Thank you for the coupon code, I just signed up for a subscription. My girl isn't a picky eater (she's an 11-month-old Maine Coon - IOW, a furry garbage disposal). She's been on another brand's raw frozen nuggets but I was having difficulty with consistent stock levels and protein choices locally (they only stocked chicken/salmon and rabbit with a huge price gap between the two). I want to give her choices of flavors while still staying in a single brand. EDIT 2/22/2023: We received our first Viva Raw delivery yesterday. As predicted, my furry garbage disposal gobbled it down and then licked the cutting board I used to turn the frozen blocks into portions. I'm glad I stopped to watch this video! I'm so excited to be able to offer my girl such a varied array of flavors and textures.
I've been feeding my two cats Viva complete for cats for several months now and I've been so so happy with their product. My cats love it too. The most striking thing in switching them to raw from a wet (but processed) canned diet was that my older boy Hanks who has had issues with high pancreatic enzymes in his bloodwork (emblematic of pancreatitis), and bloodwork/urinalysis that suggested he was in the early stages of kidney disease, his last bloodwork showed that his pancreatic enzymes are back to normal, and one of his kidney biomarkers was also normal! I don't know if this is due to the diet change exclusively, but I can't imagine it's not providing *some* benefit. Highly recommend.
My kitties love this stuff so much and I love Viva's prices. They also just smell and appear so much more high quality than other pre-made foods I've tried (actually raw meat colored as opposed to grey or brown) Thanks for the review!
Yay! Me and my kitties love viva raw so I’m glad it passed your test too! Although, I found out about them from your channel in the first place so I’m not surprised 😂🩷 but great to hear some of the things you thought could be improved in their formulas!
Thank you so much for this review! Your video was very informative about the Viva cat food choices. My kitty was on a diet of 2/3's wet can food and 1/3rd kibbles/Orijen about two years ago. Then after a vet visit showing she was starting kidney issues, I eliminated all kibbles and went to all wet Orijen canned food with bone broth. It had just been introduced on the market. She LOVED this so much and ate 2 cans per day, which was pricey but cheaper than ongoing vet visits. But moreover, her health turned around within 3 weeks and she was playful like a kitten again. I did try raw before and she wouldn't have anything to do with it. But after watching this video and reading the comments, I am going to give it another shot. And it should be an easier transition since she doesn't eat kibbles at all. I also really like that Viva has incorporated the vital nutrients to meet kitties' nutritional needs. I hope that Viva also sees this video and makes the recommended fat and organ changes you mentioned. Blessings to you for taking the time to help other cats and pet owners.
Cats take a little more work to transition. It took me two months to get my cats from free fed kibble to twice a day raw. But it can be done. First I went kibble twice a day, slowly transitioned to canned twice a day then slowly transition to Raw twice a day.
i love, love, LOVE your channel so much! it has taught me so much in a short amount of time and has prompted me to continue learning about feline nutrition. however, i wish your content included more raw cat/kitten recipes and/or information. either way, i am truly grateful for all your content! have you done any reviews on Raw Feeding Miami? or freeze-dried products?
This was quite informative! Can you please do a review on Carnivora whole ground animal diets? This is what I’ve been using. My vet suggested that I don’t need to add supplements since it is whole animal. However, based on your video I’m seeing that maybe I should add extra heart to their diet to get more taurine.
This sounds like a wonderful option for prepared raw food. I do make my own but I do supplement with premade raw, especially when I can get rare meats like rabbit and quail and other things. When it comes to fat, I do make my own bone broth for my kitties and I include the chicken fat and skins to supplement the broth making process. I don’t give her a ton of fat in the finished product but I leave some snd she loves the bone broth I make with just bones and water and a smidge of raw apple cider vinegar to draw out more goodness from the bones. I use the broth as part of the hydration for her night time meals. Along with a tablespoon or so of hot water to warm up the food after being in the fridge. My kitty loves getting it a little warmed up that way. Having switched her to raw, the vet is very impressed on how much healthier she is since I adopted her. She was so skinny before and lacked muscle tone. Partly because she’d barf up her food a lot. Now she rarely does. Last time she barged was this past July. But then again I took her to visit my mom and I noticed some treats I gave her didn’t sit well even tho they were treats I had given her before.
really well done review and great editing skills. i love your knowledge and ability to share the details of the ingredients and why. thank you on the fat content thing, i didn't know that.
We have two kittens that love Viva Raw. I have been rotating the beef regularly but mainly because it's their favorite, but thanks to your video I have a better reason to make sure it gets rotated in. Thank you. Also, they just had Elk yesterday and LOVE it.
