the perfect treat listed below, you at least will know what to look for in the treats. Happy shopping, and congrats on your precious kitten!

Cat Treats for Kitten Training

When you bring home a kitten they have a lot of learning ahead. You want them to not scratch up your furniture, use a litter box properly, not tear up things, and the list goes on. Some cat owners treat-train their cat to do tasks or to stop doing whatever they are not supposed to be doing. In that instance, you want to offer a treat as a reward. But because you will be rewarding your kitten so much just offer a tiny morsel of a treat so you don’t overfeed with treats.

What to Look For In Cat Treats For Kittens

I will list a handful of cat treats you might like to try, but if none stick out you can use this as a way to find different car treats for your growing kitten.

Aim to buy treats that offer nutrients and minerals and are free from fillers and additives. If you follow the 90-10 rule on cat food and cat treats you want to ensure the 10% still has benefits and can help their growing bodies. If you give treats that are full of fillers they barely benefit.

I recommend giving kitten treats up to a year old, so they can maximize their growth. Then if you want to change it up to a different brand feel free. You have a ton of variety out there to try!
