ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate increasing levels of dried apple pomace on cat diets and its effects on the apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) of nutrients and diet metabolizable energy (ME) and palatability. Fecal characteristics of cats were also evaluated. Four experimental diets were produced to contain 0, 30, 60, and 90 g kg−1 of dried apple pomace. Two experiments were carried out. In experiment 1, the diets were offered to twelve adult cats distributed in […]

Scientific knowledge about companion animal nutrition has increased incrementally, following the phenomenon seen in several areas of knowledge. In the last decade may be the priority of research was directed to the use of nutrients in health promotion, prevention of degenerative diseases, improve quality of life and increased life expectancy of dogs and cats. This direction of research is largely explained by the importance that dogs and cats taken in people’s lives, making that the decisions of the owners about […]
