Reproduction

Francis M. Pottenger, Jr., MD, along with Alvin Ford, conducted a ten-year "landmark" study starting in 1932. The study was done under the strictest scientific standards. They took approximately nine hundred cats and split them into groups. Six hundred of the cats had complete medical histories. Medical observations were recorded on all of the cats. All the cats were kept outdoors in large pens. The groups had the same conditions except that one group was fed raw milk, raw meat and cod liver oil, while the other group had the same meat, but cooked, pasteurized milk, and the same cod liver oil. The cats fed with raw food (hereafter referred to as raw food cats) remained healthy throughout the generations. The cats fed with cooked food (hereafter referred to as cooked food cats) were unable to reproduce after the third generation. Therefore, there were no fourth generation cats fed on cooked food to continue the study. The raw food cats were resistant to infections, fleas and parasites; had no changes in skeletal tissue or fur; their mental states were friendly and predictable; and they had no trouble birthing or nursing.
