There is ample
scientific evidence that proper nutrition and correct eating habits can enhance
health, performance and longevity. We are starting to understand that the
over-processing and chemical additives which add color and texture can destroy
much of the nutritional value of both people food and pet food.
Today, the choice of a nutritionally superior food for pets should be based
on an informed understanding and appreciation of ingredient quality and product
formulation.
Essential Taurine
The high quality Chicken Meal provides Taurine, an essential amino acid for cats,
at much higher levels than the poultry byproducts used in most cat foods. It is
important for eyes, heart, nervous and reproductive systems.
Fats
The human grade Fat Source has no Ethoxyquin. It is naturally
preserved with Vitamin E. Fats provide energy and include essentials for cell
structure, hormones, enzymes and fat soluble vitamins. FLINT RIVER RANCH
guarantees not less than 20% crude fat.
Feline Urological Syndrome
There is little doubt that F.U.S. is directly related to the cat's life style
and diet. Low Ash and Magnesium are important in the prevention of F.U.S. FLINT
RIVER RANCH Feline Formula has less than 5.5% ash content and Magnesium of 0.095%.
This promotes low urinary pH and helps prevent F.U.S.

Cat and Kitten Feeding
Cats are finicky eaters. Tests show that besides
flavor and aroma, texture and shape are very important in determining cat food
palatability. Cats first smell their food; if it passes this test, shape then
becomes important because it determines the way it feels and breaks apart in the
cat's mouth.
The price of cat food, like other products, most often depends on the grade
and quality. Flint River Ranch cat food will actually be cheaper to feed
than other foods costing less. You will be able to see the difference in your
cat's healthy skin, coat and energy level. Healthy nutrition can also mean less
medical bills. They believe your cat deserves the best possible food and health.
Fresh water should be available at all times as your cat will drink more
water when fed dry food. Super Premium foods should be introduced by mixing with
your cats regular dry food with increasing amounts over several days.
Young kittens may be started on Flint River Ranch by mixing with a little
warm water. Feed food dry as soon as the kittens teeth are strong enough to chew
hard food (8 to 10 weeks). Feed kittens about 3 times a day - after 6 months
twice a day.
Adult cats (1 year) can be fed once or twice a day. This depends upon what
keeps your cat happy. Your cat should be looking for food when the next meal is
due. Teach them to eat at meal times. The amount your cat eats in 15- 20 minutes
is about the amount they should be fed at that meal. Adjust the food as you
notice increase or decrease in the animal's weight.
Information About Ingredients
PROTEIN: The amino acids provided by the Chicken and Lamb Meal are the basic
building blocks of muscle, skin, coat, bone, blood and the immune system. The
most important ingredient in a cat's diet is protein. We guarantee protein
analysis of not less than 32%.
CHICKEN MEAL - The chicken we use is strictly human quality chicken flesh and
edible skin, the same as you would serve your family. Our chicken meal, and
other meat ingredients, do not contain ANY byproducts such as feet, heads, beaks,
feathers, hides, hoofs, intestines, as are commonly found in many so-called
"quality" pet foods.
BEET PULP - Beet pulp (after the sugar has been extracted) is by far the best
source of fiber for companion animals. It does a much better, and safer, job of
moving the nutrients through the digestive system and assisting in stool
formation. Compare this with the peanut hulls, cottonseed, corn cobs, citrus
pulp, noxious weeds, straw and other fillers often used in other pet foods.
WHEAT BASE - Wheat is far easier to digest than corn or soybean. Utilizing a
combination of various grains, such as ground wheat, wheat flour, wheat germ
meal and ground rice, is much healthier than simply a single type of grain.
PRESERVATIVES - Food spoils without some form of temperature control or the
use of preservatives. Chemical preservatives are NOT acceptable at Flint River
Ranch. We use, instead, only natural Vitamin E in a fat-soluble compound known
as Tocopherol, which works just fine as a preservative for up to twelve months
("peak" preservation for up to six months). Vitamin E is also an antioxidant
that retards the oxidation of other vitamins in our food. If necessary, our
food may be frozen to preserve freshness
The Chicken and Lamb Meal formula is manufactured under carefully controlled
conditions and temperatures - resulting in better nutrition, palatability and
digestibility for your pet. The secret to good nutrition is not how many nutrients
are present in a cat's food, but rather, how available they are and how efficiently
they can be utilized when digested. High digestibility means your pet requires
less food and produces smaller, firmer stools and less cleanup.
Our Chicken Meal and other meat sources do not contain poultry byproducts or
other byproducts like chicken feet, chicken heads, duck beaks, feathers, hides,
hoofs and intestines. The use of low quality products and chemical preservatives
may be associated with dry skin, allergic reactions, dental disease, poor health
and degenerative organ dysfunction.
Beet pulp is by far the best source of fiber. It does a better job of moving
the nutrients through the digestive systems and acts as a calming base for
forming the stool in the colon. Vitamins, minerals and nutrients are first
digested in the stomach - then absorbed into the blood through the intestinal
walls. If those walls are covered with slime/mucus - absorption of these
life-sustaining nutrients is reduced. Beet pulp gently massages intestinal
walls, removing the mucus and aids in the bowel movement.
