Are you a cat owner that believes in feeding your cat what nature intended – fresh raw meat? Well your not alone. Although many people feed their cats food from the shelves at their local pet or grocery store, some cat owners (like myself) feed their cats nothing but the cleanest raw meat that money can buy. You do not have to study any type of feeding chart or nutritional suggestion guide for your cat. Instead, feeding your cat can be very simple, and we will show you how.
Rather than buying commercial cat food, try feeding your cat meat based on the following recommendations on the different types of raw meat available for your cat.
Basic muscle meat: Basic muscle meat is considered meat that comes from all different types of animals. It provides various innards which supply a multi-range of nutritional value. You may even opt for cheaper cuts of meat for your cat. They are more on the fatty side and quite suitable your budget is tight.
Kidneys: Kidneys are typically cheap to purchase and can be fed to your cat occasionally. The best kind of kidneys are beef kidneys. Also, always soak them in cold water before feeding them to your pet.
Lung: Some cat owners feed their cat lung because it is very cheap (sometimes free). However, lung does not hold much nutritional value and most cats do not like it anyway. If you must feed your cat lung, then be sure to cut it up into very small pieces – specifically pureed.
Heart: Hearts are very nutritious for your cat to eat. They hold many nutrients and cats absolutely love to eat them.
Cow’s udders: Just as lung is very tough to eat and holds little value, the same goes for cow’s udders. It is not recommended that you feed your cat this organ. Cow’s udders may also contain a disease that causes mastitis.
Liver: If you could just pick one raw organ to feed your cat, it should be liver. Liver is one of the most nutritious meats there is. It contains a large number of vitamins and promotes high energy levels. However, be careful not to feed your cat too much raw liver, as it can cause diarrhea. In addition, too much liver can cause your cat to have vitamin A poisoning. This is because liver is extremely rich in Vitamin A and too much of a good thing can be bad thing!
