Question #1606: raw meat

Cats are known to possess a natural tolerance for raw meat. However, for a domestic cat, a pet, or a familiar, it's best to always serve them the best possible food. In this case, it would be cooked first. Raw meat can cause bacterial infections, parasitic infections, nutritional imbalances because of a lack of vitamins, minerals, and taurine, for example, and so on.
 
Yes, your cat can eat raw meat, but you must remember that raw meat can contain Salmonella or E. coli, which are health risks. Be sure it comes from reliable sources.
