Make Your Own Cat Food

Wednesday, 15 August 2007

Looking for an alternative to store bought cat food?  Make your own cat food and know what really went into it.  These diets generally consist of some form of cooked meat or raw meat, ground bone, pureed vegetables, taurine supplements, and other multivitamin supplements. Although cats are naturally resistant to many of the bacteria that raw meats contain, meat can sometimes also contain parasites and other harmful organisms and for this reason raw meat is sometimes frozen for periods of time before being used.Some pet owners use human vitamin supplements, and others use vitamin supplements specifically engineered for cats. Veterinarians sometimes recommend including digestive enzyme supplements in a homemade diet. Some pet food manufacturers offer packaged versions of a raw food diet that closely resembles such homemade diets. These packaged versions are generally kept frozen, with individual portions being thawed in advance.   Cats Breakfast: Ingredients: 1 Tbsp. nonfat dry milk 3 medium eggs 3 Tbsp. cottage cheese 2 Tbsp. grated veggies  Mix ingredients together the milk powder with a small amount of water; add the eggs and beat well. Pour into a small non-stick frying pan and cook on medium low until done. Flip over and spread the cottage cheese and veggies over half the top. Fold like an omelet. Cool to room temperature and cut to bite-sized pieces to serve.
