My cat is older with a kidney issues, and I'd like to try to put him on raw. The main problem is bone phosphorus. Instead of the 6% bone, can I add ground egg shells instead and keep everything else the same PMR wise?
You could do that...buy one of the complete meal commercial raw foods and slowly mix it in with his canned. That would have worked with two of my three. The third absolutely refused any commercial raw.Can I buy Darwins 2lb pre packaged food and slowly add it into his canned food and slowly wean him off canned?
I started by giving each cat a small piece of raw chicken to see if they’d eat it. I didn’t mix it with their canned. They gobbled it down like it was candy. So I just went all in and made their food following the recipe at catinfo.org. They ate it right away without any transition period. Not all cats will do that. And while they all liked chicken, they weren’t as excited about rabbit and one of the three didn’t like turkey. She also wouldn't eat pork.Or should I start with chicken and do the usual introduction? If it's the latter, how would I go about it?
