A Path With Paws

This afternoon I whipped up a batch of my homemade cat food for our four kitties. I serve it raw so it is pretty easy to throw together and a lot of fun to make. It feels like making cookies, only these kids like meat cookies and are much happier eating it as raw cookie dough.

Here’s my recipe if you want to try it at home

• six lbs of meat or fish ground or chopped
• 1/4 lb liver and organ meat
• 8 eggs
• One 15 ounce can pureed pumpkin, sweet potato, or yam
• 6 teaspoons Nordic Naturals Pet Cod Liver Oil
• 6 teaspoons almond butter
• Taurine Powder 3g (if the meat is cooked or if using fish)
• 6 teaspoons Animal Essentials Natural Seaweed Calcium

Make sure the meat has been frozen for at least 48 hours at some point. I buy my meat frozen.

Raven knows I'm making food for him

Can we have some too?

Eight pounds of free range ground turkey

A dozen free range eggs

Yum! Sweet Potato

All set for the freezer and fridge. This will last our kitties about a week. I freeze half of it and refrigerator the other half.

The best part - licking the cookie bowl!

Mom, the girls are hogging the bowl!
