Hi everybody!
Four months ago we adopted from a divorce situation the loveliest Siberian cat. Kastor is 7 1/2 years old and was eating free fed, good quality dry and Latz fish foods in sauce (wouldn't have any other flavor). He regurgitated his food once in a while at the beginning, then more and more often, combined with less appetite, even though we ended up feeding him a teaspoon's worth of food at a time. The vet squeezed his belly, concluded the vomiting was caused by constipation, gave him an enema, sold us some fiber dry food, and sent us on our way. Poor kitty had projectile vomiting while in the carriage, but no pooping and we still had to wait a few days more and give him paraffine oil so that he would go.
After reading on these forums among other sites about raw feeding, we decided to include raw meat his diet to improve it (might have been already when we visited the vet). We were always still mixing the raw meat with Latz wet fish food so he'd eat it.
A couple of weeks ago maybe, while reading up the feeding guide of the frozen raw meat products we served him, I realized that I was serving him only ground meat and bone cubes, which had way more bone than required >_
