Why Raw Feeding Your Cat or Dog Keeps Them Healthy?

There are a number of reasons why there is a big increase in the number of pet owners making the move to Raw Feeding.

The Disadvantages of Commercial Pet Food:

Feeding your pet dry, commercial pet food has numerous disadvantages:

  • The undeclared additives
  • Ingredients of many commercial pet foods include bacteria, mycotoxins, euthanasia drugs and other contaminants and some are3 supposedly high end formulas

Even uncontaminated dry food has its drawbacks:

  • Lack of dietary moisture
  • Lower nutrition levels due to high heat and extrusion
  • Reduced amino acids
  • High levels of Advanced Malliard Reaction End Products (MRPs)
  • High levels of Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs)

The Advantages of Raw Feeding:

While Commercial Processed Pet Food isn’t all bad, the extra benefits of Raw Feeding are many:
Higher levels of amino acids
More enzymes, gut-friendly bacteria, antioxidants, fatty acids & phytonutrients.

Most owners will soon notice the changes in their raw fed pet including:

  • Shinier coat
  • Teeth that are cleaner
  • Smaller stools
  • Better skin health
  • Much higher energy levels
  • Generally happier pets

But there are some potential risks in raw feeding your dog or cat without expert guidance particularly:

  • Levels of bacteria in raw food from untrusted sources with no knowledge of how to prepare meat for a raw food diet. These bacteria can expose both you and your pet/s to illness
  • The potential for your dog or cat to choke on splintered bones, break teeth or puncture an internal organ
  • Exposing your dog or cat to an unbalanced diet that can affect their health over a long  period.

It cannot be stressed enough the importance of getting professional advice before starting a raw feeding programme and sourcing your pet food from a reputable raw food supplier. With the increasing popularity of raw feeding in New Zealand a lot of companies are offering raw food as an additional product line. We suggest you look to a specialist supplier like Dr Lyn Thomson who started Raw Essentials in 2008 to provide ethically-sourced, high quality product to people looking for a better diet for their pets and has now expanded to nine stores across Auckland and Hamilton.

You’ll notice the difference in your loved pet very soon after starting a structured Raw Feeding Programme but it has to be done properly.
