Can anyone give me a simple make-at-home cat food recipe?

Question

I read what goes into tinned cat food and ...well....not good!!! If you know of a simple recipe to get me started that would be a huge help!

Answer 1

Kitty Breakfast

1 Tbsp. nonfat dry milk
3 medium eggs
3 Tbsp. cottage cheese
2 Tbsp. grated veggies

Mix 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 and cut to bite-sized pieces to serve.


Almost-Spot's Stew

1 whole chicken, preferably "free range" or packaged with "no hormones or antibiotics" on the label
2 cups brown rice
6 stalks celery
8 carrots, scrubbed but not peeled
2 or 3 yellow squash
2 or 3 zucchini
1 small broccoli crown
handful of green beans

Wash chicken, then cover with water in a large stew pot. Cut vegetables into pieces and add to pot. Add rice. Cook until chicken almost falls off the bone and vegetables are tender. Completely debone the chicken. This is extremely important, as cooked chicken bones can splinter and cause serious intestinal damage. Pour the stew into a blender and blend or chop until mixture is coarse (about bite-sized). Freeze in meal-sized plastic bags.

Answer 2

Goodness! Did you not require a "simple" recipe?! I've had pussycats all my life (presently have 8! Shhh!) and find that by combining canned food with fresh pet mince you can actually raise the overall nutrition values. Then by adding some cooked rice or pasta, you are providing your cat with a well balanced, relatively inexpensive meal. Make your base (tinned) ingredient fish a couple of times a week. Then if you include dry food and vary the flavours, you should keep your moggie interested, happy & healthy... I hope this helps - it works for me and my little friends!

Answer 3

Check out this link.

In addition, just know that it doesn't have to be complicated. It can be as simple as buying meat and adding a pre-made supplement such as Instincts TC. The meat of course should be purchased from a reliable source, and if chicken, it should be either organic or hormone and antibiotic free. You can serve in chunks or ground, or a combo.

Answer 4

Don't eat Cats

Answer 5

Please see the link already given to you by runamok. Cat food must include nutrients like taurine, calcium, phosphorous etc. and should not look like human recipe. Also see the link below.
