this is the menu that I use for my 2 cats and 1 dog. it has been vet approved. I started one of my cats on raw at 2 1/2 wks per vet since she refused formula. with a kitten his (both your cats age while learning), the bones you will start out with are chicken wing tips and chicken breast bone. once he can eat those with no problem, go to whole wings (u may have to take a couple swings of the hammer to the wing the first couple times till he gets the idea) once he gets that without you needing to take a hammer to them, you can move to chicken leg and thigh bones. just hake a couple swings of the hammer to it for a couple times to give him the idea. cut up all meat to bite size pieces and gradually increase piece size until your giving the meal in a chunk. you can get the meat from whare ever you buy your food, though I don’t get anything except for liver, gizzards, and heart from Walmart. have had 2 bad experiences with their meat (never any issues with the organ meats), being fed raw for the animals. haven’t had issues any ware else I buy. as for how much and often to feed, my 8# cat gets 4-5oz once a day, my 6# cat gets 3oz once a day. a kitten of your boys age should be fed as much as he wants to eat 3-4 times a day within 30 min.
Sunday-1/3 liver,1/3 heart, 1/3 any secreting organ (ex: kidney, spleen, testicles, brain, eyes, pancreas – any secreting organ in the body)
Monday- chicken leg or thigh (while learning you can substitute for wings or breast)
Tuesday- steak (I buy the cheapest at the supermarket but I don’t use ground since its not as nutritious)
Wednsday- 1/3 liver,1/3 heart, 1/3 any secreting organ (ex: kidney, spleen, testicles, brain, eyes, pancreas – any secreting organ in the body)
Thursday- chicken breast
Friday- pork
Saturday- steak (I buy the cheapest at the supermarket but I don’t use ground since its not as nutritious)
