I am in the very early stages of looking into raw feedings. I'm just looking for some tips on where to start as in which articles, websites, etc. What helped you start a raw diet?
I have 7 cats that I will be potentially feeding a raw diet. They range in ages from 15yrs to 1yr and weights of 8lbs to 11lbs. As I am just starting my research I have no idea on portion size for each cat. Should it be determined by weight, age or am I completely off track. Don't be alarmed I'm just trying to gain knowledge on raw diets & I don't plan on starting this type of diet tomorrow. I know I need to understand more about this before I dive in.
If I do intend to feed raw it will be a ground meat diet with premixed supplements. Can I go to my local grocery store or butcher shop and buy the meat? Do I actually need a meat grinder or can I buy already ground meat?
I guess that is all I had thought of right now. Any help or tips on where to start researching will be much appreciated!
