Tips To Switch a Finicky Feline to a Raw Diet
Most frequently asked question:
Which diet do I need for my cat or dog?
Answer:The most popular premix is My Natural Cat for all cats and kittens. This is the diet premix that has helped IBD, FUS, and Diabetes. Brochures are on the home page and will give you more information.
Our Kidney Support Diet is for dogs and cats with failing and aging kidney disease. That brochure is also filled with more information.
Please read the web site and the brochures listed on the home page for many of the answers you need.
1. I personally do not believe in fasting a cat to make them eat a raw diet. It’s never worked for me or anyone we know.
2. Try using our chicken Liver powder on the meals. Everyone says it works really well. Our cats at Feline Instincts won’t eat the turkey meals unless we sprinkle some chicken liver powder on their meals.
3. Many cats will walk away from food that doesn't smell familiar to them. Try putting some on their lips to make them taste it. Pet them and tell them it’s good.
4. Mix any kind of food they like to the raw meal just to get them to eat it. Then, gradually take away that extra food you mixed in each time you feed them until they are eating just the raw meal.
5. Take up ALL dry foods as they are very addictive to cats because of the addicting flavor enticements they spray on those cereal junk foods. Dry foods also deteriorate their kidneys over time. If a cat knows other food is available they will opt for that instead of the raw foods anytime.
6. Sometimes, it takes a few weeks to switch a cat but more then often it only takes a few days to a week if you really try and have patience.
7. IMPORTANT
Some cats throw up raw beef and beef liver powder very soon after eating. If you do not know your kitty can tolerate beef raw then I recommend you use only poultry until you test your cat with a piece of raw beef meat first. Contact us if you have any questions.info@felineinstincts.com
