Answer 3

make it with raw liver instead of blood pudding. isn't blood pudding cooked already? better to use raw blood and beef liver is almost nothing but blood. I know cuz i ground some up for my kitties and it was a gorey blood bath. but they loved it. you will probably have to make your own recipe. don't add salt, cuz i think blood is pretty salty. or if you add something salty, make it an acid like lemon juice or vinegar. i dunno why, just sounds good. hmmm, but cats are made to eat raw things and we humans not so much. maybe klingons can eat raw meat? hmmm
