Oh yeah, I completely understand! I don't do raw or homemade myself for JUST that reason, too much effort (and money)! It might be ok to just feed him the chicken and turkey you are plus a bit of a general supplement, like say Feline Missing Link, or Vita-tabs, or anything just as a general vitamin/mineral source (not optimal, but better than just the meat alone). If he's refusing to eat the kibble, and all he is eating is chicken and turkey though, it's not going to be a viable long-term option. lemme see... there are commercially prepared raw diets... maybe that he would eat. http://www.wildkittycatfood.com/ http://www.homemade4life.com/main.html http://www.onlynaturalpet.com/products/Northwest-Naturals-Raw-Cat-Food/167014.aspx http://www.onlynaturalpet.com/products/Primal-Pet-Foods-Raw-Cat-Food/165006.aspx http://www.onlynaturalpet.com/products/Natures-Variety-Raw-Food-Diets/131069.aspx http://www.felinefuture.com/products/ (a premade supplement balanced to just add water, organs and meat and feed)
There are many others. Money is MY personal limiting factor as to why I don't do this. It's time and money. If I feed raw and make my own, it's a time issue; if I were to buy premade raw like those above, it's a money issue. It might not be bad for one cat, like you would need, but I have 7 cats here, one of which has no teeth, so anything I would feed to him I have to dice into 1/4 inch cubes. Anyways... at the least, the Feline Future link, the bottom one, would be a good way to make your currently fed chicken and turkey more complete (though you really should add some organs too). I just don't want you to end up with a sick cat, he can't continue to eat just chicken and turkey long term, it's not healthy or balanced. Phaewryn Don't Lose Your Pet!
