i feed my two enormous dogs raw for very little money... this is because very little of the meat that they eat is meat that would be sold for human consumption. not that i feed them meat that is below human standards for quality, but the parts of animals that i feed them are parts that people rarely eat... chicken backs, turkey necks, raw tripe etc. the cats are a little bit more of a problem because all of the info that i can find regarding making raw catfood calls for cuts of meat that are sold to humans. i can get organic chicken backs for about a dollar a pound, organic chicken thighs (the meat that i see called for very often in raw recipes) for three something a pound. big difference!
does anyone make their own raw catfood using "alternative" meat sources, that is, cuts of meat that are not sold for human consumption. aside from the obvious chicken necks?
also, can cats eat tripe? one of my cats always tries to steal a bite when i feed this to the dogs, but i cant find any info about whether or not this is bad for him.
