I have used food4-cats for a year now and many of my fellow breeders have used it for much longer without issue. All meat used in the preparation of this raw diet is of human grade and therefore very safe. Cats digestive systems are much stronger than ours which is why they can eat raw chicken etc without issue.
it is only in cats with a reduced immunity that I can see it being a problem, not just with a bit of diarrhoea.
I have weaned 4 litters of babies onto raw food without issue whatsoever and would be the first one to stop if I thought I was putting any of my kittens or cats at risk.
There is a huge amount of bacteria present in a bag of dry food that has been opened several days and most people wouldn't even think about that!
Just wanted to add that dry food would only cause the stools to be stiffer if the cat didn't have sufficient water intake and was therefore becoming dehydrated. A dry diet is not a natural diet for a carnivore, which the cat is. If you choose not to feed raw then you should feed the very best quality wet food that you can.
