I was thinking about some raw fish or something like that, he seems to really like salmon. Any suggestions or things to watch out for?

So… I would suggest steaming the fish unless you can get very fresh seafood. Alternatively, baking it on some parchment.
I’m not sure that raw fish is particularly dangerous on its own- but do check for bones and such. Especially the pin bones. Fish can be an allergen, but if you’ve served it before it should be fine.
I’d say go with whatever they beg for when you’re doing your thing in the kitchen.
Also give the birthday kitty some scritches for me!
I haven't served raw/fresh salmon yet, but his dry food is salmon and his favorite snacks are as well. His wet food is a mix of basically anything, but also sometimes salmon. So I don't think he's allergic.
Thanks for the heads up regarding the bones!
He wants to try basically anything I eat. Even when I scratch my skin in my face hes like "huh?! What you got there??" so it's hard to tell what hes really craving.
Scritches delivered!
They make freeze dried raw salmon treats for dogs and cats. Mine go crazy for them!
