Thanks for your reply, funchy.
I have been reading lately about the ill effects of commercial cat food, and the benefits of a raw diet for cats.
I know you have to carefully add taurine and other supplements to cat food if you're going to make your own, but for now I still feed him mostly commercial food, it's a lot more convenient.
Two days ago I read about the benefits of raw liver (it has taurine and vitamin A), and I bought some human grade raw chicken livers. My cat ate a bit and threw it up (I noticed he does that with new food introduced in his diet), but then when he ate some more he seemed to have been OK with it.
BTW, my cat is about 2 years old, and for the last year I've been feeding him Purina Naturals dry food, which is still bad I think, but at least it doesn't have artificial colors, flavors or preservatives. Now I'm trying to limit the amount of dry food he receives, and add more meat, like canned Meow Mix with tuna, beef, etc., and also give him raw liver from time to time.
