I'm going to ask my vet if I can do this for my cat that has urinary issues as most over thr counter car foods are a no go for him.
I think it's great you are making your cat's food! One thing I noticed is it looks like there are no bones, or maybe there are. Cats need 10% bone for the calcium according to catinfo.org (a reputable site for making cat food). One problem is that adding cooked bone can cause splintering and sharp edges so it is actually better raw. You can buy preground raw bone online to add to your chicken mixture, or ground raw eggshells. I would encourage anyone interested to read the catinfo.org site to start.
I thought I heard cooked bones are bad for cats. Is it because it's boiled and not cooked in an oven? Thank you for the video!
Hey Mrs. Martin; when you take the food out of the fridge; do you heat it up, or do you simply scoop a little out straight from the fridge? Otherwise, I love this idea and it's sure to please my kitty.
Vertical video, ugh. It makes it really hard to appreciate video without cringing, most people have posted IP pet food for dogs. Keep in mind, you are using a camera that has a phone app. Do you hold your Canon camera vertically to shoot video?
With all the bones you run a risk of giving your cat too much calcium. You also need to add Taurine & other needed vitamins. Cooked chicken by itself is not a complete meal for a cat.
for anyone doing this, consider also adding some extra things in the blending process like egg yolk, iodine salt, organ meat, lysine vitamins, salmon oil, fish oil etc.
Do you grind the bones, also?