I learned that cats need a variety of proteins so we get them all and rotate through. The bird and rabbit are a bit lean for cats, so we will rotate beef in fairly often. The only one I might suggest to not get is chicken. Our kittens loved it at first, but now they turn their noses up at it unless they're super hungry. I still get it but I add some hearts and gizzards for texture. @@don2672
Thanks for the review. Unfortunately, it is not available in Denmark. Ugh...Vi have something similar from Finland - 63% chicken(hearts,meat, bones, cartilage),36% beef (meat, lung, heart,liver, and cartilage), 1%Oil (coldpressed sunflower seed oil and seaweed). I'm not sure this is complete even though the company says so.
While we haven't switched yet. . .Viva is presently at the top of my list to switch to a commerical raw for our boys before the eventual deep dive into DIY. I haven't seen anyone yet complain about them, and their prices compared to the rest of the market absolutely standout. I also figure it isn't too difficult to add a little fat back in, if need be, by just using trimmings from our own meals in small amounts occasionally.
I just tried Smalls but one of my cats doesn’t like the texture so my other cat would eat all on her own 😢 is Viva Raws texture different? More like the gravy wet can foods? He hates pate
Love them. I have 1 picky kitty so I'm currently mixing 2 complete with 1 pure and just adding in a little extra taurine. My next order will be 3 to 1. When I was at a 50/50 I was still adding in Alnutrin. But since I'm at 66.5/33.5 I'm not doing that I'm just adding in extra taurine for 30 days. She's coming around to the complete.
@ingridearls4857 She ate the Pure ok with the Alnutrin mixed in. To switch her to the Complete that she didn't like at first I mixed half and half. I did that for a whole order. Then did 2 Complete to 1 Pure for a whole order. Then full complete. I just moved slow.
I'm not crazy about viva raw complete recipes, I prefer the company called "hare today" they include more organs and complete animals with fur and remove intestines.
Hi, I love your videos. I feel overwhelmed doing home feeding, I tried with my dog and he had some liver complications so I would prefer to buy ready. Now I have 2 cats, I was feeding my cats viva for a few months but they stopped eating it. I have been on a hunt for another brand I can trust. Are you familiar with raw paws signature blends for cats and dogs? I just ordered a variety. My concern is that cats and dogs need dif ingredients added and they don't add any. Looked for "complete diet" but could not find. My only other choice was Darwins but they are limmited in their protein selection. I would rally love your help please. Thanks in advance!!!
Very good explaination ❤❤❤ Well done! I do question the high bone content though. 10 % is to much for a lot of cats. Constipation can become a problem.
4 -5 % bone is in the raw food for cats in the swedish market. My food was around the same, when I still included raw bones. One of my cats has stomack issues, so she couldn't handle raw bone. Today I use a supplement to cover for the missing bone. Ca:p kvot is around 1:2 if I remember correctly.
Love Vivaraw! Your videos have been so helpful in understanding in-depth nutritionally complete raw feeding. However, are there good animal-based substitutes for mussels that does not contain iodine? My cat has hyperthyroidism from before her raw diet regime, and anything with iodine causes her to get sick. And I’m struggling to find mussels/seaweed substitutes. Or maybe, do you offer consultations?
I have two cats (both about 1 1/2 years old) and they seem to always want to eat/be hungry. They should be about 8 and 10 pounds. Should I stop feeding them every time they ask for food? I see someone in the comments only feeds theirs twice a day. One of my boys is solid lol...he is heavy but doesn't look overweight.
It's always best to have a regular food eating schedule. I've done an extensive amount of research and have had cats for over two decades now. The best way to feed them would be 4 small portions throughout the day. But most people only have the time to feed two portions a day. It's best to feed them the same portion at the same time every day so they have a schedule they can rely on. If you feed them whenever they ask you will promote and possibly get cats that are vocal without stop at all hours of the day, since they expect being fed whenever they become vocal.
i have been feeding my cats (7) a home made raw diet for over 10 years.Since i discovered viva raw and decided to give it a try. It was all good in the beginning but recently i have noticed most of them are drinking a lot more water. Sometimes even half way through the meal they would need to take a drink of water. Is there something in the food that’s causing this? has anyone else experienced this? thanks!
I have 3 kitties, all 3 love the chicken and turkey. 2 tolerate the beef, but don't really like it, and the other is allergic. This one cat is also allergic to their rabbit and duck recipes as well. Do you have any recommendations on how to get that added fat in their diet without being able to use the beef? I know that they need more variety than just turkey and chicken, but I am not too sure which protein to use. None of them really like pork, which Viva doesn't offer.
I recommend finding food with other red meats like lamb and venison. I believe all of vivas seasonal proteins are red meat as well. Some of the brands I shop from are small batch (they have lamb), lotus raw (I believe they have a venison recipe), and hare today which sells blends, but make sure the blend is around 80/10/10 though. Hare today also has alpaca and other novel proteins!! Edit: I forgot to put this in the original, but the hare today blends need a premix without organs. I recommend alnutrin (the meat and bone one!!)
