IMO, it seems pretty useless. Why don't they just serve it in chunks? Does it better hold the nutrients or something like that?
So they can grind the bones (plus there's a long term cost saving) - cats need the calcium and unfortunately most of the food meat you can buy, the bones are a bit too big for the cat to eat on their own. And if you're going to grind the bones, grind the meat for convenience.Originally Posted by fattykitty

while the increased risk of bacteria is no problem for dogs the cats digestive system is longer and less acidic, therefore they are vulnrable to food poisoning.
I've seen this, too, and agree with you, Catattack - the infighting is total nonsense. I don't grind 'cause it's too much work and my cats eat frankenprey just fine, but if someone else chooses to do so - yay!! the cat's still off commercial and onto a healthier, more natural diet.Originally Posted by catattack1985
C...IMO, there's a lot of rivalry when it comes to raw feeders & grinders -- those who don't vs. those who do -- imo, there's no need to be condescending about the grinder issue. as long as the cat is eating raw, and is healthy, that should be the only issue.
