If you feed any of the raw meat food to your cat then please check with the manufacturer that they have Taurine in them. This is an important amino acid that is essential for your cats heart and eye health. Having said that, raw meat has taurine in it naturally but its essential that you get this right. Speak to a vet or an animal nutritionist before switching your cat to a raw meat diet.

While there are some better quality complete pet foods now available (some of them listed), when switching to a raw meat and bone diet some people give supplements. A natural example is Keepers Mix from Dorwest Herbs.

Always introduce a change of diet gradually to allow your pets digestive system to become used to the new food. Don't just jump in with a new diet, research first.

Some vets may not be keen on you switching your pet to raw food but its always advisable to run it past them first. You never know they may be open minded about it and give you some good advice.
