What Raw Pet Food?

Let us help

It's a question so many people ask

What Raw Pet Food? Where do I start?

Venturing into the world of raw pet food can be daunting. With a myriad of options available, you might be wondering, "What raw pet food do I buy?" or "How do I start?" In this comprehensive guide, we at Nurturing by Nature are here to unravel these questions and introduce you to the world of raw feeding in our unique, nature-centric approach.

 

Nature’s Blueprint: Understanding Raw Diet

Nature is an astute teacher, and by observing it, we can discern what's best for our pets. The anatomy of cats and dogs tells a tale of carnivorous origins. Their sharp teeth, strong jaw, and digestive system are inherently designed to process raw food. It's no surprise then that many pet owners and experts believe that a raw diet is the most biologically appropriate choice for our pets.

Our conviction at Nurturing by Nature about raw pet food has only deepened over time, further cemented by countless personal and community experiences. But this isn't just about mimicking the wild; it's about blending nature with research, ensuring we're meeting nutritional needs and offering convenience.

Getting started

Starting the Raw Journey: The Chicken Base

One of the best starting points when delving into raw pet food is chicken. It's not only an abundant protein source in the UK but also the most affordable product within our range.

When transitioning to a raw diet, establishing a base is crucial. Think of this as your pet’s staple meal. This base aids in ensuring consistent nutrition while keeping costs manageable. With chicken as the foundational meal, you're ensuring your pet gets a consistent, healthy, and affordable diet.

 

Introducing Variety: More than Just Chicken

Once you're confident in your chicken-based meal and observe that your pet is thriving, it's time to diversify. From beef to fish and lamb, the possibilities are vast.

When introducing new protein sources, it's crucial to monitor your pet’s digestion. This might seem tedious, but it's a necessary investment of your time that will deepen your understanding of your pet’s nutritional needs and responses. Once you've gauged their reactions to various proteins, you can further enrich their meals with bones, chunks, and treats.

 

The Joy of Natural Eating Behaviours

Beyond just nutrition, a raw diet offers a chance for your pets to tap into their natural instincts. Letting a dog chew on a chicken carcass or a lamb rib isn't just about feeding; it's an experience. Such activities are not only excellent for their dental health but also release endorphins as they figure out how to tackle their meal, offering both physical and mental stimulation.

 

The Bottom Line: Raw is Natural and Beneficial

Raw pet food, especially when approached with knowledge and care, can offer numerous benefits. High-quality ingredients, though sometimes pricier, can lead to improved health and potentially fewer vet visits. And just like in our lives, the emphasis on being fit and healthy cannot be understated.

Key Take aways:
Raw diets are biologically suited for our pets.
