Cod liver oil is a key ingredient in the early phases of a cat's life. For this reason you can find it in our Cat&CO Wellness Kitten .
It seems that in some phases of cat's life, the direct consumption of very long-chain omega-3s is particularly healthy. More specifically when cats are young and their brain growth is in progress, during cats’ pregnancy and lactation and growing puppies.
Cod liver oil is one of the dietary sources of omega-three that contain eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). EPA and DHA are two essential fatty acids that are useful for the growth of animal tissues.
All the known benefits of cod liver oil
Omega-3 fatty acids soften your cat's coat by giving it a nice shine and they fight inflammation as well. This helps cats that suffer from autoimmune disorders, arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease and it increases skin, heart and eye health.Cats need vitamin A coming from sources such as cod liver oil because they are not able to convert the plant-derived type.Without vitamin A, cats can suffer from eye problems and they are more vulnerable to coat and skin problems.
Vitamin D strengthens cat's bones and it help his body in using and retaining calcium. It also allows cats’ nervous system and muscles to function properly.
Supplements or a balanced recipe: what is the best solution?
As is recommended nature, the best option is not to overdo: a high quality dry food already contains the correct amount of omega-3s. Supplements may be unnecessary. An excessive use of cod liver oil can lead your cat to refuse food, lose weight and it could eventually damage your cat's bones.
