Hello Everyone,
I was wondering if anyone has had success converting senior cats to a raw diet. My two (12 year old siblings) currently eat Taste of the Wild dry and a little Fancy Feast Classics wet. However, I want them to eat more wet and less dry, but not the Fancy Feast wet. Too many additives that don't seem necessary. They have shunned nearly every "healthy" brand of canned food - I have bought and tossed most everything available at PetSmart and Petco.
That said, I still would like to get them on a healthier diet but am concerned that if they won't eat the canned stuff will the raw appeal to them. My husband is a hunter and I did offer them some raw ground venison the other night, which they kind of nibbled at.....but the raw poultry might be a different story.
Would love to hear if anyone out there has transitioned older cats successfully? Thank you very much for your feedback.
