IS RAW MEAT GOOD OR BAD FOR OUR CATS?

Today I will be talking about meat and whether you can give it to your cat or not. In this article, we will also be sharing all precautions you must be aware of.

A lot of people ask whether you can give your cats meat. The answer is, of course! Meat is a basic need in your cat’s diet. You can also give your cat chicken, mutton, beef, and even slaughtered meat.

You can give your feline any part of slaughtered meat, even the parts you yourself don’t eat. The main precaution is don’t give them a lot of drippings/fat. So, for example, if you have 1kg meat, only add 50 to 100 gm of dripping (otherwise, it can be harmful and cause problems).

Another common question is whether you can give chicken and mutton. The answer is definitely and you should be providing at least one small piece of chicken to your cat daily. I have a whole post about homemade cat food, which is inexpensive, healthy, and easy to make.

Remember that mutton is quite heavy, so you should only add a small amount. 

If your cat has never had meat before give it small portions at first so that it doesn’t suffer from diarrhea and vomiting.

If your cat is eating raw meat already, then that’s very good. Don’t switch instantly if it isn’t. Make sure the heart is cleaned thoroughly. You will notice your cat’s health increasing.

Another thing ill mention here is that if your cat is around 7 to 10 years old, don’t give it raw meat, mutton, or even beef. To them, it’s heavy and can be very dangerous. Also, you can provide camel meat to your cats but in a minimal amount.
