Hello again! I shopped all day long to find the best deals/make sure I could get everything that I needed to switch my 3 fuzzies to raw. I will be buying commercial raw to start (natures variety... probably the lamb and/or venison) and then I found the needed organ meats. The chicken hearts, and beef liver and another beef organ I cant remember 
Of course, there is a good supply of meat such as pork, chicken and beef I will be buying as well. But here is my question:
I was thinking about starting my 3 on commercial raw (as their soupie). I was thinking about just taking 3 medallions (or 4 if needed) and blending it with a touch water to liquify. Now how do I go about this? I was thinking starting an evening meal of this (taking away kibble a couple hours before and giving back a few hours after) until they get used to it. (hopefully will get used to this within a week) Then what? lol. Do I make soupies from chicken (homemade)? But I dont know if I will add the hearts, liver and eggshell because they will be getting organ and bone in the commercial raw. My start goal is to be feeding commercial raw 5 meals a week (weekday mornings) and other meats provided by me the other meals. I just dont know how to go about introducing my own meats. I think as an end goal I will only be feeding commercial a couple times a week (for the variety of meat) This is assuming all my fuzzbutts will take to eating bones. I am hopeful. My babies have been switched foods a couple times with very little fuss! (they also have tried some soft canned cat foods lately under the advice of a vet... they tried blue wilderness duck, and turkey and chicken... and the evo chicken 95% and evo beef 95% and ate all of those soft foods!) I hope they will take to raw with the enthusiasm of getting their soft food!
Thanks.. I hope this makes sense!
