(Health-NewsWire.Net, December 12, 2015 ) Cats and fish, wow that's a very good chemistry you can see between the two. There is a popular stereotype when it comes to the world of cats, that they love fish. I have seen my friend's cat who love to gobble down tuna. Is fish good for cats? Well the below studies by researchers would make you rethink about it.
When you think back to where cats came from, it seems a bit strange to think that their ancestors liked fish or even knew what it tasted like. Wildcats, which are domestic cat's ancestors, were land animals that would not have been so great at fishing. Instead, they found their prey in the form of rats, squirrels and mice.
Many cat owners choose to feed their cats cans of tuna or salmon on a daily basis. Some studies have found that there's link between cats who constantly eat canned food and the higher chances of hyperthyroidism, in addition to that, many fish based foods contain histamine, which can cause allergic reactions and contribute to developing allergies.
When did research on fish industry, it was found that there were no regulatory board that sets standards for fish farming. So, the salmon and tuna that you feed for your cat are often bred in unhygienic, overcrowded conditions that could lead to diseases.
Also, sea farmed fish are exposed to other harmful factors such as industrial and chemical waste. While human's immune system are good in handling these elements that the fish carry. Cats which are much smaller may not handle them.
Although scientists warn about the side effects of feeding fish to your cat, they also say that fish can be beneficial in some ways,. One thing is because fish is a great source of protein. Additionally, omega 3 fatty acids in certain fish oils can be beneficial to neural development and vision strength in your cat.
Hyperthyroidism in cats can be treated by natural means with the help of Thyroid Support Gold which comes in pure natural formula to take care of your cat's thyroid problems.
Final verdict
There are a lot reasons why fish shouldn't be the only part of your cat's diet. Even if he or she loves it, it is always good to stick with just treating them with a few spoonfuls each week.
