Cats do not have nine lives, as is commonly believed in the human world. Certain breeds require special attention.

And it's not just about over-brushing or a pet's bad temper. Improper nutrition can take years off their lives.

Experts have named three cat breeds that react painfully to an unhealthy diet.

British Shorthair

Representatives of this breed are prone to obesity, which leads to problems such as diabetes and heart disease.

That's why it's so important for pet owners to monitor their diet.

Choose a balanced diet and watch portion sizes.

Sphinx

Due to the peculiarities of their body structure, these cats spend a lot of energy on maintaining temperature.

For active metabolism they require food rich in proteins and fats.

Otherwise, cats of this breed have weakened immunity, develop diseases, including skin diseases, and their lifespan is shortened.

Maine Coon

This healthy guy often faces heart disease.

The recommendations of nutrition specialists should not be ignored.

Be sure to pay attention to the fact that the food for these cats contains taurine and other essential elements.