I'm from Ukraine and barely found a few companies that make the whole raw diet for cats. Unfortunately, they don't have added supplements so it's not enough to feed the only that food. And I have a question - is it okay to feed grown cats the ground food, not the bites?
I’m not the creator of the video, but I recommend starting with ones that are common to find in cat food since by four months they’re probably starting to or are eating solids. Although, I know a lot of cats like the rabbit one!!
My cat loves quail. He will strike if we couldnt get our hands on some. They only take out guts. On the fat aubject thats interesting. I recently started outting a spoon of lard in case he wants some Sometimes ge will sometimes he wont
I wanted to start with feeding my cats raw so I watched this video, but now I’m starting to have worries of toxoplasmosis. I really don’t want to get that or have my cats get it. I’m unsure of what to do now:(
Hey! It's been awhile, I don't remember the name I chose for Heartbeat when I was a subscriber. But anyway, is there a way that you could do a video on BJ's raw complete cat food? They have five complete categories. Premium mix that is a mix of multiple different animals. Single ingredient ones, like beef, chicken, rabbit, and turkey. They're price per lb is this. (I rounded up jsyk) Premium: 6.90 per lb Chicken: 6.60 per lb Beef: 7.10 per lb Turkey: 7.80 per lb Rabbit: 12.30 per lb The problem is that their ingredients listed on the BJ's website is a little bit sparse, it only gives you the source meat, telling you that there's Beef liver, tripe, heart, beef meat, ect. It doesn't say if it has the required manganese or iodine or other essentials. Could you possibly do a deep dive like with viva in this video about BJ's? Thank! ❤
I believe I talked about them in one of my Paws of Prey Club livestreams, but I didn't go full on review mode lol. I may do a review video for them some day!
Maev's food is a cool concept, but their recipes *really* don't provide much fat at all, even for dogs. They're also pretty vegetable heavy. I'm also not sure where the calcium would be coming from since they don't add meaty bones or a calcium supplement of some kind.
@@PawsofPrey Thanks for the reply and info! Was trying to look for something that might be easier to feed when family watches them or when they have to be boarded. Any recommendations or do you have any videos that touch on this?
We're not obligate carnivores. Some people have trouble digesting meat. Whether or not it's genetic, gut microbiome imbalance, enzyme deficiency, etc, it's too soon to tell. All we know is carnivore appears contraindicated for some people
Their company is a joke! You have to order a MINIMUM of 10 POUNDS 🤬 Who in their right mind is going to spend 100s of dollars on 10 POUNDS of cat food when they only have 1 cat and 90% of cat's Hate raw food! You might as well put a match to a few hundred dollars and save yourself the headache 🙄

Question: Will my kitties recipe be balanced?
Ingredients:
30 percent Chicken Thighs with Bone
10 Percent Beef
17 Percent Pork
15 Percent Hearts
10 Percent Lamb Tripe
3 Percent Beef liver
4 Percent Pork Spleen
4 Percent Pork Kidney
7 Percent Eggs & Cranberries
Sardines Toppers
And Supplement’s be completely balanced?😺 Please send feedback.
I just got into VIVA. You should do a review on Smalls as well. They are significantly more expensive but also offer premade raw.

Very nice video. I had not heard of a pre-made raw food for cats. I'll check them out. Thanks.
Lol you can’t be serious? A simple Google search “raw cat food” pulls up a bunch of results of pre-made raw cat food . . .
So if beef pork or chicken heart are ground then frozen they will not provide sufficient taurine as it oxidises at 15% of the total recipe?
I would love to hear how you feel about this for ferrets? Or at least the pure version.
I'm not crazy about viva raw complete recipes, I prefer the company called "hare today" they include more organs and complete animals with fur and remove intestines.
Care to elaborate as to why you do not like Viva? I am considering it.

Very good explaination ❤❤❤ Well done! I do question the high bone content though. 10 % is to much for a lot of cats. Constipation can become a problem.
10% bone is not high content. It all depends on your cat's health. Look at your cat's poop, if it's whitish, it shows there's too much bone content.
4 -5 % bone is in the raw food for cats in the swedish market. My food was around the same, when I still included raw bones. One of my cats has stomack issues, so she couldn't handle raw bone. Today I use a supplement to cover for the missing bone. Ca:p kvot is around 1:2 if I remember correctly.

Hey! It's been awhile, I don't remember the name I chose for Heartbeat when I was a subscriber. But anyway, is there a way that you could do a video on BJ's raw complete cat food?
