Avian influenza is spreading across the country, causing illness in pets. In Oregon, a house cat recently died after eating raw turkey pet food that tested positive for the virus. The fact that raw meat can harbor dangerous pathogens has raised significant concerns about the safety of raw diets, leading to recalls. If your pet shows symptoms such as loss of appetite, lethargy, or respiratory issues, contact your veterinarian immediately.
Canning is a highly effective method of preserving food safely and nutritiously. Cooking at low temperatures for an extended period kills harmful bacteria and viruses without compromising nutritional value.
