About Organic Pets Supplies

Not only is organic food healthier for your pet, it is better for the Earth.   When you purchase organic pet supplies, you are purchasing a bright future for our environment.  Organic pet supplies are becoming more popular and easier to purchase at local pet supply retailers.

Organic Cat Food

Most conventional feline foods are prepared with corn as the first ingredient.  Cats are considered carnivores meaning that they eat a diet primarily comprised of meat.   Although many cats eat catnip, a plant, the main ingredients that cats need are healthy high protein meats.  It is important that more than half of all cats have allergies to corn.  The health of your cat, in terms of allergic reactions and weight control largely depends upon your selection of diet for the pet.  Choosing an organic cat food high in vitamins and protein will ensure the health of your beloved pet for many years.

Organic Dog Food

Very much like cats, more than half of all dogs have some type of allergy to corn.  It is important to choose a dog food that will benefit your dog's health.  Rice is an acceptable first and primary ingredient for organic dog foods because most dogs are not allergic to rice, and rice has many beneficial qualities for canines including fiber and providing calories. 

Organic Pet Food Ingredients

Organic pet food must be labeled as certified organic by the USDA in order to legally contain organic ingredients.  Some brands offer slogans such as, made with organic ingredients.”  This means that 70 percent of the ingredients are organic, while others are not.  Look for pet supplies that are officially labeled by the USDA, or the Organic Trade Association (OTA) in order to be sure that the pet food is made from certified organic ingredients.
