We are asked all the time whether or not our raw meat diet (the BARF DIET) is suitable for cats. The answer is absolutely, YES! Our diets have been fed exclusively to the nations exotic zoo cats for decades.
Dogs are much easier to feed then cats, primarily because palatability is much less of an issue with dogs than it is with cats. Dogs are carnivores also but the difference is that they can consume more vegetable matter per body weight than cats. So, an easy conversion can be made on the dog diet to conform to the cats additional protein requirement. I suggest that to convert the BARF diet formulation to an acceptable cat formulation requires an additional protein supplementation.
