How to start feeding your dog or cat raw

• shinier skin and coat
• less dander
• smaller amounts of stool
• less stinky breath
• less water consumption

We get a lot of compliments about how soft our cats fur is here at the store. Cats especially benefit from a raw diet because of the high moisture content. This high water content aids cats as the natural moisture helps in urinary issues such as kidney blockages, kidney stones and bladder stones.

What is a Great Way to Feed Raw?

Frozen food is a great way to start feeding raw to your pet. Our freezers here at the store run at negative 5 day and night so the food comes to us frozen and stays frozen until you get it home. If you plan to feed it within a couple days, it needs to go in your freezer as well as it needs to stay frozen. Dogs typically tolerate frozen food that is thawing in the fridge for five to six days, Cats are a bit more finicky. Once you thaw frozen food for your cat, they  should consume it within probably the three day mark. You can thaw frozen products in some cold water or your fridge and reapportion it into smaller amounts or usable amount. So maybe for cats, that's a portion that is maybe two days worth. You can then refreeze the remainder and pull it out to thaw as needed.

What is a Good Portion Size?

An 11- to 12-pound cat should be eating about 6 to 8 ounces a day so that's two small cans of cat food if you feed canned food. Dogs two years and older and fifty pounds would be eating a pound a day and a 100-pound adult dog would be eating two pounds a day
