Humm.....interesting but your comment does raise some questions.  How does the Campylobacter get to the bone?   Like Salmonella, Campylobacter is an intestinal parasite commonly found in farm animals and birds.   Yes it is of concern but rarely permeates the cell walls of the intestines to...

Carolina, If I bring something home like chicken and am going to freeze before using, I just dry with paper towel before freezing.  When I am ready to serve it up to the kitties I used to rinse with water that has vinegar and hydrogen peroxide to sanitize the skin.  Lately if I am serving it up...

Sorry Emily, I got you threading on cat poop.  If Weruva is giving your cats smaller stools then that is a significant benefit if the amount they eat is the same as the other foods.  That means more was absorbed and utilized by the the digestive system.    Balanced raw feeding does the same...

I like the Feisty Feral's reply.  Most premium commercial canned cat foods still add filler that has little value to a cat and may be harmful over time.  

I have had reasonable luck with RAD CAT which comes from Oregon so I may be a West Coast thing but it is a balanced Frozen Raw Diet in 3 varieties: free range chicken, turkey, and lamb.  The lamb is a bit fatty so I will not rotate that in as frequently.  Cats seem to enjoy it but who knows what...

RiccaDawn, I shop online at the only natural pet food store: http://onlynaturalpet.com and they provide a full range of foods from dry to frozen.  Buying online frozen can be expensive to ship and most folks can access raw frozen from the big Pet Store chains.  I buy RAD CAT at the pet food...

Thank you LDG and Carolina for your feedback about Frankenprey.  I appreciate your input and am glad Lucky is getting a great diet.

Sorry to have raised up the hackles but the video it appeared to be chopped meat such as chicken breast.  That is considered frankenprey, I do admit that I do not know if she does feed a balanced diet and only meant to mention that store bought meat by itself is not a balanced diet for felines. ...

EmilyMayWilcha do you have Pet Food Express out there because they stock Weruva by the can.  You can also get it online at the onlynaturalpet.com   

Jezahb, remember that all commercial pet (dog and cat) foods are designed for them not us.  You did answer your question about raw that would be a good move for all of your cats and I recommend you read the paperback written by a holistic veterinarian, Dr. Karen Becker, it is titled Real Food...

I think your experiencing the usual multicat competition.  As long as there is one alpha cat that tries to hog it all then the rest of the clan will do whatever it takes.  You may experience more normal eating habits if you feed them in separate rooms or different feeding times keeping the rest...

kittylover23 I read your original post although I did not read most of the replies but converting to raw is a challenge with some cats.  I just wanted you to be aware that raw meat alone is not a balanced diet although some of the commercial raw do provide that.  You may be interested in Dr...

What success!  You still have a ways to go because just feeding "frankenprey" is not a balanced diet. Dr. Karen Becker has a paperback called Real Food for Dogs and Cats that will give you the info to turn your homemade raw to a balanced raw diet.  Other option is to by frozen prey such as hares...

Sorry it took several weeks for me to respond to this thread but I have been on several threads posting comments and help.  I have inherited three stray cats all of who were kittens just show up in my back yard at various time periods.  Sade is now 13, Tomtom is 6, and Journey is 2.  They can be...

JB, If the urinalysis comes back negative consider this, after looking at the photo of the cat pee, you have more than one cat and the other may be aggressive toward the other.  That would explain the appearance of streaked urine in the box with litter outside the box because the other cat may...
