Wanted your thoughts on raw food diet both in terms of brands or mixes for vitamin content. Until reading your article I did not know about the AADFO(?) so that may be helpful.
With raw food diet is it only safe for younger cats or seniors as well? We had switched our senior cat to the raw food diet and she seemed more energetic, fur softer than ever, no dandruff, etc. She ended up passing away really fast with impact on kidneys and gallbladder. Having already lost a cat to CKD I realized maybe putting a senior on protein rich diet was dangerous. Her previous kidney panel had been normal but she was 3 months overdue for her 6 month panel check up. I want to make sure we are doing the best for our younger cats but also know changes that may need to happen as they age?
