Raw food training in the porch

Not much progress so far. Gerald and Misty are already eating 100% raw meals, but Creamy is only willing to eat cut-up raw meat and not Coco&Joe’s.

The same as a few days ago. But I’m not complaining because Creamy probably gets food from home so he would prefer canned or kibble.

Breakfast for everyone!

Today, we achieved 100% raw for breakfast!! Yes, for all of our 18 cats.

The day started with the Porch Cats:

Here’s the trick to starting raw that works for our cats – give them cut-up raw chicken meat. Somehow this works better than the homebased raw food with supplements. Maybe it’s “purer”, I […]

Creamy’s boycott

Gerald and Misty had a raw meal breakfast today.

By the way, I was scrolling through past blogposts this morning and came across a cat I had named Trixie during Samantha’s free roaming days. Actually, Trixie is Misty!!

I thought Misty was a new tortie, but no, Misty is Trixie!

Misty Trixie! Trixie Misty!

Anyway, […]

Misty and Gerald can eat a 100% raw meal!!

It only took one day to convert Misty!

Gerald has been exposed to raw food before this, but yesterday, both of them had raw food mixed with their canned food.

This morning, I tried 100% raw and both finished it!

Misty actually preferred the cut-up raw meat to Coco’s. But Gerald prefers […]

Gerald and Misty’s ongoing training

This morning, the ratio of raw:canned was 1:2. This evening, it’s 1:1. Yes, they sapu habis!

I think Gerald can progress faster.

The Princesses who eat like….Monsters!

Haha…but that’s a good thing and I’m certainly not complaining!

Eat, eat, eat!!

That’s pretty much for kittens, right? Sometimes, they can eat three times this amount!

Chomp, chomp, chomp….

Riley, unlike the Princesses, is an anorexic eater. But her weight is good, so I guess I […]

Training the porch cats to eat raw food

I started training Gerald some weeks back but I wasn’t consistent enough, so the training is ongoing, but at the pace I can manage.

Inside the house, everyone is on a 100% raw diet but the Super Seniors and Tabs get some leeway.

So this morning, instead of one can (of canned […]

BARF – First attempt (Joy’s cats)!

Good morning, it’s Joy here.

I am on a journey to transition some, if not all, of my cats to raw. With more than half being seniors, I would like them to benefit from this and have them live their lives healthy to a good old age.

First attempt :

Ate : 1 (Yasmin)

Licked […]

The Princesses’ updates – it’s novel protein day!

It’s novel protein day today, so the Princesses and Samantha had Cubgrub’s Duck for breakfast.

An novel protein is a protein that is not part of the animal’s regular diet. A novel protein’s function is to prevent food allergy with the commonly used proteins such as chicken and fish.

This […]
