Like all mammals, cats and dogs need a variety of food. Variety is one of the cornerstones of a real food diet. We believe that balance is achieved over time, not every meal. We offer supplemented meals. However, if you’d like to make your custom pet food using our non-supplemented meats, to ensure your pet is getting all the nutrients it needs, we recommend:
ROTATING
Rotating a variety of meats (at least 3 different kinds). Sticking to one kind of food can cause nutrient excesses or deficiencies. It can also cause food sensitivities.
ADDING VEGETABLES
Occasionally adding our ground vegetable medley to the food. We recommend no more than 20%. For cats, this is optional (though highly recommended for those prone to constipation). This will help fulfill some of the nutrients (like iodine, vitamin K, etc.) that carnivores obtain from eating their prey’s digestive systems.
ADDING SUPPLEMENTS
Occasionally adding some supplements like fish oil, green multivitamin and mineral mixes, probiotics and digestive enzymes. This is meant to compensate for the fact that today’s food is no longer as nutrient dense as before.
