I'm about to start my first batch of cat food! I'm going to get some bone-in meat (thighs), and rather than debone while raw, I was going to cook it a bit first so the meat falls off the bones. Does anyone know how that changes the nutritional profile? I know that when I slow cook chicken, gelatin/collagen proteins are extracted out of the bone/cartilage/etc into the broth, so I'm sure there must be some differences. I'm especially wondering if it will change the phosphorous percentage, since my cat has renal issues. Has anyone come across an answer to this in their cat nutrition adventures?
