Hi guys. Im getting a cat soon. Where I live theres no quality food of dry or wet. So im thinking to feed him dry in the morning and then raw meat for dinner to create a balance. Im gonna feed him dry so he can get taurine.

Feed canned instead of dry.
You could feed all raw. Heart has taurine. You also need to feed bone, liver and one other excreting organ. You need to feed about 80% muscle meat, 10% bone, 5% liver and 5% other excreting organs. Even if half of the cats diet is raw, you need to balance it out.

You can buy taurine as a supplement and add it to the raw.

Taurine is found in raw meat like beef and chicken. They ADD taurine in dry food - as long as the meat is fresh and is only beef, chicken, etc. - NO fish then you're ok with the diet.

Raw meat can make your cat very sick. Try homemade cat food recipes just please don't feed the poor little kitty raw meat.

Yes, that is a good diet. If you want, you can feed all raw and still have a good balanced diet (just make sure you at stuff like liver). But adding some dry it's a good idea, since it helps clean their teeth.

All raw meat has taurine - it's added to cat food as the cooking process destroys taurine. Your diet plan is a good one, other than the dry food. Feed canned instead. Dry foods are now linked to such feline disorders as constipation, diabetes, obesity, urinary tract disorders, and kidney disease. Besides that a cat fed dry becomes very addicted to it, and is unlikely to want to eat the raw meat you are planning on feeding. Start with all canned, and then gradually introduce the raw to him.

There is a HUGE difference between feeding an animal a properly prepared raw diet, and feeding an animal diseased raw meat.

If you want to feed an animal raw find a pet food manufacturer who offered a raw product. They took the time to ensure that the meat remained the proper temperature throughout the handling process. They also ensured that their product avoided any contamination issues.

Raw meat sold In the grocery store was not manufactured under those conditions. Because it is generally assumed that the consumer will cook the meat to the proper temperature, the manufacturing process for meat marketed towards humans doesn't need that kind of special care since any issues the meat would otherwise be cooked out.

Since you said there is no quality pet food around, I'm assuming there is no store around that will sell special manufactured raw pet food and you were planning the latter of the two. DON'T. If you are going to feed your cat grocery store meat THEN COOK IT.

If you really insist on feeding raw, and cannot access manufactured raw pet food, then raise you own animals, and then kill the animals yourself. After the animal is dead make sure your cat eats the entire animal before the 2 hour mark. If the cat does't then you need to either refrigerate the meat or freeze it. Refrigerated meat should not be left in the fridge for more than a week. When you remove the meat from the fridge you must ensure it is not out for more than 2 hours. This includes the initial time spent out of the fridge when the animal was initially killed.

While cats do still have many digestive enzymes for raw meat, they lost the vast majority of them from the domestication process. (Same with dogs) That's why it's so important to monitor temperature and decomposition rates for any raw food fed to pets.

But to better answer your question, I do think it's a good idea to supplement crapy food with properly prepared meat if you don't have access to good quality pet food.
