RAW DIET: EGGS
Back to Index

Raw yolks are fine. They are a great source of protein and nutrients for cats.

Raw whites are not good. In small amounts they are ok, but on a regular basis an enzyme in the white will bind with certain nutrients, and the cat can become deficient.

You can either soft boil the eggs, or float them in hot water for 5 minutes to de-activate the enzyme in the whites, or just not use whites at all.
