Cat Treats

A good rule of thumb is the "10% Rule": treats should make up no more than 10% of your cat’s total daily calorie intake. For an average indoor cat in Singapore, this usually equates to about 15–20 calories worth of snacks. If you’re using "high-value" treats like creamy purées or freeze-dried meat, remember to adjust their main meal portions slightly to prevent weight gain.

Yes, cats can be trained! For the best results, use "high-value" treats that have a strong aroma to keep them focused. Small, crunchy bites or tiny pieces of freeze-dried fish are perfect because they are easy to eat quickly between repetitions. For HDB dwellers, training your cat to come when called or to use a scratching post can be much easier with the right reward.

Creamy, lickable treats (like the popular Ciao Churu) are excellent for hydration and bonding. They are especially useful in Singapore’s hot weather to ensure your cat gets extra moisture. However, check the labels for added salt or artificial thickeners. At Superpets, we stock premium creamy treats that prioritize real fish and meat, making them a delicious and functional snack.

To keep your cat healthy, steer clear of treats containing "unnamed" meat by-products, excessive salt, or artificial colors (like Red 40 or Blue 2). Also, be wary of treats with high carbohydrate fillers like corn or soy, which offer little nutritional value to obligate carnivores. Look for single-ingredient treats (e.g., 100% freeze-dried chicken) for the cleanest nutritional profile.
