    Cooking food with bones in—nutritional differences?

    ah ok. I am sorry I misunderstood. That is a good question. I have actually thought of too making a broth and using it instead of the water required for the boneless recipes. I don't know though if bones leach the calcium or how that would work sorry.

    Pet food energetics - cats with allergies

    I wonder too that maybe if a cool meat and a hot meat are feed together or  at different meals, but not too far apart, if that would neutralize it. I was thinking maybe that is why my cat didn't have a problem with chicken. I added it slowly in his diet and was still feeding rabbit as I was...

    Raw ground mice from Hare Today. Have you tried it?

    I buy a pound of it now and then. Since its whole prey I don't supplement it.  My cats don't really like it that much. But since I know it is really good for them I feed it to them occasionally.  I  usually give it in the morning when they are really hungry.  Probably a little under a 2oz ...

    Hare Today - Question about reducing bone percentage

    I don't know if its right but the way I have figured it  was by the ounce I have made a lot of the 8lb batches of rabbit as my cat could only eat this for a while. I figured it like this the 5LB meat/bone/organ tub X 16oz =80 ozs 80oz  times the 15% bone = 12oz of bone in the 5LB tub. so to...

    Type of Gelatin for a Raw recipe

    thanks for all the great answers. I decided to go with the Now brand. I didn't realize the GL brand was not from bone. I was considering it because it sounded like it was more easily absorbed and I didn't really want a thickener.  I also had looked at the dog/cat version made by Armworks but its...

For example I used your calculator to get the bone percentage down to around 7-8 percentage as my cat suffers from constipation. So i would be pretty much be doubling the meat, which is fine and i have...

    Miralax is not working

    What are you feeding her? I would suggest feeding only a wet food diet.  You can also add stuff to the food to help like pumpkin or psyllium husk powder or SEB as suggested.

So when I make it I usually  buy the 5 lb tub, 1 1b of the boneless and 2 pound of chunks that I cut in smaller pieces for...
