I was thinking about some raw fish or something like that, he seems to really like salmon. Any suggestions or things to watch out for?

I haven’t served raw/fresh salmon yet, but his dry food is salmon and his favorite snacks are as well. His wet food is a mix of basically anything, but also sometimes salmon. So I don’t think he’s allergic.
Thanks for the heads up regarding the bones!
He wants to try basically anything I eat. Even when I scratch my skin in my face hes like “huh?! What you got there??” so it’s hard to tell what hes really craving.
Scritches delivered!
They make freeze dried raw salmon treats for dogs and cats. Mine go crazy for them!
saw this list of recipes
The beef and carrots amused me- my “time share” kitty- he’s an escape artist that used to get into my greenhouse and steal carrots. not that he was eating them- didn’t show up in his poo; what he was doing with them is a mystery.
A word of caution… cats probably won’t care if it’s super expensive “sushi grade” or whatever, and certainly not more than you would.
Thanks for that link! I might try to cook one of these meals.
Your time share kitty sounds like a very cute rascal!
Yup. What’s fun is when you offer him a carrot. He looks at it like… “wtf am I going to do with that?!”
Torties, amirite?
Sorry to go slightly off topic here, but do you have a male tortie?? Those are quite rare, because it requires 2 X chromosomes to produce the tortie coat.
I assumed he’s a tortie. He’s got that coloration. (Or I’m just an idiot. But he has black/brownish-tan.)
Didn’t know it was rare. Gonna have to ask his people about. (It’s probably something they knew… it he’s getup their in years so, they probably never mentioned it.)
Maybe you’re thinking tabby? Brown tabbies are often referred to as the “standard issue cat”, and are commonly found as both XX and XY cats. Torties are black/brown and orange, and their coloring is the result of having one X chromosome for black/brown, and a second one for orange.
My apologies, I just find their genetics so fascinating!
Definitely not. He’s got that brindle coat with black, light brown and tannish orange. (No white, though.)
My understanding currently is either he has XXY chromosomes, or is a chimera. I’m also fascinated by the genetics, so don’t apologize.
I thought he liked apples for a short while. I kept giving him small pieces and he at them. Then one day I decided to chop a whole 1/8 of an apple into small pieces and he barely ate any of that 😂 but yeah often he really seems disappointed when I offer him some of my food
