Why it matters

Cats need a complete, species-appropriate diet. PDSA recommends taking treat pieces from the cat's normal daily allowance where possible.

How to serve it

Set aside a few biscuits or a teaspoon of the usual wet food and subtract it from the day's meals. Keep all treats within about 10% of daily calories.
