I'm starting to experiment with home cooked meals. Just made 6 lbs of chicken and 6lbs of pork in the pressure cooker for the cats. Plan to add either sweet potato or pumpkin, as my cats love both.
Right now, they get two meals of commercial cat food, and my home cooked meals for lunch.
But my one cat is allergic to everything other than pork. I would like to switch him completely to homecooked meals. I'm concerned about balancing the diet properly.
do i need to grind bones or could i use bone meal?? What about vitamins and minerals? I read that you could take a multivitamin and crush/mix with his food, or give 1/4th a tablet per day.
i have taurine capsules already. He gets 1/6th a capsule with lunch. Each capsule is 1000mg.
suggestions and comments are appreciated.
Please don't ask me to try a different commercial food. We have tried every food/prescription food out there for allergies. It's this or start raising feeder mice. My poor cat has very bad food allergies.
