they also arent allowed in the kitchen without me as they climb everywhere and one got stuck in my oven ohb thing!!

So they refused to eat but dragged it everyhwer, even if its in a bowl in the lounge they still take it out!

mine only ever ate the meat off of the chicken wing or the very tiny bit t hat sticks out they found the rest just too hard!

UYes the kidney/liver/heart all fed raw too.

Its pointless giving them supplements, the reason to go raw as its meant to be natural like a wild diet, they dont take tabs for supplements! I kow they say they eat the animals that eat veg so they get a little bit, so I did give them a little bit of veg disguised! but they never ate it!

OH sardines & tuna (not in brine) cold fish boiled not raw fish to

Yes kittys can eat raw, mine will get a little raw, but some people dont feed raw so I cant feed complete raw, Im going to ask the new owners what they want to do as its up to them I can only advise them.

My cats still eat part raw
thanks hun, will take a good look at their teeth and see how they are, would like to get them cleaning them by chewing on bone but as they have had little but dry biscuits its probably going to take some time to get them to that stage, but will keep at it. Sardines I assume are ok with the bones being so soft? and both those and tuna in oil rather than brine?

is big learning curve but am determined am going to do my best, though they may have other ideas!

Hi,

Yes you can there is no inherent risk in feeding raw to pregnant cats

Re: Question about raw feeding please?

As to the dragging, yes, mine does that but she has 2 favourite places. One is the kitchen door mat, by the catflap and the other is a sisal mat I bought as a horizontal scratcher.

She hardly ever chews it on the carpet. TBH the meat isn't that bloody.
