Switching Cats to Raw Diet?

I have been thinking about switching my cats to a raw diet for quite some time. Since I'm going to be getting a dog soon, I've decided there is no better time than now to really work towards switching them to a new diet. I do have a couple of questions though…first of all, if I am understanding the information I have read so far correctly cats have much more extensive nutritional needs than dogs…this slightly freaks me out as I'm afraid I won't supplement their raw diet correctly. So look online I found this pre-mix for raw foods it's called alnutrin, does anyone know anything about this? Do you think it is quality? You have to add raw meet and water that's it. It's fairly cheap $20 w/o shipping and says it makes 32 pounds of food.
Also, I can't find anything like this for dogs…is it because it isn't necessarily needed? Can anyone recommend a pre-mix of quality for raw diets for dogs?
Does anyone have any recipes for making a healthy dry kibble, as I would still like to free feed my cats throughout the day, or any other recommendations for switching my cats (and soon to be dog) to a raw diet?

This may be a question for the health section, but figured i start here. Anyone has this problem or and idea of why?

I have drank reg Coke for as long as i can remember. For a while now i have switch to drinking Diet Mountain Dew since my doc asked me to do stuff to lose some weight. I tried drinking Diet Coke and it gives me a headache. I am tired of drinking Diet Mountain Dew and decided to give Coke Zero a try and just like with Diet Coke, after a while (drinking it slowly over a few hours 24 oz bottle) i started to get a headache.

As far as i know the diet sodas use the same sugar (Diet MD, coke, coke zero, etc) or is that incorrect? I do not get headaches from drinking Diet MD, Diet Dr Pepper, or Diet Rootbeer. So my question is:

What is in Diet Coke/Code Zero that may cause me to get a headache and Diet MD, Diet Dr Pepper, or Diet Rootbeer does not cause me to have headaches or does this happen to anyone else?
