Omega 3 and Omega 6 Fatty Acids: good fats and bad fats for cats.

One of every 3 cats (30% of cats) over the age of 15 develops renal failure. Research from the Department of Nutrition in the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at Utrecht University in The Netherlands suggests that cats taking Omega 3 fatty acids will live longer than cats taking Omega 6 fatty acids. In addition, cats taking Omega 3 fatty acids that developed renal failure did so at a later age than cats consuming Omega 6 fatty acids.

What are good sources of Omega 3 fatty acids for cats?—fish and ground flax seeds.
