I have posted before and participated in

cat health discussions a couple of times.

After talking to several people the past few

weeks, I am becoming more and more interested

in feeding Gus raw meat- age 17 and a half - diabetic

for 8 plus years and just diagnosed with kidney

failure - 36 Creat. and 2.4 are the numbers the

vet gave me for him. I don't like the K.D. food

for him too much as I think it is raising his sugar

and have been giving him extra meat anyway. I did give

him some raw ground chicken tonight which he inhaled

practically. I've been guessing with everything

as I don't have sugar numbers on him and I'm trusting

what Dr. Tobin said about the kidney failure not

being too bad. He suggested raw hamburg with

bone meal and fish oil. Haven't added anything

to to ground chicken yet it was the first day.

Any added ideas about this would be welcome.

I was very leery about the idea of raw meat at first

but it sounds like it could actually be very good

for him. Thank you so much for your thoughts.

he generally eats pretty well. When he is hungry

all the time I think it's his sugar...
