To supplement calcium for a cat, you can feed some calcium-rich foods such as goat milk powder, shrimp, chicken breast, and salmon, while also appropriately supplementing vitamin D and letting the cat get some sunlight and exercise to promote calcium absorption. If the cat is severely calcium-deficient, under a veterinarian’s guidance you can give pet-specific calcium tablets or liquid calcium. Liquid calcium is more easily absorbed than ordinary tablets and irritates the cat’s gastrointestinal tract less.
