Hello,
I have an almost 4 month old male kitten that I am considering switching over to a raw diet. I found him and his brothers in the bushes at my complex when they were around 8 weeks and he has always been the pickiest one. He ended up being a foster failure (first one in 10 years of kittens and bottle babies!) and he is driving me crazy with the food situation.
He was always obsessed with dry food which I would like to limit, he does get into it as one of my other senior female cats eats dry. I have tried every canned food out there and Primal/Instinct pre-made raw. He is not interested no matter how hard I try, takes a few tiny bites and refuses to eat the rest.
He loves fresh food and raw chicken I have let him taste. An expensive meat grinder that handles bone is not in my budget at this time so I was considering trying pre-made mixes of meat/organ/bone and adding supplements and additional fresh ground meat into it - I would grind boneless (much cheaper grinder option) - I would base it off this :
Easy Raw Diet Feeding for the Busy Person
Does anyone have experience with this type of feeding or recommendations of mixes I can purchase at local stores to try? I was considering Bravo Basics or Primal Grings to start. Any advice would be appreciated.
And here is Mister Sylvester the brat cat
