Chapter 6: Homemade and raw diets

Raw and homemade diets must be planned with a veterinary nutritionist. A simple mix of rice, chicken and liver will fall short on calcium, taurin and key vitamins. If you want to try one, start from a complete recipe approved by a professional rather than a recipe from social media. Raw ingredients should be frozen and thawed in the fridge, never left on the counter, because bacteria multiply fast in warm kitchens.
