It's basically an on the side supplement but according to Dr. Elizabeth Hodgkins it can be fed as an all-in-one. You add it to ground meats with bones and organs. Anyone have any experience with this?
I agree and when I feel comfortable enough I will try the prey-model diet. But right know it's out of my comfort level and whether it's truly "natural" or not it's probably most practical at the moment-my mom is VERY squeamish around meat and all those organs would make her uncomfortable. Besides, sometimes cats do consume some plant material. There are some barn cats near my house and they nibble a bit at the grass. And even though cat's don't fully eat the stomach content of their prey, a bit of half-digested veggies will probably sneak in. JMO.

I am in agreement with several of the previous posters - a plant-based supplement has no business in my cats' diet.
Some confuse a natural diet with natural foods. While the ingredients in ML or PP might be closer to their original "natural" state than the ingredients in canned foods, a cat's "natural" diet consists of animals only. So no matter how fresh an ingredient, if it's plant-based, it's not a natural part of a feline diet.
With a balanced raw diet, supplements aren't necessary anyway. I know it's tempting to throw one in "just in case", but it's best to resist.
