How do you recommend introducing raw to a new kitten?
We are getting an american bobtail today, he has been eating royal canin dry kitten food and I want to feed him raw...our bengal Moshe is on 100% raw and I want them both on it.
Any ideas? When I got Moshe his breeder was already feeding a raw diet.

Slowly I think would be the advice. Not only will the kitten be new to raw, it sounds as if it will also be his first experience of wet food so that's another new element. I would leave him on his familiar food until you're happy that he's fully settled in your home. Then, you could start giving him very small amounts of raw to see how he (and his tummy ) reacts. What sort of raw do you feed your Bengal? Mine have raw that is specially prepared for cats and so it's quite similar to canned food, just with a few extra "bits". I gave it to my moggy kittens from about 6 months and they were fine with it but they were already used to wet food.

I get a special blend for cats..it is rabbit, chicken necks, chicken hearts, and egg yolk. I also ordered some plain chicken and bone. I add Platinum Performance and Taurine.
I gave him a little taste and he went nuts for the raw...so I guess next is see how his tummy does. I was afriad he wouldn't like it, but he loved it!
