Three times a day we feed raw chicken from Hare-Today.com & add Nuvet Immune System Building Powder.
Because we recognize that all homes cannot do raw, we also leave pawTree Dry Grain-Free Chicken food out daily.
Each kitten eats about 4 oz (1/4-1/3 cup) of raw per meal, we recommend ordering raw & pawTree food in advance:
Use the Raw Daily Calculator to get an idea of how much to feed your cat or kitten. It’s very important to handle raw properly, avoid grocery store meats for pet use and purchase from immediate slaughter and freeze sources such as local farms, or specializing companies such as Hare Today or Fegnion.
NuVet is an excellent immune system building powder that can be easily sprinkled onto food. Their feline formula is a high-quality supplement that incorporates a precise formula of antioxidants, amino acids, taurine, vitamins, minerals, enzymes, herbs and more.

What we don’t have:
Interested in making your own raw? Here’s an excellent recipe and website to help understand the basics of getting started using your own grinder: Feline-Nutrition.org – Quick Start Guide. Do not use grocery store meats, they are not handled quickly enough and often have too much bacteria growth. These meats are meant to be cooked before human consumption.
You can purchase ground chicken from Hare-Today. During farming season we often purchase whole chickens from a local farm and package and grind the meat ourselves. We use a Weston 22 commercial grinder (Retails for around $600) but the Tasin TS 108 is highly rated as a good home grinder for around $150.

For an insightful explanation on why raw is the optimal feline diet, check out Dr. Karen Becker’s video below:
Because kittens tend to eat litter when weaning & litter box training we use Feline Pine Pellets in traditional style litter pans. It’s also significantly less messy with playful kittens. We recommend starting your kitten off with pine pellets in a small room, such as a bath room, for the first 48 hours and gradually transition to your preferred litter. For clumping litter, we use Dr. Elsey’s Kitten Attract or Cat Attract Litter for some of our adults. Sometimes accidents happen & when they do, we use pawTree Odor & Stain mover, found online at: www.MyPawPets.com
