Raw Aid for Dogs & Cats

Cats are the harder half of any supplement. A dog will swallow almost anything stirred through its dinner without noticing; a cat will find a single pellet in a bowl of mince, look at you, and eat around it. Anything sold for both species has to survive that, which is a stiffer test than it sounds and one nobody prints on the tub.

This is a supplement for animals already being fed raw, rather than a food. GWF describe it as a high specification formulation designed to provide 27 essential daily vitamins and minerals, with coconut meal, taurine, seaweed meal and omega 3 among what is in it, plus choline, which they connect to cognitive health. Taurine is the one cat owners tend to look for on a list like this. It is 100% grain free and a 100% non-GM, soya free formulation, made to Universal Feed Assurance Scheme standards and pressed into 2mm pellets.

• Made to UFAS standards as 2mm pellets

There is no feeding rate here at all. GWF publish the ingredient names and the claim, but nothing supplied to us states how much goes into a meal, how that changes with the animal's weight or species, or how long a 500G tub is meant to last — and on a balancer that is the single number the whole product hangs on. There is no analytical breakdown either, so there is no way to check what any of the 27 actually amount to. Go by the instruction printed on the tub in front of you, and if you are building a raw diet from scratch rather than topping up one that already works, that is a conversation for your vet or a properly qualified nutritionist.

Who it's for: raw feeders who would rather one tub covered the cat and the dog than buy two, and anyone who has put a raw diet together from meat and bone and knows the vitamin side is the part they have guessed at.
