Phosphorus is more widely distributed than calcium and is found in dairy, meat, vegetable and cereal products. However in cereals and vegetables phosphorus may be combined as phytate, which is less bioavailable. Common sources in manufactured dog and cat foods include bone meal, meat and bone meal, fish meal, and inorganic phosphate salts – usually those of calcium, sodium, potassium or ammonium. Home-made diets that are mostly composed of meats typically have a very abnormal [[Calcium - Nutrition|Ca:P ratio]].
