So glad to hear she liked it!

You may have to crunch the bone for her a little first, to help her get the idea. Also, once she starts actually eating the bone, make sure you don't give it too often as too much can cause constipation. I'd say one wing per week is enough, but of course this depends on the cat. If you see her poos turning white, it's time to cut back on the bone

My cat is 13 months now and has been on raw since he was 4 months. His teeth are still sparkly white, but then I don't know if that's just because he's still young. In addition to bones I also give him some of this every day: ProDen PlaqueOff™ - For Healthier Teeth and Gums

Here he is showing off his teeth
