Kitten Handbook & More Resources

A whole mouse, quail, chick, or rabbit can teach us a lot about what cats naturally consume. Explore the role of muscle meat, organs, bone, and other parts of the prey animal in raw feeding.

Homemade raw can be a wonderful way to feed your cat, but it requires more than raw meat and a recipe. Here's what you should realistically consider before taking on the responsibility of making your cat's food.

Cats don't always drink much water—and that's one reason the moisture in their food matters. Learn about hydration, raw and wet food, water bowls and fountains, and urinary health in cats, especially males.

Is raw food safe for cats? Learn about Salmonella and raw feeding, including contamination, hygiene, food handling, commercial raw food, homemade diets, and practical ways to reduce risk.

Want to feed your cat raw but aren't sure whether to make it yourself? Compare homemade and premade raw food, including the time, equipment, nutrition, cost, storage, and responsibility involved with each.
