80:10:10 for cats

80:10:10 minces are complementary feeds, most often marketed for dogs, but they can also be used successfully for cats. For many households — especially those with multiple pets — they offer a more affordable and practical way to feed a raw diet without compromising on quality.

Although labelled as dog food, a quick look into 80:10:10 feeding shows these minces are based on a prey-model approach, which is appropriate for both dogs and cats. They are not complete meals on their own and rely on protein rotation over time. For cats, adding a little extra muscle meat — hearts are a popular choice — can be beneficial, as they’re naturally rich in taurine and help bring the bone content down slightly, which many cats tolerate better.
