One way that you can help insure your cats health and happiness is by being certain the food you provide the cat is safe.
Take precautions to help prevent your cat and you form getting foodborne illness, including Salmonella -related illness, when handling your cats foods and treats. These products, like many other types of foods, can be susceptible to harmful bacterial contamination.
Salmonella in pet foods and pet treats can potentially cause serious infections in dogs and cats, and in people too, especially children, older people, and those with compromised immune systems. Salmonella in pet foods and pet treats can potentially be transferred to people ingesting or handling the contaminated products.
Purchase products that are in good visible condition and shoe no signs of damage to the packaging such as dents in cans or tears in bags.
Wash your hands for at least 20 seconds with hot water and soap before and after you handle your cats foods and treats. Wash the cats food bowls, dishes, and scooping utensils with soap and hot water after each use. Do not use your cats feeding bowl as a scooping utensil for its dry food-use a clean, dedicated scoop or spoon. Dispose of old or spoiled cat food products in a safe manner, such as in a securely tied plastic bag in a covered trash receptacle.
These are just a few of the things you can do to help insure that you and your cat stay healthy, happy and safe.
