How to make home made cat food for those who want to feed their cats a more natural diet.
This homemade cat food recipe is one my mom used for our colony of cats we had while I grew up. They ate a serving morning and evening.
Cat’s like other animals are not fussy about what they eat unless you make them so. While there are many website which will give you many options to make your own homemade cat food, I am going to give a simple easy recipe.
You can alternate the protein content on a weekly basis for a bit of variety.
The basics are that your cat needs protein, carbohydrates, calcium and some fibre.
Choose a kg’s of protein source for the week it can be turkey mince, chicken mince, fresh fish, or beef mince. You can use liver too but serve this choice only once or twice a week, so cook less and use it as a “treat” meal.
Your vegetable source for fibre can be any steamed and pureed vegetables that are in season.
Add a tablespoon per serving of wheat germ or oat bran.
Crush a calcium 300mg calcium tablet and divide it into three for one part for each serving.
Method
Steam your protein source, and then chop really fine.
Chop and steam your chosen veggies and puree.
Mix together and store in the fridge.
At meal times mix in the tablespoon of wheat germ or bran and the crushed calcium tablet and serve off chill.
