This is something I'm not going to do for a good two, three maybe even four years now so I've got plenty of time to research on Cat Health & Nutrition. Believe me when I say, when I move out and I get my own place with a stable income, that's when I plan on getting an animal.
That could even take five years. >_<
But in the meantime, I wish to educate myself on how I can make my animal as happy and healthy as possible, my sister's a Vet Tech, and while I plan on going into Game Design for my college education, I don't mind learning about animals in my free time.
I'd prefer if the diet was cooked. I have no qualms over cooking for my pets. I'll of course add in the recommended nutrients/supplements (which I already know vaguely about). I plan on getting a Meat Grinder, which I will use to grind bones and meat but i WILL cook them.
I read that if you grind meat & bones finely enough you can eventually cook them, if this is true, then I'd like to experiment with this (note I am not going to 'play' with my pet's health, I am just going to experiment for the next 2-5 years and see what I can come up with ^^)
I am not vegetarian or vegan, even though I'd like to eat these foods and eat healthier myself, I don't ever see myself giving up meat in MY personal diet completely (no offense to those who are on this site and are). So, handling meat is not a problem for me nor is consuming it.
I could use help here. ^^ Anything is helpful at this point.
