Why Choose Raw Food?

Raw feeding focuses on providing fresh, minimally processed animal-based nutrition.

Animal-Based Protein

Provides essential amino acids to support muscle maintenance and everyday vitality.

Natural Moisture

Fresh raw meals contain moisture that contributes to your pet's daily hydration.

Skin & Coat Support

Essential fats and nutrients help maintain healthy skin and a shiny coat.

Digestive Health

Highly digestible ingredients may support comfortable digestion and well-formed stools.

Essential Nutrients

Animal ingredients provide important nutrients that support normal body functions.

Natural Feeding

Real ingredients with no unnecessary fillers, artificial colours, or flavours.

Benefits vary by individual pet and depend on the nutritional adequacy of the recipe. Raw food also requires careful handling to reduce bacterial risks.

Why Is a Gradual Transition Important?

Switching your pet's diet too quickly may cause digestive discomfort, loose stools, or food refusal.

A gradual transition allows your pet to become familiar with the new taste, texture, and ingredients while giving you time to monitor their response.

Important: If your cat currently eats only dry food, we recommend introducing wet food for approximately 3–5 days before starting the raw transition.

Self Transition: Step-by-Step Guide

Begin with Pure Gene Chicken Raw Meals. Chicken is our recommended starting protein because it provides a consistent base while your pet becomes familiar with raw food.

The following example assumes your pet's total meal is 100 g. Replace part of the wet food with raw food at each stage, maintaining the same total meal quantity.

Phase 1: 7 g raw and 93 g wet food in a 100 g example meal

Phase 1

Stage 1 of 7

Example: 100 g total meal

Raw: 7 g

Wet: 93 g

How to follow the plan: Start with Phase 1 and gradually increase the raw portion once your pet is comfortably accepting the current mixture. Mix thoroughly, monitor appetite and stool quality, and do not rush to the next stage.

The transition can take longer than 14 days for some pets. That is completely fine.

Tips for a Successful Transition

  • Start with one protein.

    Chicken is the recommended first choice.

  • Mix thoroughly.

    Blend the raw food with familiar wet food to create a consistent texture.

  • Go at your pet's pace.

    Only advance once the current stage is accepted.

  • Keep meals fresh.

    Thaw in the refrigerator and follow proper food hygiene.

  • Watch your pet's response.

    Appetite, stools, and behaviour help you judge how the transition is progressing.

After Transition: Introducing New Proteins

Once your pet is comfortably eating Pure Gene Chicken Raw Meals, you can gradually introduce other proteins such as beef, lamb, duck, camel, or quail.

Storage & Safe Preparation

Store frozen raw meals immediately after delivery. Thaw the next day's portions overnight in the refrigerator, keep raw food separate from human food, and wash bowls, hands, and preparation surfaces thoroughly after handling.

Follow the storage period printed on the Pure Gene packaging. Do not leave raw meals sitting at room temperature, and discard uneaten portions promptly.
