Hi everyone!
I just joined recently and have been browsing the raw forum. Wow- I never knew there were so many way to feed a raw diet! I'm curious as to what "system" has worked for you and your cat/s.
I get ground chubs from hare-today and use the recipe from feline-nutrition(dot)org to make it a complete meal. Of course, most of the chubs aren't in the 80/10/10 ratio...this is where my real curiosity piques. How I make sure the cats don't get an out of whack Ca to P ratio is I feed them two meals a week (out of 14) of chicken chunks and pork heart. Does anyone else take this approach? My less than stellar math skills have me too scared to try and mix a grind...with boneless...with x amount of organs...so it makes sense (to me, anyway) to balance everything out with a few boneless meals. With this method, they also get the added benefit of a good jaw workout and teeth cleaning.
So...what works for you?
