The prey model diet is a raw feeding approach that aims to mimic the diet of wild animals by feeding cats and dogs a combination of raw meat, bones, and organs. A typical prey model diet blend of possum, kangaroo & lamb tripe contains the following:

Wild Possum:

1. Possum is a particularly good source of high-quality protein, with all of the essential amino acids that your pet’s body needs.
2. A good source of iron and zinc, which are important for healthy red blood cells and immune function, respectively.
3. Contains vitamins B6 and B12, which are important for nerve function and DNA synthesis.
4.  Possum has an excellent ratio of Omega fatty acids, which are vital for controlling inflammation.
5. They are packed full of beneficial vitamins and minerals.

Wild Kangaroo:

1. Low in fat
2. High-quality protein
3. Rich in vitamins and minerals, including vitamin B12, iron, and zinc
4. Good source of omega-3 fatty acids
5. Contains conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), which has been shown to have health benefits such as reducing inflammation and supporting immune function
6. Good source of selenium and phosphorus

Lamb’s Green Tripe:

1. High-quality protein
2. Good source of probiotics, which can help support digestive health
3. Contains digestive enzymes, which can help dogs better absorb nutrients from their food
4. Good source of calcium and phosphorus, which are important for bone health

4. Kangaroo liver is a good source of vitamin A, which is important for vision, immune function, and healthy skin and coat
5. Kangaroo kidneys are a good source of vitamin B12, which is important for the nervous system, red blood cell production, and DNA synthesis

Recommended feeding:

For Dogs: 20g per Kg of body weight. i.e. 5kg dog = 20 x 5 = 100g of food per day

For Puppies & Kittens:  Up to 18 months of age. 40g per 1Kg of body weight. i.e. 5 kg puppy = 40 x 5 = 200g of food per day.

Cats:  Approx. 200g per day

Every pet is unique and has different nutritional requirements, adjust feeding levels according to the activity levels and condition of your pet.

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.
