Have a look at this: The Encyclopedia of Natural Pet Care - Google Book Search

Very interesting reading when considering what is best for a cats health. Page 60 shows an experiment done of the effects of feeding raw and cooked foods.

i give mine multi-mix cat crunchies. I buy a big sack once a week and it feeds all my dogs, cats and ferrets!

Hi

For thoseof you interested in raw food diet here is a link I found while looking at Maine Coon websites

~ WELCOME TO RAW FED CATS ~

You feed your dogs cat food???

Mine have hills science plan chicken flavoured is this any good

Sounds like it!?!

Don't get me started on Hill's!

vet put my persians on it when they were kittens they are both 2 now and have never had anything else up until getting them i always had moggies who ate anything that was going. Problem i would have changing is that roony will only eat this snowy will have the odd bit of meat and has eaten a few of patsys biscuits before i ended up feeding them all same. They have sensitive stomachs so what is a better type of food to feed them.

Hi all. Just got a cat today, we bought a bag of Hills Science Plan as that is what she was eating at the rescue shelter. Am very keen to give her the best we can, don't think I could handle a raw food diet though.

Has anyone tried a brand called Arden Grange? Their Chicken & Rice flavour has the following ingredients:
Chicken Meal* 30%, Whole Grain Maize 16%, Whole Grain Rice 16%, Dried Brewers Yeast, Chicken Fat*, Beet Pulp, Fresh Chicken (Min 5%), Egg Powder, Fish Meal*, Fish Oil*, Cellulose, Minerals, Vitamins, Nucleotides, Prebiotic FOS, Prebiotic MOS, Cranberry Extract, Taurine, Glucosamine Sulphate, Chondroitin Sulphate & MSM.
*Preserved with mixed tocopherols and rosemary extract

How does that look, any good?

Is it a good idea to feed mostly dry food but supplement it with some canned tuna or raw chicken breast once a week? I know dry food isn't the ideal but in fact it all seems to have far more protein than the canned foods.

I fed IAMs to my cat - made sure he had plenty of water - and he lived to 15

Must read ingredients.....
