Cat Food - help with a new cat food


Expert: Marie Peppers / Cat Food / NuVet Feline Formula. - 4/30/2009

Question
Hi, Thank you for your service.  My cat just had an allergy panel done. Can you please tell me what food you suggest. She can't eat Peanut, Corn, Soy, Whole Milk, Cheddar Cheese, Almond, Bacon, Liver, Mushroom or Venison She is also very fussy and I buy food and end up giving it away.  Also is there a treat I can give her? I am going crazy reading all these labels and Pet Co and Petsmart are no help.

Answer
Hello Victoria-  Wow, poor cat!  Yes, I can help but you are so limited...So sorry....
Ok - here is some balanced feeding :  HOPE you don't mind cooking for your cat kid??????

Feline Feeding Formula:

Meat 98%

       ground raw turkey

       ground raw chicken

       raw or cooked seafood (taurine does not cook out of seafood)

       tuna in water  (occasionally, not daily)

Grain 1%:

       Oatmeal, oatbran, rice, barley (grind into flour in blender or food processor)

only feed grain occasionally  

Vegetables 1%:

       puréed, juiced, raw or steamed -- this should ideally be a salad.

only feed salad occasionally


Bone meal: Mix 1/4 teaspoon into raw meat every few days

Allow cats to eat as much as they want for a month until they have detoxified and you will get an idea of how much to feed them.

When eating a strict diet of commercial food, cats do not feel satiated but, when they eat real food, they will tell you how much they need.


Use some NuVET Feline Formual

Feline Formual is a wonderful vitamin needed when you do home-cooking for your cats..



I hope this helps...

Wish I had more recipes for you - YOU will have to be creative on your own.
