How often should I give my cat lickable treats?
You should give your cat lickable treats occasionally as a special reward or daily if you want to create a fun routine for your cat. Just be sure lickable treats and other rewards do not exceed 10% of your cat's daily caloric intake. Consult your vet if your cat has special dietary needs, chronic illness or issues with her weight, as lickable treats may not be a good choice for cats with some health or dietary issues.
Are lickable treats healthy for cats?
Lickable treats can be healthy for cats when given occasionally and in moderation. They can make your cat happy, renew her interest in food and create healthy bonding moments you can both enjoy. However, lickable treats are not complete and balanced meals, so they cannot be used in place of your cat's regular food. A good rule of thumb is to feed less than 10% of your cat's daily calorie intake in the form or treats to avoid an unbalanced diet or undesirable weight gain.
What are lickable cat treats?
Lickable cat treats are treats in liquid or paste form that you can give as a special reward. Choose from squeezable treats, savory broths, delicious purees, gravies and more. Many lickable treats come in a tube so they can be given by hand to create a unique bonding experience with your cat. Use them as standalone treats any time or put them on top of your cat's regular food for a flavor delight!
