BARF stands for "Biologically Appropriate Raw Food" and refers to a nutritional method for cats in which raw, unprocessed meat, offal, bones and plant-based ingredients are fed. Supplements play an important role in ensuring a balanced and needs-based diet.

Although BARF is considered a natural diet, it can be a challenge to provide all the necessary nutrients in the right quantities. This is where feed supplements come into play, which have been specifically developed to compensate for possible deficiencies and promote animal health.

It is important to consider the needs of the individual animal. Every animal is unique and has different nutritional requirements.

Fortan Catfortan: supplement feed for cats - 300 g can
CATFORTAN® Tabletten für Katzen
CATFORTAN for Cats - Biologically Active Vitamins contains the widest range of fully effective substances specially adapted to the cat's physiology: essential vitaminsessential taurineMineralsTrace elements10 essential amino acids The natural balance of ingredients has a mutually supporting, sometimes potentiating effect. This dietary supplement specifically for cats helps prevent nutrient deficiencies A varied, needs-based and balanced diet for cats forms the basis for optimal development, health, well-being and performance into old age. That is why it is so important to feed the cat correctly. Especially our cat is very much alienated from its original food. This was the only food that gave the cat all the biological active substances that are vital for it and which are no longer fully contained even in the very best, fresh muscle meat of slaughtered animals. In industrial feed production - even in premium complete feeds - many of these important, natural nutrients are lost. Regular supplementation of the feed, adapted to the respective age and needs, is recommended Helps to reduce diseases and irreparable signs of wear and tear caused by inadequate feed.For the supply of vital substances in the case of a reduction in feed that is necessary for health reasons, in order to avoid the resulting deficiencies.Supports the overall development of bones and muscle formation in kittens. Cats have an unusually high need for taurine for their numerous for their numerous metabolic functions. Only regular supplementary feeding of taurine will ensure a minimum basic supply. Cats that temporarily have an increased need for biological agents (dams during gestation and lactation, studs as well as sick and convalescing cats) should be given twice the daily dose. Likewise older cats, which often have absolute deficiencies in the biological organ supply (age-related resorption disorders).

Fortan Keimöl plus: Ergänzungsfutter für Hunde und Katzen - 500 ml Flasche
Germ Oil Plus
FORTAN Germ Oil Plus for Dogs and Cats - Many healthy, unsaturated fatty acids Biologically valuable plant substances have always been used as ingredients in animal feed. With its high-quality animal and vegetable oils, FORTAN Germ Oil Plus represents a primordially healthy diet: Maize germ oil Evening primrose oil Linseed oil Sesame oil Cod liver oil Apart from breast milk, evening primrose oil is the only known source of the biologically particularly active fatty acid, gamma-linolenic acid. FORTAN Germ Oil Plus compensates for the lack of gamma-linolenic acid with its evening primrose oil content. Cod liver oil with 85% unsaturated fatty acids and its natural content of vitamins A and D has proved particularly effective in combination with evening primrose oil in cases of diet-related allergies. Necessary for barfing Prevents diet-related allergies For increased need of vitamins A, D and E Improves skin and coat condition Essential fatty acids must be supplied to dogs and cats in the diet, as the animal organism cannot produce them itself. These fatty acids have properties that are otherwise only found in vitamins. Growing, pregnant, lactating and ageing dogs also need doubly and multiply unsaturated fatty acids as well as vitamins A, D and E. A beautiful, shiny coat thanks to highly unsaturated fatty acids Arachidonic acid, which is extremely important for animal nutrition, is formed in the animal body from the fatty acid linoleic acid. Highly unsaturated fatty acids give a beautiful, shiny coat. A deficiency of vital fatty acids leads to characteristic skin changes, growth disorders and poor food conversion. Germ Oil Plus and Cafortan - an ideal combination Vitamin A is necessary for bone growth and serves to maintain the health and function of the upper skin layers. Vitamin D regulates the metabolism of calcium and phosphorus. Vitamin E fulfils important functions in the control of carbohydrate, creatine and muscle metabolism. When FORTAN Germ Oil Plus and Cafortan® are fed at the same time, the effect of the special vital fatty acids in the animal organism is promoted.

Fortan Dicalciumphosphat: Einzelfutter - 1000 g Beutel
Dicalcium Phosphate
FORTAN Dicalcium Phosphate for Dogs and Cats - For a needs-based calcium-phosphorus supply FORTAN Dicalcium Phosphate ensures a calcium-phosphorus supply for dogs that meets their needs. It is the special mineral feed with calcium and phosphorus for the optimal supply of bone structure and teeth. It is indispensable for numerous metabolic processes, as calcium and phosphorus metabolism are closely linked. Food quality Produced in Germany High biological efficiency These two elements are most aptly described by the term 'bone minerals', as they are primarily responsible for the stability of bones. FORTAN Dicalcium Phosphate is characterised by a corresponding conversion of the raw phosphates into a feed phosphate that is easily utilisable by dogs and has a high degree of biological efficiency. Constant calcium/phosphorus concentration in the blood Regular supplementation with FORTAN Dicalcium Phosphate ensures a constant calcium and phosphorus concentration in the blood. The favourable calcium-phosphorus ratio of about 1.3 : 1 prevents degradation from the bone cells and ensures an ideal calcium-phosphorus supply for the whole organism. The need for these two minerals is subject to considerable fluctuations. In some cases, it cannot be fully covered by the standard diet. Puppies, growing, pregnant and lactating dogs need higher amounts of calcium and phosphorus. This can only be compensated for with additional supplements. The greatly increased requirement during the first 3 months of the growth phase, the suckling period and also during the second half of the pregnancy must be taken into account when providing the supply. Only large puppies also need an increased supply between the fourth and sixth month of life. In lactating bitches, the requirement increases to two to five times the maintenance requirement, depending on the number of puppies. Consequently, the daily addition of FORTAN Dicalcium Phosphate to the feed is important. Ideal combination with Cafortan By simultaneously feeding Cafortan with its vitamin D3 content, the calcium uptake and thus the phosphorus utilisation is guaranteed in the best possible way.

Fortan Calcium 40: Einzelfutter mit 40 % Calciumcarbonat - 600 g Beutel
Calcium 40
FORTAN Calcium 40 for dogs and cats - The compensation for an unfavourable mineral content in raw feeding FORTAN Calcium 40 serves to compensate for an unfavourable mineral content, as can occur when feeding phosphorus-rich food in home-made feed rations (B.A.R.F.) or proportionate meat feeding to ready-made feed. Food grade Produced in Germany Feeding phosphorus-rich foods, e.g. meat and offal, results in a relative reduction of calcium levels in the dog's body. This is not surprising, because 100 g of meat contain on average 40 mg of calcium, but 170 mg of phosphorus. This results in a calcium-phosphorus ratio of only 0.2 : 1, which can quickly lead to a calcium deficiency in the dog. Balanced calcium-phosphorus ratio = optimal metabolism A calcium-phosphorus ratio of between 1.3 : 1 and 2 : 1 should be aimed for in the feed rations, depending on the performance requirements. If the recommended ratio is deviated from below 1 : 1, the intake will be negatively affected. This also affects the dog's metabolism. The supply gaps due to extremely low calcium but high phosphorus contents in the feed lead to bone cell degradation as well as an impairment of bone stability and require the targeted supply of calcium. Calcium is the most important mineral for the development and maintenance of the skeletal system and teeth. It is also important for other metabolic functions. It serves to control and regulate processes in the cell membranes. FORTAN Calcium 40 has a high calcium content of 40 %. Due to the high quality requirements of our company, we only offer this article from goods produced in Germany.
