Here only the Persian does not hurry to catch mice and not any breeder of expensive thoroughbred cat will be enraptured with such food for the pet. Therefore at a diet of a cat there have to be a meat and fish. Choose low-fat beef, best of all not frozen. Cut meat small pieces and give to an animal with addition of boiled vegetables - a color or white cabbage, beet. For a change it is possible to add to meat instead of vegetables a little rice or buckwheat. And here fish should not be given often. In a week there will be quite enough once. Fish has to be gutted, without skin and bones. The Persian can give only sea fish - a haddock, a cod, a humpback salmon.
2. For a change the cat can give sometimes chicken meat if your favourite has on it no allergy. However as the main component of meat food chicken does not need to be used. Once a week can be offered the Persian the beef heart cut by pieces. And here the liver is contraindicated to cats.

3. The following necessary component of food of the Persian - dairy products. Usual fresh milk will suit only kittens and young individuals, the adult cat from it will have an indigestion.
