1 your cat comes first because we care

2 Because we care you need to know By choosing PRINCESS PREMIUM cat food you are introducing your cat to a unique range of complete healthy foods that fulfils their need for a natural diet. Known to be very selective about what they eat, a cat will keep you guessing on dietary needs. They are capable of regulating their required level of nutrients and will feed accordingly, but with our greater understanding and research on the matter of you are what you eat PRINCESS foods provides the variety and balance that meets the requirements of their lifestyle. PRINCESS PREMIUM and NATURE S POWER cat foods are packed with a vast integration of high quality protein and healthy nutrients. Our foods have been tried and tested, passing through a series of tests to ensure that they are devoid of artificial flavours, colourants and preservatives - enabling us to provide a full declaration of ingredients. When choosing your pet food we recommend that you always read the label, check the ingredients and observe the quality - labels tell you what you are feeding and concentrated food means feeding less reduces the cost per meal. Beware of: Cheaper food with low-grade ingredients may cause restlessness, allergic reactions such as tummy upsets, skin and coat problems that may eventually cost you more in veterinary consultations. Derivatives cheap ingredients with little or no nutritional value - such as meat derivatives and by-products Excessive grains and cereals lower digestive enzymes, deplete metabolic energy and increase the glycemic index in blood sugar levels Artificial colourants, and additives such as BHA, BHT, ethoxyquin are known to cause strain on vital organs, increasing possible disease High levels of sodium selenite are known to cause strain on vital organs, increasing possible disease affecting blood, muscles and liver. Also common grains fed to meat producing animals may contain sodium selenite, increasing the risk of being present in the sourcing of fresh meat High alkalinity increases ph balance and for cats this will lead to poor health. Acidic urine can cause calcium oxalate stones that form in the bladder, making the passing of urine a painful process Grooming the process of cleaning the skin and coat to remove dead hair and sometimes parasites runs the risk of hairballs forming in the stomach. Regular grooming will help, especially when moulting

3 Because we care there is nothing left to chance With a unique grain free dry food - exclusive to PRINCESS PREMIUM - we also have a range of natural wet foods that are designed to fulfil the different lifestyles of each cat while offering a convenient feeding regime to pet owners who will rapidly see the benefits of these quality products. Introducing your cat to PRINCESS: changing food should be a gradual process. Mix with current food, increasing daily until the changeover is complete. As a creature of habit your cat may require some help if changing from wet to dry food. By warming wet food to body temperature palatability, texture and aroma may ease the transition. Feeding guides: Ensure that you read the feeding guide in relation to your choice of food against breed, age and weight of your cat. As selective, fussy eaters digestibility is aided by quality food and your cat will be able to judge the difference. Water should always be available but cats are sensitive to the taste of fresh clean tap water. They prefer stale water or water left out overnight. Weight watching: Extra treats for your pet are fun although they should become part of a controlled diet. Cats may be tempted to eat in the wild but by feeding a superior food they soon learn the difference and generally manage to control their intake of nutrients by feeding accordingly. Competition when feeding multiple cats may encourage overeating and obesity. Guide to a healthy weight Thin: Dull coat and general unhealthy appearance Ribs, spine and hipbones visible thin neck waist narrow abdomen concave no fat under skin Underweight: without being too thin possibly due to having worms Ribs easy to feel, spine slightly visible little fat under skin abdomen concave Ideal for weight Ribs can be felt but not visible waist visible abdomen slightly concave smooth curve from chest small amount of fat is apparent Overweight: combine with lack of exercise Ribs and spine difficult to feel due to layer of fat abdomen slightly rounded folds on flanks that vibrate when walking Obese: clearly visible Ribs are difficult to feel under a thick layer of fat Abdomen rounded flank fold prominent and will roll as the cat moves Our Guarantee to you: the key to our place in the market is to provide a product that brings good nutrition to your pets, complete with nutritional support that ensures that you know what you are feeding. 2

He was in need of good nutrition to ease his digestive issues and finding Princess Nature s Power has been a blessing. He just loves it! Enough for us to highly recommend Princess cat food to our family and friends Joe Mamo 4
