      I want to get my cat on a
      Really Good food routine.
      I made the mistake of giving him a very small amount of canned red sockeye salmon, which I did not realize, contained 370mg of sodium to mix with his cosequin . I have also in the past, given him very little amounts of sardines in oil.
      Now I'm beating myself up about it. I seriously Need to find out the routine ,& types of foods you feed your cat.

    Hi, i love your videos! This is my routine for feeding my cat: once a week i will mince 1 or 1.5 Kgs of meat, roughly 80% lean chicken breast or lean pork, 15% chicken hearts, livers and lungs, and the remaining 5% made with a couple of eggs with their crushed shell for calcium, a bit of mackarel and a piece of Nori seaweed for iodium. I will then lightly shallow boil the meat until it’s safe for consumption (but no more than that) and when it’s cooked i wait until it’s lukewarm and add the nori and mackarel. Sometimes I add some flavor modifiers, like bonito flakes to not bore her with the same flavors over and over. Pack & freeze and I’m good for 9 to 10 days. Please tell me it’s worth it, because It’s so labor intensive and not cheap at all 😅

    One of my cats loves yogurt. If I get a cup of it from the fridge, she will follow me around and yell until I share it with her. She’s not a fan of most meats, but she will sometimes eat chicken and fish. My other kitty isn’t a fan of yogurt, but she LOVES turkey. Thanksgiving was a field day for her. She also enjoys chicken. They both love canned tuna, and I sometimes use the tuna water as a mix-in for wet food flavors they aren’t too fond of.

      hello there I had some suggestions for you..you should try out raw eggs, I give them to my raw fed ferrets & dogs, very nutritious and beneficial to their coat (unlike cooked). 1 per cat per week and for cheese remember that cats can not properly digest dairy (lack of proper enzymes to break it down, so its very hard on them and can cause issues!1) please don't give any grains to your cat ever! their body is not designed to digest grains. Fyi cats are obligate carnivores meaning, they can only properly utilize and digest animal carcasses, which is why most cat kibble cause health issues. For the meat.. unless your feeding organic RAW chicken meaning no rosemary oil added no spiced, no salt and no vinegar, You shouldn't be feeding it AT ALL.. This goes for all meats. Try feeding it raw! it comes much more nutritious for them to eat it in its natural state! Its what cats dogs and ferret were designed to do.

      why don’t you go ahead and Google salmonella contaminations in kibble? And then go ahead and Google it in raw diet.. explain to me why a healthy dog has 30% salmonella in the G.I. tract. You have no idea what you’re talking about.. you have done no research whatsoever to prove what you’re talking about. I have done countless weeks of research on what I do on a daily basis.

He was on a dry kibble diet and drinking out of a water bottle. He is now better than ever and thriving. I could give you many more examples on how the raw diet has saved my pet’s life.. how many times can you say that about kibble? Is that right none?? my god really!!! that’s what I thought
      cats dogs and ferrets have a much lower gastric pH compared to humans. We are not designed to eat raw meat. Go look at a cats incisors. As well as dog and ferret. Their body is designed to rip flush off his bones. I don’t think that I ever see wild polecats tigers or wolves eating kibble from a factory that is highly processed and covered in cancer. I choose not to feed harm fully processed foods. The companies that I support for my roommate have in mind of keeping pets healthy and making them thrive. Cable companies only want money they use the remains from human meat such as beaks and many other completely nutrient insufficient ingredients. It’s only because it’s cheap. I buy raw meat because it’s the highest quality that I could possibly give my pets. I want to give them the best life that they can have while they’re still with me. If you choose to not do the same I feel bad for you. It’s too bad.

    I'm super new to being a cat mom, my fiance's cat has recently had to have a diet overhaul and your videos have been such a lifeline for me!
    I would be very interested if you could have a general overview video of things to be looking for in our cats' diet (obviously short of veterinarian recommendations). Maybe showing some of your processes with how you'd read a can of cat food to distinguish or the type or research you would do before trying it? I've heard things like avoiding too much tuna, fish in general, etc. but our cat LOVES those so I feel very conflicted - so tips like that in a general education video would be so helpful.
    I've been interested in Stella & Chewy's and I hope a full video may be in our future! (Especially their "Dinner Dust" to maybe have an option to fulfill nutritional needs even if some foods lack it? Not sure what your opinion of that is but I'd love to know!)

    Hey Mallory! As always me and my cat Simon enjoy your great work. I was wondering if you were planning on doing a review on cat vitamins/ malts or probiotics/prebiotics. As a guardian of a cat who has had bilateral femoral head and neck osteotomy, I struggle to find viable and reliable options to support my cat's bone structure and support him in other nutritional needs. A review or recommendation from you would be great! Thanks so much for the great content you put out there.

    I enjoy your videos and website. My two kittens, ten months old now, like raw ground beef and a little beef liver. I also give them boiled turkey or chicken thigh meat. They won't eat it raw. They also get raw egg yolk and a little fresh broccoli, once a week. I don't feed them fish, as one kitten sometimes reacts negatively to it.

      Usually the problem is that the milk is pasteurized, which is heavily processed with synthetic minerals and nutrients. The pH is also acidic instead of alkaline or basic like raw milk that hasn't been tampered with. Just a factor to consider. Often times, the problem is not the milk but what they do to it.

    So I just had to call the poison control helpline a couple weeks ago when my cat snuck a bag of raisin scones under my bed to eat verrrrry quietly. He ate three whole scones. And the helpline basically said that while we don't know why a tiny percentage of cats were affected by grapes and raisins - according to the helpline, only a handful of cases from their records - they all had underlying conditions that could have complicated the matter - cats don't seem negatively affected by grapes and raisins like dogs. So even though my cat ate a bunch of raisins over the course of two days, he had no sign of issues, like vomiting, excessive energy or lethargy, increased thirst, etc. So I didn't take him to the vet. But always be aware of any sudden changes to your cats behavior in conjunction with consumption of grapes or raisins. At least that's what the aspca poison control helpline told me.
