I am awaiting the delivery of supplements and then I will begin feeding raw. I am starting with Primal Grinds. I will start with Turkey, Chicken & Lamb.At some point I may grind my own but because one of my cats has FIV I decided the grinds sound safer. My cats eat only grain free wet at this time. I have fed one of my cats ( Desmond) Rad Cat many times and he loves it. I also have been feeding him some Chicken Gizzards for his teeth.
I was confused about which lite salt to buy because the Morton's contains Calcium. The grinds have bone so I was not sure if adding more calcium was a good idea. I bought 'Iodized Lo Salt' it has 170 mgs. Sodium,450 mgs. Potassium . Is this enough sodium?
Second question: These grinds have 10% bone. I have read that others dilute the bone content. Is that important? I am confused as to how to do that due to Remy's FIV status.
I would also love some advice about Remy. Not only does he have FIV but he has had 16 teeth removed due to Stomatitis and Resorptive lesions. On Sept. 9th he will have the rest of his teeth removed. I am assuming that the grinds are fine enough that the bone won't bother him once he is completely toothless. Am I right? I know there is disagreement about feeding FIV cats raw diets but Primal uses HPP and I think I is safe.
I am thinking about grinding my own raw at some point but am not sure about doing it for Remy.
Any advice and or suggestions would be great.
