Whole salmon can provide several nutritional benefits to both cats and dogs in a raw food diet, including:

• 1. High-quality protein: Salmon is a good source of high-quality protein that is easily digestible and provides essential amino acids for muscle growth and repair.

  2. Omega-3 fatty acids: Salmon is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, particularly EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), which are important for supporting healthy skin and coat, reducing inflammation, and promoting brain and eye health.

  3. Vitamin D: Salmon is one of the few natural food sources of vitamin D, which is important for bone health, immune function, and overall well-being.

  4. B vitamins: Salmon is a good source of several B vitamins, including vitamin B12, niacin, and pyridoxine, which are important for energy metabolism, nervous system function, and overall health.

  5. Minerals: Salmon is a good source of minerals such as selenium, phosphorus, and potassium, which are important for maintaining healthy bones, teeth, and muscles.

     Hint

     • Cats like their meat blends at room temperature (“blood temperature”).  If meat blends are cold, add some boiled water to “warm” the meat.
     • Cats get their liquid from their meat, not usually from the water bowl.
     • Older cats need animal protein, not more carbohydrates, and fats.
