To those of you making your own food where do you go to buy bonemeal?

I'm pretty sure you can find it at health food stores (I know the brand NOW makes bonemeal). I've also seen it at my local pet food store that carries frozen raw diets. You might just have to call around first to see who has the better price.

...remembering of course that if you (or any friends reading ) are feeding your animal bones (including poultry) you don't need to add bone meal to their diet as this would be an excess of calcium and phosporous.

No no mumx3 I am the one just starting to make food for her cat... I believe you were the one that suggested the bonemeal to me. (thanks by the way)
So far we've got hard boiled eggs, boneless skinless chicken breast, salmon oil and taurine. Bonemeal was the next ingredient I was hoping to add.

are you feeding liver? also how do you get your cats to eat stinkin hard boiled eggs. *sigh* mine wont touch them. one way i found to get my cats to eat the bone was to take a whole chicken and a sledge hammer, a trash bag and a cloth bag and just pound the snot out of it. once the bones are broken up a little smaller they just crunch right through them but still work their teeth and gums with the larger pieces of meat. i have found that if i pound a chicken when i get mad, i soon have enough to last a few weeks. anger management at its best!!! *coughs* ok so bone meal might be a good idea..... -ashley |

well I really only have one who is eating this, and I don't think i'm going to bother anymore, as he has taken well to Merrick canned food. He was crazy for the eggs, even without the chicken, I even caught him trying to fish them out of the hot water ! He had gone off his food completely when I switched dry so I had to find something that would get him eating again, the eggs did the trick, I was just making them for egg salad and had read here they were good for them so I tried it. Now I have to wrestle him for my eggs! He's doing really well on the Merricks so I guess it worked.

Actually wantd4rain I would rather feed bones and egg shells than bonemeal. Anything heat treated and from an unknown source goes to the bottom of my list for preferential foods. And your smashin'bonesangermanagement thing is just icing on the cake wanted4 rain
