Quest Cat Food is a Prey model diet consisting of 95% meat, bone, and organ. We add a few super-foods to round off the diet and make it the purrrfect food for your feline. Steve’s forms the food into smaller bite-size nuggets that make it easier for cats to dive into a bowl of fresh food. Steve’s uses lean, low-fat muscle meat that provides high levels of zinc and copper--two nutrients that work together to support metabolism. Steve’s Real Food beef recipe is a freeze-dried raw cat food formulated to exceed the nutritional levels established by AAFCO Cat Food Nutrient Profiles for All Life Stages.

Consider our freeze-dried beef raw recipe for the following reasons:

• Palatability: Many cats find beef highly palatable, making it a convenient choice to entice picky eaters.

• High-Quality Protein: Grass-fed beef is a rich source of high-quality protein, which is essential for maintaining muscle mass, repairing tissues, and supporting overall growth and development in cats.
• Energy Source: The fats in beef provide a good energy source for active cats, helping them maintain their daily activity levels.

• Variety in Diet: Feeding your cat a variety of protein sources, including beef, can help prevent food sensitivities from developing due to repeated exposure to a single protein.

Ingredient Sourcing:

Steve’s beef comes from family ranchers in the heart of the Northwest. The cows graze freely in pastures and are given plenty of space to display natural behaviors. They are checked daily for signs of illness or discomfort and have access to an on-call veterinarian 24/7. The farm is USDA-verified, and shares our belief in an obligation to preserve the environment and treat the animals with the best care. Their goat milk comes from a family farm in Gaston, Oregon. Steve’s Real Food is committed to working with family farms that share our belief in sustainable farming free from added hormones, antibiotics, and pesticides.

How Much to Feed

Each four-legged friend will metabolize food differently based on their activity level, breed, age, etc. Use our  as a starting point for your pet, and adjust the feeding amount as necessary to help your pet achieve an ideal body weight.

Safe Handling Raw Pet Food

Treat raw pet food with the same care as handling raw meat for your consumption. Always wash your hands, pet bowls, and any surfaces that come into contact with the raw food.
