I bought a pound of cat food from this company. Wondering if I should be adding supplements. They use the 80-10-10 formula. The guy at the store said the only difference between the cat mix and the other mixes for dogs is that there is more heart in the cat version because cats need more taurine, and the pièces are smaller because cats' mouths and teeth and smaller than dogs'. And they don't mention anything about supplementation.
Free-Range Chicken for Cats | Naturaw Canine Food
INGREDIENTS
Whole chicken, chicken organs (liver, heart, giblets)
GUARANTEED NUTRITION
The organs we use in our mixes are liver, lung, heart, kidneys because they add nutritional value.
Liver - zinc, manganese, selenium, iron, Vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B12, C, biotin, folacin and essential fatty acids.
Kidneys – protein, essential fatty acids, vitamins A, D, E, K, B1, B2, B3, B5, B, iron and zinc
Heart – protein, B vitamins, iron, essential fatty acids and taurine
Lung – Vitamin C, Iron, protein, potassium
It comes in small chunks of meat and very small pieces of bone. Nothing is ground.
Most raw recipes I've seen online calls for meat, bones, organs and supplements but they're selling this mix as a complete meal. And commercial brand raw meat cat foods also includes supplements. I'm wondering if I still need to add supplements to this food? What if I bought the other types of meat mixes that they sell for dogs (beef, rabbit etc) and add taurine? Would I still need to add supplements or would the rotation of different types of protein suffice?
