Hi,
I've been feeding my kitten for a year now on raw food. I follow the PMR (Prey Model Raw) diet and leave the pieces of meat in chunks and feed 3 times a day. My recipe includes a balanced diet of muscle meat (beef, chicken and chicken hearts), bones, liver and secreting organ (kidney or spleen). I do supplement one meal per day with some taurine and coconut oil and about once a week with a sardine (no oil or salt).
My question is: is this enough? I see multiple recipes online that include B complex, Vitamin E etc. Is what I do enough or am I seriously depriving my cat of the essentials? It was my understanding that they wouldn't normally have the supplements in the wild and that a diet that resembles the make-up of a wild animal would provide all the essential vitamins and nutrients.
Please let me know if my thinking is correct.
Thanks!!!
