Rawfeeding, does anyone do it with Cats on here? is it beneficial?

[staydazzling]

i know a few people irl who rawfeed their dogs but i did see a few cat rawfeeders, i am curious about it, whats beneficial about it? my cat can be very funny with food, dry foid in particular i suppose a wild cat would not eat biscuits.. any advice appreciated x

Google feline TB and raw feeding. I wouldn’t....

oh i see, is it beneficial for dogs but not cats?

Cats completely raw and proud on FB is a good group
Mine gets the odd bit, he likes raw turkey mince and chicken wings and if I'm cooking some chicken he gets scraps off that before it's cooked

thanks, ill have a look, im a bit confused about the raw egg?

Bengal cat forum has raw feeding advocates. It’s a scary place & I advise not mentioning you use proprietary food.

Pets at home sell raw for cats but you have to order online.

TB in cats is massively on the increase as is salmonella etc. Our cats are far too long domesticated for raw feeding.

thats interesting, are people just assuming that because they kill animals raw meat is a good idea? i genuinely wonder why dogs cope better with it, yes re: salmonella im. surprised by all the raw eggs im seeing.

Listeria too all sorts of things that cooking kills.

Perhaps dogs are less susceptible to those diseases? Plus they can be near vegetarian so don't need as much meat.

I don’t think uk eggs carry enough salmonella to be a risk, that’s why we don’t have to keep eggs in th fridge.

Whereas in the US it’s a problem and they do refrigerate eggs and wash chicken in chlorine.

Raw chicken is the risk not eggs in the UK
