In this video Jericho & Thunder try Darwin’s Natural Pet Products Natural Selections Raw Cat Food.
All of the Darwin’s Natural Selections raw recipes are free from hormones, antibiotics, grains, by-products, and meal.
Darwin’s is only sold online, and it ships only to the United States. Each box is shipped with dry ice to keep the food frozen.
We purchased the introductory box which contained 10 pounds of raw food for $14.95. The box contained 5 packages that were 2 pounds each. We received 1 package of turkey, 2 packages of lamb, and 2 packages of chicken. Each package is divided into 4 individual pouches that hold 8 ounces of meat.
Darwin’s is similar to a monthly subscription box. After the purchase of the introductory 10 pound box, a monthly recurring order of 20 pounds is automatically set up that can be cancelled at any time. It can also be customized to include whichever flavors you prefer. The timing can be also be changed to receive them more or less frequently. The current prices for each 2 pound package are: $11.38 for turkey, $17.38 for lamb, and $9.98 for chicken. So, depending on the varieties and quantities that you order, an average 20 pound order could cost around $120 to $160.
Darwin’s also has a prescription line, including one for kidney support for Thunder.
Darwin’s also sells raw food for dogs.
The reason we tried Darwin’s is because we were looking for an alternative to Rad Cat, which went out of business. Darwin’s is very similar to Rad Cat. Neither contain vegetable or fruit fillers, but Darwin’s does contain the bones of the turkey and chicken necks, and Rad Cat was bone free. Rad Cat also contained better cuts of meat. However, Darwin’s is similar enough to be a good alternative to Rad Cat. Most importantly, both cats loved the turkey and chicken recipes of Darwin’s.
If you are interested in feeding your pet raw food, we recommend that you get the introductory box from Darwin’s and give it a try.

I feed my cats on an elevated/raised surface because it aids in their digestion and is more comfortable for them. I use Better Homes and Gardens 4.5-Cup Square Containers with the lids removed and the container flipped upside down. or
The bowls are Corelle Winter Frost White 10 oz. or

At the time this video was recorded I was unaware of the tremendous benefits of bones in a cat’s diet. Our previous raw food didn’t include the bones, but instead had added supplements to take the place of what bones do naturally. I appreciate that this food includes the bones.
My cats wouldn’t eat darwin..
RIP Rad Cat out of business
I love their raw food marketing while they put a disclaimer for best safety heat to 165F.
My cat ate some Darwin’s yesterday, about 1/3 of the serving. She then stopped eating and just sat there. I immediately knew something wasn’t right. Couple minutes later, she walked away and started vomitting. She didn’t touch food again until about noon, but wouldn’t even come close to Darwin’s, so I gave her Tiki Cat and he appetite returned and she’s fine. What could have cased her to vomit Darwin’s? I gave her raw beef pieces, raw salmon and shrimp, and chicken wing- and she never had a problem.
