Hiiii Cat People!
I was recently introduced to raw food by my local pet supply store (Mud Bay) that supplies healthy food for cats & dogs, which I love, as I would not be caught dead feeding my little one Friskies-type, cheap, preservative-loaded crap food (hope I don't offend anyone!). My Lulu is 6 months, and I only feed her natural, grain-free wet food (she won't drink water on her own, except for here and there, so this is how I keep her hydrated for now- with my vet's approval).
I have also done my own research recently on the benefits of going raw for cats, and like what I'm finding so far, especially in regards to improved digestion, overall energy, oral health, and a smoother coat with less shedding. I have been feeding Lulu about 50% raw for the past week and a half, and am considering moving to 75% if all goes well. I do notice that this food is definitely more expensive, and will add up over time, so I wanted to get opinions of any of you who are familiar with raw feeding.
Is it worth it in terms of $$? What benefits have you noted? Will I still see results even at 50% or 75% raw? FYI, the brand I am using is 'Rad Cat' (http://www.radfood.com/).
ANY and ALL opinions/insights/etc. is welcome and appreciated.
Thanks!!
