"Raw to go" provides a collection of raw meats, they are not providing balanced complete diets.
The raw diet needs to be carefully balanced nutritionally, with an emphasis on good food hygiene, if the cats are going to be healthy. It is easy to get things wrong and for the cats to suffer consequences. Unless you are prepared to do some research into raw, and be quite obsessive about it and know a lot about and accept the risks, then a good quality dry diet supplemented with good quality wet cat food is best IMO.
Personally the risks posed by the bugs present in raw food, makes raw feeding a complete no-no for me. It is however possible to cook the raw diet, with no loss of nutrition and that would be my advice to anyone contemplating abandoning proprietary cat foods. (Obviously chunks of cooked bone can be bad for animals so that would need to be considered)
