Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Is Dr. Marty Nature's Feast complete and balanced for all cat life stages?

Ans: Yes, this formula is AAFCO-approved, complete, and balanced for growth, reproduction, and adult maintenance. It meets all essential amino acid requirements, including taurine, for kittens and adult cats throughout life.

Q2: What makes freeze-dried raw cat food better than traditional kibble or canned food?

Ans: Freeze-drying preserves nutrients, enzymes, and natural amino acids without heat degradation. It retains raw nutrition's bioavailability and palatability while providing shelf-stability and convenience superior to kibble processing methods.

Q3: Can I feed this as the sole diet, or should I mix it with other foods?

Ans: This complete and balanced formula can be fed as a sole diet or mixed with kibble or canned food. Gradual transition over 7-10 days prevents digestive upset. Consult your vet regarding individual nutritional needs and preferences.

Q4: How should I prepare Dr. Marty Nature's Feast for my cat?

Ans: Serve dry directly from the bag for convenience or rehydrate with warm water, bone broth, or goat milk to 70-80% moisture. Rehydration improves palatability for picky eaters and increases hydration for cats with low water intake.

Q5: Does this food contain all the necessary taurine for my cat's heart and vision health?

Ans: Yes. This formula contains adequate taurine from beef, salmon, and poultry sources to meet AAFCO minimums (1 g/kg dry matter) for complete cardiac and vision health throughout all life stages.

Q6: Is freeze-dried cat food safe, or does it carry bacterial contamination risks like raw diets?

Ans: Freeze-drying is NOT sterilization; bacteria like Salmonella and Toxoplasma can survive dormant. Proper handling, like that of raw meat, is essential. Manufacturers using HPP (High-Pressure Pasteurization) eliminate these risks; verify with the manufacturer.

Q7: Will freeze-dried food cause constipation or digestive issues in my cat?

Ans: Improperly rehydrated freeze-dried food (inadequate water) can cause constipation. Always rehydrate to 70-80% moisture or ensure adequate water access. Senior cats are at higher risk; monitor bowel health closely.

Q8: How long does an opened bag of Dr. Marty Nature's Feast stay fresh?

Ans: Properly stored opened bags (sealed, cool, dry place away from sunlight) last 2-4 weeks. Store unopened bags at room temperature indefinitely. Check for spoilage signs: unusual odor, discoloration, or sticky texture.

Q9: Is this formula suitable for cats with sensitive stomachs or dietary allergies?

Ans: Yes, single-protein options and a limited ingredient profile suit many sensitive cats. Gradual transition and proper rehydration minimize upset. Consult your vet before feeding if your cat has diagnosed food sensitivities or allergies.
