Caturday!
my advice? just buy the best premade food you can that's made using animal proteins. Blue wilderness is what i use to buy when I had a cat. Prioritize wet over dry but if you only have dry, you can add a bit of water to it and your cat will love it.
>>
>>20418733
Just feed it raw meat.
>>
>>20418735
Ok
>>20418737

>>20418743
Premade foods are very cucked. Ive been thinking of doing >>20418745 but idk where to get the best meat for that
>>
>>20418747
Whats with all the catphobes on ck?
>>
>>20418751
Yeah but cats can't eat only muscle meat or they'll develop deficiencies. If you want a raw diet, you'll need organ meat as well and that's where the headache starts.
>>
>>20418757
Hmmmmmmmm ok. Whats the best organ?
>>
>>20418759
You'll need whole animals like mice and rabbits. It's not a one size fits all, cats in the wild eat the whole prey.
>>
>>20418767
Thats true. Where can i buy full prey animals like that?
>>
>>20418768
Lol my cat shits in (your) garden only

Srlsy tho i dont blame you for hating cats when the elites tell you they need a litterbox
>>
>>20418769
You can either raise em yourself or buy em frozen on pet snake websites. Keep in mind that if your cat is used to dry kibbles or canned wet food, you have a near zero chance to have them eat raw shit like mice and rabbits. You'll need to prepare em yourself and hopefully your cat isn't too picky.
>>
>>20418778
No dont worry my cats come from natural litters so their mothers alr taught them what prey they can eat. The male cats catches and eats a entire mouse everyday and the female sometimes. If they can get them they even eat every part of a blackbird except the hard tail part.
>>
>>20418778
You just start feeding your cat broth with little chunks of meat with their kibble. Then slowly add more meat.

>>20418733
what I've been doing for a couple months is
de-bone ten pounds chicken leg quarters
steam the bones because I have more than enough stock
cut the bones up to make it easier to grind
I'll leave some skin on the chicken but not all.
freeze the raw meat for an hour or two
then hand grind, trying to even it out so I don't have to mix much after
raw chicken meat
cooked bone
1.25 lbs of chicken livers
1.25 lbs of chicken gizzards
the two cat's like it a lot
the younger one still eats some dry food some days
but I'll be checking >>20418735 to see If there needs to be more added. I want the cats to live long lives
I freeze the food I prepare in silicone butter molds get about 24 sticks depending if I overfill them
gives enough food for a couple weeks

when i cooked my ny strip steaks from costco, my room mate's cat would pester me for a few bites. i would only give it a few catmouth-sized pieces at first. he would jump up on my bed lean on my office chair, pawwing my shoulder, then i would take a piece and feed him like that. and then i regularly started portioning about 20% of one strip in small bitesized pieces for him. one time i was really sick and couldn't handfeed him, so i put the pieces in a bowl for him. he looked up at me almost like he couldn't believe thst all that meat was for him. when he finished he leapt up on lap and napped while purring for about an hour and a half. my room mate moved out but i still miss the cat. i wonder if the cat misses me and the streaks we would share.
>>
>>20418882
my cat's spend tons of time out doors but they are used to getting fed, and have fun with critters instead of eating them
but they hardly ever use the litter bin so that's a huge plus

'The Desire to Inspire Compassion.—La Rochefoucauld, in the most notable part of his self portraiture (first printed 1658) reaches the vital spot of truth when he warns all those endowed with reason to be on their guard against compassion, when he advises that this sentiment be left to men of the masses who stand in need of the promptings of the emotions (since they are not guided by reason) to induce them to give aid to the suffering and to be of service in misfortune: whereas compassion, in his (and Plato's) view, deprives the heart of strength. To be sure, sympathy should be manifested but men should take care not to feel it; for the unfortunate are rendered so dull that the manifestation of sympathy affords them the greatest happiness in the world'.

