Castor and Pollux Organix Organic Cat Treats

Even Overweight Kitties Can Enjoy These Natural Treats

Cindy Leggett
In my experience with cats, chicken is usually a favorite food. I've also found that all cats enjoy receving treats from their owners a couple of times a day. But, when you have a cat, or, as in my case, cats, who are a touch overweight, you tend to scrutinize what you give them so as not to add to the weight problem. The treats available in a regular grocery store just aren't suitable for a chubby kitty. Plus, I always try to go as natural as I can when it comes to feeding my pets, choosing foods that at least have an ingredient list I can pronounce. Those jars and packages in the treat section can be a study in chemical terms as you try to figure out what each ingredient is.

Enter Castor and Pollux Organix Organic Cat Treats. They are small in size and shaped like a little chicken drumstick, but don't let the cuteness of this treat fool you. At less than two calories each, even overweight animals can enjoy a nice sized portion. This nutritional information also bodes well for normal weight cats, as they can have their treats and stay fit and trim. As an owner of both feline body types, this is my favorite type of treat to buy, as all my cats can enjoy it, and I don't have to feel guilty about giving them treats. Not only are they good for weight control and management, they are just plain good for cats!

Organix Cat Treats are made with 95% organic ingredients. Most of the foods we humans eat cannot make that claim! I happen to think it's important to feed as natural a diet as possible. Cats are small animals and most don't eat large amounts of food, so what they do consume should be highly nutritious. These treats top my personal list of nutritious kitty foods. The chicken formula contains chicken, barley, peas, brown rice, oats, flaxseed - all top notch ingredients that you will be proud to feed to your cat in treat form. The cheese formula contains a natural cheese flavor, and the seafood formula contains a natural seafood flavor. All three formulas contain herring meal, a feline favorite.

My cats absolutely adore these treats. In fact, they enjoy them so much that I feed the three formulas in rotation with a few other high quality, natural cat treats. This way, they don't get tired of one kind as quickly. Variety is important in a cat's diet. They may seem to enjoy the same old thing day in and day out, and while many cats live long and healthy lives consuming the same foods over and over, they appreciate a well thought out change in diet as much as we do. Castor and Pollux Organix Organic Cat Treats are one of the healthiest ways I know of to make your cat's snack time a little brighter.
