Unfortunately,yourcat cannottellyouinwords whatisbothering himorher,soyoumusttry tolook forsigns andsymptoms yourself andbeaware ofanychanges inbehavior. Many pet owners areshocked tolearn thatwhattheyarefeeding theirdog orcat canbewhatiscausing theproblem.90 percent ofcat food allergies arerelated tobeef,dairy,orfish. Ofcourse theremaybeothertriggers thatset offreactions inyourcat,soyoumayhavetospend a bit oftime trying different formulas offood tosee whatworks best foryourcat.
