Mainecoons Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 I was contacted by a Jeffrey of "Cat & Dog Nutrition" who apparently was local here but moved to Bucerias but will be offering natural cat and dog food here. Not sure how he got my email address but I am curious as to who he is and your experience with his cat food. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwhite1948 Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 Ex-owner Cafe Magana. He had opened a natural pet food store here, but has moved (returned??) to Bucerias. He originally lived at a beach town before coming to Ajijic, can't remember if it was Bucerias or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exyyz Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 I did buy the raw cat food from him for a very picky eater with health problems. Mr. Picky loved the food and he flourished on it as he needs a higher taurine level that is available in raw food. I was sorry, and so was Mr. Picky, to see the store close.

exyyz Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 Mainecoons...can you give me his e-mail please. I apparently did such a good job of deleting old e-mails I deleted things I wanted, even from the trash. Tried to PM you but it wouldn't go through for some reason. TIA.

Zeb Posted June 10, 2016 Report Share Posted June 10, 2016 I have talked to him at length. I have done much research on the raw food diet. I make my own. It is properly balanced. The recipe I use is from a veterinarian. He and I compared notes. We basically make the same recipe, except mine is better because I am able to incorporate and grind the bones/calcium right into the food. Turns out he has a poor quality grinder and the bones won't go through it. Also, as he explained, much of his clientele does not really understand about this type of diet and are afraid because they are applying human comparisons to what is safe to be put in food, such as the raw eggs which are a very necessary ingredient. I have made this diet for our two very healthy cats for years. What he does is good, so I would not be afraid to buy from him if I was unable to make mine. If you buy from him, be sure to purchase the raw bones, so the cats can get their calcium and their natural instincts needs to chew on raw bones. OR, you can do what I do, buy a great grinder, make your own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PORTIMOM Posted June 10, 2016 Report Share Posted June 10, 2016 Zeb, We too make our own raw. We also grind the bones very fine in that grinder. I sent you a PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MtnMama Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 RAW bones are perfectly safe and healthy for dogs and cats to eat. Their digestive systems are designed to process bones. Think about what they eat in the wild. COOKED bones, on the other hand, are very dangerous. The composition changes with heat. THis is why heating RAW food is unwise.
