Pengaruh Wortel (Daucus carota), Jahe (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) dan Temulawak (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb) Terhadap Status Kesehatan Anak Kucing The Effect of Carrot (Daucus carota), Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) And Temulawak (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb) Against Kitten Health Status

Kittens are classified in the stages of life growth and have high energy and protein requirements. When feeding kitten is recommended to use ingredients that are very easy to digest and various nutrient to assist the development to produce healthy adult cats. The cat's digestive system is responsible for digesting food and absorbing the nutrients the body needs. The gastrointestinal is home of microflora, also known as 'beneficial' bacteria, which contributes to digestive health by improving overall health when balanced and supports food and nutrition processing. System digestion includes a dense population of immune system cells, which means the cat's gastrointestinal tract is one of the first places the immune system faces potential pathogens or other things that might require an immune response.


INTRODUCTION
Cats are carnivores. acid. Arginine is needed in the urea cycle.
As a protein eater, the rest of metabolism in the form of ammonia will be very abundant.
In cats that feed arginine-deficient feed, cats will experience hyperammonemia in one hour. Arginine is needed by the body to convert ammonia into water-soluble urea and can be excreted in urine. (Triakoso, 2016)

MATERIALS AND METHODS
The research has done in Mr.

Research variables and measurement
The variables in this study can be identified as exogenous and endogenous variables. Where the feeding of cats with carrots, ginger, and temulawak as an independent or exogenous variable and body weight and kitten health as a dependent or endogenous variable.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
The results from examining cat feed on pet care owned by Mr. Firlian produces the following:  The parameters of each score are: 1. When viewed from above, the animal's waist still looks shaped 2. When viewed from the side of the ribs palpable 1 layer of muscle 3. When viewed from the side, the lower abdominal area looks slim, not too thin but not palpated with excess fat.
For animals with long hair, it needs to be touched, because it tends to look "fat" or normal even though the animal could actually be underweight. Body condition score (BCS) used is a score of 1-9, where the thinnest score is 1 and the fattest 9. The ideal number is at 4-5. (Dede, 2012).
It is known from the data above that the kitten weight shows that every week there is an increase of 2-5 gr. Calculation of kitten body weight is done every day using baby scales and then divided on average, so that the average weight can be known. The following is a graph of weight results per week.

From the graph data above, it can be seen that the weight of the kitten has changed and some has not. This is influenced by the consumption of ginger extracts in cat food to warm the body and is also believed to have anti-inflammatory properties that serve to relieve pain (Muchlis, 2020).

SUMMARY
From the feeding data, the role of ginger and ginger has a role that is no less important for the health of cats. The occurrence of dead cats in this study has the possibility that the cat has a fairly weak immune and poor digestive system that makes it possible for digestive diseases such Kitten 5 Kitten 6 Kitten 7 Kitten 8 Kitten 9 Kitten 10 Kitten 11 Kitten 12 Kitten 13 Kitten 14 Kitten 15 Weeks 1 Weeks 2 Weeks 3 Weeks 4 as diarrhea, after diarrhea appears usually the cat has decreased appetite.
With the existence of temulawak extract in cat food, it can be used to help increase the cat's appetite so that when the appetite starts to improve it is usually accompanied by a digestive system that starts working normally.
