British shorthair

Large and placid, with an impressive thick coat, the British Shorthair's favorite pastimes are sleeping and eating, with play being least important. Since this breed's relatively inactive lifestyle is conducive to obesity and FLUTD, maximum nutrition must be provided in minimum quantity. Feed Premium cat food only twice daily. Do not leave cat food out for an all day nibbling. Avoid feeding red fish and foods high in magnesium. Meat protein is a must to keep the urine slightly acidic. Always keep fresh water available. If you're not providing a quality alternative cat food, I'd suggest giving a balanced supplement once a day. Brewer's yeast or torula yeast will keep that plush coat glamorous.
