My cats have been on an exclusively raw meat diet for about one year now. It hasn't given them worms and it hasn't made them sick. In fact they are in much better shape than they were before.

If you are looking for more info, there is a subforum on raw feeding in the nutrition section.

Take care,

Well it took willow all of 0.3 sec's to work out the chicken wing was food , followed by 15mins of chucking it in the air, purring, scooting it around the floor before it was chewed to bits ,to say she enjoyed it would be an understatment ,think i've given it to her at just the right time as could hear a crunchy noise as she was eating her meal last nite and looks like she is breaking in her adult teeth ,altho when i looked in her mouth it looked like a T-rex had come along and swapped his teeth for her's i hope she grows into them or shes going to look like a crocodile

Willow says thanks Howlinbob was an excellent bit of advice
oh nearly forgot to ask but how often should i give her a wing every other day ok ?

Hey, well done to Elmo and Willow! Isn't it wonderful to see them enjoying their food so much.
Sounds like she's growing an impressive set of new teeth, hopefully this will keep them sparkling!

A chicken wing every other day is OK, I think. I give mine once or twice a week, but they are mostly raw fed so they get lots of chewy chunks as well.

How about a picture of Willow? xxx

Well done Willow! Isn't it fun to see them give their food flying lessons before tucking in, lol.

Re your question about how often to give her a wing... it may sound weird but you need to look at the poo. If the color gets too light it means she gets too much bone which might lead to constipation. If necessary you can replace some of the wing with tough meat for chews.

Ok thanks folks ,will try a couple of times a week to start with and see how that goes ,but yeh watching her have so much fun with food was a great feeling she must of spent 3 hours ripping and chomping on it , fingers crossed it doesnt upset her stomach

I'm putting a few pics of her togeather now howlinbob and will post in members gallery
