Understanding Your Cat’s Diet

Your cat won’t tell you when dinner’s wrong. They’ll just stop eating, start scratching more, or lose that glossy coat you love.

Cats need proper nutrition at every stage of life, and choosing the right food can mean the difference between a healthy, energetic companion and one that’s constantly under the weather.

Boneve premium cat nutrition is made to match what cats actually need, built around their biological requirements.

What Cats Actually Need

Cats are cute and fluffy but their bodies are wired to extract nutrition from prey, not processed grains or plant proteins. Understanding these core nutritional needs helps you spot quality food that’s good for their overall health.

Protein
Cats are obligate carnivores, which means their bodies are designed to run on meat. They can’t synthesise certain amino acids from plant sources like dogs or humans can, so they need real animal protein to survive. High-protein freeze-dried cat food gives what their bodies need to thrive.

Fat
Quality fats from animal sources power everything from daily energy levels to brain function. That silky, glossy coat you love? That comes from proper fat intake too. Cats also need specific fatty acids like omega-3 and omega-6 that only animal fats provide in the right ratios.

Fibre
A small amount keeps digestion running smoothly and helps prevent hairballs. Cats only need minimal fibre since their short digestive tracts are built to process meat, not plants.

Vitamins and minerals
B vitamins for energy, taurine for heart health, calcium for bones. Cats must have these to survive, and deficiencies show up fast in poor coat quality, lethargy, or worse. Unlike dogs, cats can’t make taurine themselves, so it has to come from their food.

A kitten burning through calories needs different food than a senior cat who naps 20 hours a day. And if your cat has sensitive digestion, joint problems, or skin issues, you’ll need functional ingredients for cat health that target those specific needs.

Different Diets for Cats in Singapore

Cats have wildly different nutritional needs depending on their age, breed, activity level, and health conditions. What works brilliantly for a hyperactive kitten might leave a senior cat feeling sluggish. Let’s break down the types of food available for your cat and how to choose wisely.

Kibble
Convenient, shelf-stable, and easy to portion out for busy cat owners. Cats who prefer nibbling throughout the day do well on kibble since it sits in the bowl without spoiling. Just check the ingredient list to make sure real meat comes first, not fillers like corn or wheat.

Canned food
Higher moisture content helps cats stay hydrated since most cats don’t drink enough water on their own. The rich aroma and soft texture work wonders for fussy eaters and senior cats dealing with dental problems. Just watch out! Once you pop that tin open, it spoils fast in Singapore’s heat, so portion carefully.

Raw meals
Mimics what cats would eat in the wild, complete with organs and bone for natural nutrition. Many pet parents report shinier coats and better digestion once their cats adjust. It needs freezer space and careful handling to keep it fresh in Singapore’s humid climate.

Freeze-dried
Combines the nutritional benefits of raw food with the convenience of kibble. Lightweight, nutrient-dense, and cats love the taste once you rehydrate it with water. Perfect for Singapore’s compact kitchens where freezer space runs out fast.

Home-cooked
Gives you complete control over what goes into your cat’s bowl, which is brilliant if they react badly to certain ingredients. You can tailor every meal to match exactly what your cat needs. Just make sure you do your homework first or chat with your vet about getting the balance right, because missing something crucial like taurine can lead to serious health problems down the line.

Mixing kibble and freeze-dried meals for cats gives your cat access to a wider range of nutrients than feeding just one type. Sprinkle Boneve freeze-dried products over regular kibble when your cat needs extra protein. You can also toss some kibble into a freeze-dried meal when you want to add crunch and variety. Your cat benefits from both food types working together, filling gaps that a single diet might miss.

Chicken & Salmon: The Benefits of Freeze-Dried Cat Nutrition

Your cat’s food bowl doesn’t have to be complicated. But it should be good.

Freeze-dried cat food has quietly become one of the trusted choices for pet parents who want their cats eating something that resembles actual prey, without the hassle of raw feeding. No defrosting and salmonella paranoia too.

Boneve’s Chicken & Salmon recipe is right at the top of that pile. It is balanced, nutrient-dense, and made to support cats’ health and wellbeing every day.

What Freeze-drying Actually Does

Freeze-drying takes the good (intact nutrients, natural enzymes, amino acids that are not overly cooked) and eliminates the sketchy parts. By removing water without heat, it captures nutrients at their freshest.

Your cat gets all the rawness without the risk. High palatability, proper nutrition, and you don’t need to quarantine your kitchen afterward.

If your cat’s been turning their nose up at meals, it’s not an attitude. They’re obligate carnivores and their bodies are built for meat. Freeze-dried cat food gives them pure, protein-rich meals similar to the taste of the wild.

Why Chicken and Salmon Work Together

Mealtime is more than just food for your cat, it’s a little boost for their body and mind.

The chicken in their bowl keeps their muscles strong and their energy steady, without leaving them sluggish. It’s also one of the most palatable proteins for fussy eaters. Gentle on sensitive stomachs, easy to digest.

The salmon quietly does its magic behind the scenes. Omega-3s are keeping their skin and coat shiny, their brain sharp, and their heart healthy.

Together? They are a complete package. High-protein, balanced across all life stages, and genuinely delicious. Even picky cats, the ones who sniff, judge, and walk away, tend to dive straight in.

Why New Zealand Makes All the Difference

Some proteins just don’t compare. In New Zealand, chickens roam free and salmon swim in cold, sparkling waters. The farming is transparent, properly regulated, and held to seriously high food safety standards. No shortcuts or dodgy practices that make you think twice.

Feeding your cat Boneve Chicken and Salmon means they’re getting protein from one of the cleanest, most trusted places on Earth. And that’s a little extra peace of mind for you too.

What’s Not in the Bowl Matters Too

You should not need a magnifying glass to feel confident about what you’re feeding your cat. Boneve keeps things honest.

For some cats, grains can be hard to digest and may contribute to weight gain, blood sugar spikes, and food sensitivities. They can also cause allergies and upset stomachs.

With Boneve, we skipped the grains and mystery fillers. No “meat by-products” that raise more questions than answers. We use real ingredients that you and your cat can recognise. Freeze-dried to keep the nutrients in. Mealtime becomes simple and stress-free for both you and your cat.

What Makes Boneve Freeze-dried Chicken & Salmon Special

This isn’t just another premium cat food sitting on a shelf. It’s food built for real cats. The fussy ones who sniff once and walk away, the ones with dodgy stomachs, and the ones who need proper nutrition without all the rubbish filler.

High protein? Check. Nutrient retention that honestly rivals raw feeding? It’s all there. Grain-free and balanced for kittens, adults, senior cats, whatever stage your little one’s at. You can serve it as a complete meal or use it as a natural freeze-dried cat food as a topper over their usual food.

Boneve brings you arguably the best chicken and salmon cat food in Singapore. Ethically made, rigorously tested, and built to last. It’s nourishment that keeps your cat healthy and gives you peace of mind.
