Re: Anyone feed raw ?


My Siamese boy was the only one who liked raw: used to give him inexpensive steak and lamb kidneys. The others proved uninterested in any raw food.

Re: Anyone feed raw ?


I have never tried to feed raw food - think after reading this, the prevoius post about raw food and some of the links etc, I will get some chicken wings and see if my two like or not.

Re: Anyone feed raw ?


I'm just as glad none of the others liked raw: cutting lamb kidneys into bite sized hunks was not a favorite chore of mine (yuk!) while my boy was doing, as BM calls it, "the dance of the starving cat" around me!

And Leia. Ms Picky, thinks food comes in tins!

I feed all of mine raw. They get chicken (wings, legs, carcass) Wild Rabbit, beef, lamb, sardines, mackerel. Their favourite at the moment are pig tounges.

Andrew, I never thought about raw fish. How do you feed it to them....skin and de-bone it first?

M&M enjoyed raw sardines , i just removed the main spine the little bones went down ok.
I gave them some fresh tuna steak yesterday , that didn't go down well. They wouldn't touch it till i pan fried it for a few seconds.

legs and carcass , wow make sure you keep them well feed as they might just come after you next.

Thats a good selection of food , how does it work out cost wise?
