I believe this is something like our junk food. Anyway it is not as bad as it look like for short term. But long term, maybe. Else this brand won't be allowed to sell in the market right. Because I ever have this kitten age 4 months that get kidney and bladder stone while eating whiskas. My vet advice me to change the food. And always make sure my cat drink more fresh water. My kitten digestion system might not be strong to handle grains food. But now he is 1 year plus and doing so good with Blackwood + half cook meat or chicken 3 times a week.

Giving raw meat means frequent diet. Only fresh. I do give fresh sometimes, but most of the time, i will make it half cook. I make it half cook to kill the germs or any other thing that might my cat having stomach ache. Oh well, they are not wild cat, so their body system might not be as strong as the cat in the wild. This is only supplement for my cats. Other time would be Royal Canin for the kittens, and Blackwood for the adult.

I don't really agree with supplementing other foods in as part of their regular diet though, because its really hard to get the right combination for optimum health simply because they need so many things in balance. Most vets I've worked with recommend feeding raw meaty bones rather than cooked meat to pets because they have more vitamins and minerals, and are also good for their teeth. Try and tell that to my cat though ;-) Although premium food is better than the cheaper brands, the cheaper brands are equal to what premium brands were 10-15years ago, so they’re still not too bad - the downside being that inferior quality ingredients = smelly big poos.
