American wirehair

Because of the American Wirehair's breed's lightly curled, springy coat, it's important that this cat's hairs grow evenly - unless of course, you don't mind living with an animal that will look like a used Brillo pad on paws. Since the coat is the first area to show nutritional deficiencies, a balanced diet is essential. Avoid feeding table scraps and treats that could interfere with the Wirehair's cat's intake of quality protein and fat. Add a vegetable enzyme for insurance.
