European Shorthairs are natural predators. Never forget that when you’re trying to decide what food your European Shorthair should eat. If you don’t stick to this, your European Shorthair will seem like a finicky eater. If you’re giving your her food that is not meat or formulated from meat products, you may have a difficult time getting your European Shorthair to eat.
What food you should give to your new European Shorthair.
Always remember European Shorthairs are closely related to the biggest of felines — cougars, tigers and lions — so keep that in mind as you’re feeding the European Shorthair. Never will you see a mature panther on Animal Planet chewing grass, drinking milk, or eating an apple in the wild.