You really don't have to go out of your way, cats will eat just about anything. If you're preparing some kind of meat or fish for dinner, just give them some of that raw in addition to their regular food
>>
>>20418954
There are four cat personality types, like the four humors

Bruiser
Den cat
Hunter
Maverick

Bruisers maintain the hierarchy and take food from other cats
Den cats raise kittens and clean the cat colony
Hunters be hunting, they kill for food and for sport
Mavericks go outside of colony territory and sometimes move between colonies, they also hunt when bored or to gain favor with a colony
I have so many cats, bro, it's somewhere between fucking annoying and also hilarious
Humans have cohabitated with cats longer than with dogs, because watching people fail on Youtube is brand-new; watching cats fail has been timeless before time recorded history
Anyway they're obligate carnivores so they should only eat meat and fat or they can develop pancreas problems

Cats (besides parrots) are the best pets. You will cope and seethe.
>>
>>20419146

>Anyway they're obligate carnivores

That's basically the most important part to remember.
Dogs are potetially omnivor. You CAN feed a dog without meat - if you particularly REALLY hate him.
Cats are 100% carnivores.
Their whole digestive system is designed for animal protein. They don't taste sugar since carbs are irrelevant for them.
Otherwise the protein composition has to be very carefully managed for it to not be harmful - somthing pretty much only the industry can do, hence cat food being able to not completely consist of meat but also other ingredients which cats normally cannot handle well.
So feed it fresh meat and you are pretty much done. Some fish here and there and it is pretty much golden.

You can feed them cream, cream effectively has no lactose, it's in tiny trace amounts
That works for people, too, BTW, you can substitute cream and water for milk in just about anything
Also tomato soup made with 1 part cream to 2 or 3 parts water is fucking delicious, do that next time you want tomato soup

>>20419561
>My aunt who studied biology said that sugar intenifies the taste

For us? Yes. It's called synergy. Biologically they still work on completely different receptors - but just as with seeing and our eyes we taste with our BRAIN, not our mouth. The brain then combines the signals coming from all those taste receptors into sth that is more than the sum of its parts.
You can see this by the fact that often it's not as simple as "You add some spice - you taste that amount of spice". Ever eaten chocolate or ANYTHING sweet without a bit of salt? Ever eaten tomato without sugar? Does a tomato taste "sweet" to you? But the more sugar in it the more "tomato-y" it tastes.
Mixes of spices are more than the sum of their parts, hence to this day there are no serious artificial taste checking sensors, it always have to be test humans.

Yeah we had three shorthairs and adopted two out kept the little one, she basically has the cat version of Crohn's needs a special diet
Then we found her brother after the family decided they didn't want to own a cat anymore and returned him a year later, so we were like fuck it, he's coming back home
He freaked out when we took him to the vet, he thought we were returning him too, when we brought him back he basically passed out clutching me at dinner, he's a sweetheart, Achilles, you're never going to another shelter ever ever again
>>20419779
That's not how it works, when you foster kittens the point is to get them into other people's homes and lives, but some of them either bond too much or have heath or behavioral issues that make them unsuitable for adoption, people who foster call them "foster fails"
That little grey kitty had to have a ton of specialized surgery that the foster agency wasn't willing to pay for so we adopted him and found an orthopedic specialist to amputate his leg in a way that wouldn't impede his ability to sit and groom himself
Nebelungs are cool, it was money well spent, he's always happy now that he's not in pain
His umbilical cord wrapped around his foot and it atrophied and fell off a couple of months after he was born, problem is, kittens will outgrow their skin and so his leg bones were just sticking out, he needed baths 3x day until he weighed enough for the surgery, his first 9 months were constant pain
Now he's the bestest little man and fucking tripods are jacked, they're all muscle, so fun to play with

Here's Kitten
We call her Kitten because she's actually way to aggressive especially around other cats and will draw blood, I have a scar down my wrist looks like a fucking suicide attempt
She's only nice when she's one-on-one out in the garage so she's my gaming buddy (converted the garage into a TV room and put a partition in it so the other side's a shed with the pumps for the sprinkler system)

Oh I almost forgot most cats are lysine deficient so if you make their food be sure to include hearts and livers, offal meat
It's also OK for cats to have a little corn, I've never had a cat that didn't like corn chips

I usually just give the creature canned food. But occasionally I'll supplement it with sardines and kibble. She goes crazy for the deenz.

Make sure to get boneless skinless no salt added in water. The ones in oil can have garlic and onion which is toxic to cats.

cats cannot spread toxoplasmosis without raw meat intake.
that said, my mother switched to raw meat diet and do raw chicken until she found raw rabbit at a pet store. the cats would even chew up and eat the bones (which is fine for poultry as long as they are uncooked)

I walk my cat on a leash in my yard and up and down my street. How toxobrained am I?
