WikiVet and Mars Petcare have partnered to create new educational material for dogs and cats that highlights nutrition and its role in animal health. Subject matter covered will include nutrition requirements, essential nutrients, role of essential nutrients in physiology, deficiencies, and toxicity. Educational material will feature writings from several pet nutrition experts.
Dr. Richard Butterwick, Principal Nutrition Scientist for WALTHAM Centre for Pet Nutrition, Mars Petcare said, “Nutrition plays a crucial role in the health and well-being of pets. We are excited to combine our expertise in pet nutrition with WikiVet’s dynamic site, driving greater awareness of the important link between nutrition and health.”
