| Natures Menu - Why Choose RAW? |
Where did raw feeding originate?
Dogs, cats and other animals have eaten raw, uncooked food since the dawn of evolution. Some eat a raw plant based diet others eat a raw meat based diet, others eat a little of both. Cats began living alongside humans due to their practical ability to catch rodents. Cats are nature's original hunter and true carnivores. They have evolved to function on a catch, kill and eat rather than a sustained grazing style diet that a herbivore would choose. Dogs began living alongside humans as scavengers and due to their practical ability to clear food rubbish and to offer certain scent work, hunting work and companionship abilities. Dog's have evolved with humans on a diet of predominantly raw meats and meaty bones of the prey they hunted, plus our leftovers of cooked vegetables, certain fruits, certain herbs and certain soluble grains such as the more ancient grains of oats or wholegrain rice.
Who might the raw diet be the most suitable for?
Today many pet owners are looking for healthier, freshly prepared diets for their pets. Just as they now look more closely at their own diet and food choices. They are interested and open to learn more about natural diets that can nourish their pets and help with common health concerns, general well-being and perhaps be more palatable to their pet. Pet owners are actually asking about natural diets and questioning the labelling and terms used on packaging. They are becoming aware of other ways of feeding such as Raw Feeding. Curiosity about the Raw Feeding choice is continually growing as consumers become more aware and informed about their pets food. Pet stores now need to provide a reputable, experienced raw food brand presence in store to make the most of this fast growing sector within the pet food industry.
Natures Menu receive many feedback comments every day informing them of the various experiences of feeding their foods. Below are some of the commonly reported benefits they are told. They are also, especially for the raw diet itself, the same reported benefits that have been consistently noted and talked about for the last 30 years Natures Menu have been supplying the pet foods.
Reports of:
* Fresher breath, cleaner whiter teeth
* More stable energy - less hyperactivity
* Improved internal organ function reported improvements in conditions such as pancreatitis or kidney issues
* Easier to digest, sensitive stomachs improve
* Reduction of allergies and intolerances
* Increase in appetite - even in cats!
* Clears up anal gland issues
* Less flatulence
* Conditions such as diabetes and epilepsy reportedly needing less medication
* Inflammatory issues such as skin conditions or joint inflammation reduce
* Older pets have more energy
* Stools are harder, smell less and much easier to pick up
* Fussy Pets seem to really take to the real meat products and are often the only food a Fussy Pet will eat
Customers whose dogs or cats suffer from any of the health issues mentioned above may benefit from switching their pet over to a raw diet. Many pets also show these improvements by switching onto Natures Menu steam cooked pouches, but for most the real difference comes from switching to the raw foods. Natures Menu recognise that they cannot claim that their foods can be used to treat, prevent or cure any disease however with these commonly reported benefits being so remarkable they have decided to set up a raw food research team. The aim of this being to try to establish the science underlying these benefits and what it is about the raw diet that appears to make such a difference to so many pets.
Why Natures Menu?
Natures Menu have over 33 years experience of creating raw pet foods. They were established in 1981 and still remain a family business to date. They have outstanding microbiological protocols, making the safety of the food paramount. They are the only brand able to ensure that the raw food stays frozen throughout all manufacturing processes and storage. They provide the only Fediaf (European Pet Food Industry) registered Complete and Balanced raw meals on the market. Wherever possible they use all British and mostly all Norfolk locally produced ingredients. They even use Free Range chicken in their adult complete and balanced range. The complete meals they create are fully balanced in protein and fat levels. The unique nuggets style raw meals are the easiest and most practical to offer a busy time savvy consumer.
Natures Menu's ambient range of tins and pouches are one of very few raw packed ranges. Natures Menu is the leading company in the UK dedicated to research and development of raw frozen foods and raw food diets for dogs and cats. Their raw food research team is the first of its kind in Europe, pioneering nutritional and scientific studies on raw diet and their benefits for dogs and cats. In addition we strive to understand and research the consumer market for you the retailer, to make sure you are kept up to date with the latest findings and knowledge within the raw pet food industry.
Q. How do you switch a cat onto the Natures Menu raw cat food?
A. The key point is to do this gradually. It is also much easier to transition cats from wet food to raw than it is from dry food to raw. Natures Menu have a dedicated Cat transition Guide for Cat owners. Very few cats can be simply moved onto this product with immediate success and do need care and transition.
Q. How do you switch a dog onto the Natures Menu raw foods?
A. Dogs most of the time can simply be switched straight over to the raw food, day to day or meal to meal. If the dog has a sensitive stomach day to day transition is important. Dogs are more sensitive the grain based foods and do not react in the same way to raw meats, unless they have a confirmed allergy to a meat type. Occasionally a dog will not take to the product immediately and will need a slower transition but usually the palatability is enough to appeal to them.
