Why Make Homemade Cat food?
Homemade Cat Food Recipe
Is a homemade cat food recipe the answer to our male cat who is very fond of tearing up small animals and eating them up, bones and all? This is my picky cat that can’t seem to gain any weight and always seems to be hungry. When he does eat, it’s usually only IAMS Dry Cat Food. His body seems to want something that he’s not getting from store bought cat foods. It dawned on me that he is craving what’s in the bones of those mice and birds that he’s always hunting and eating. Is a good homemade cat recipe better than one of those expensive, top rated foods like, Royal Canin?
Why not find a homemade cat recipe that includes the entire nutrition of those small animals he craves? It dawned on me that the reason he usually won’t eat what he begs for at our dinner table is that it’s too spicy for him. Cats are carnivore hunters and they don’t need to add garlic, black pepper and salt to their prey before eating them. Why not prepare my own homemade cat food using some common sense and natural ingredients?

How to make homemade cat food involves one main ingredient: One Whole Chicken.
The key to a successful homemade cat food recipe is the nutrients inside the bones; whether it’s beef or chicken. Cats don’t worry about cholesterol. They like meat, fat and bones. The best homemade cat food recipe is a plain, unsalted soup that has cooked on the stove several hours, extracting the nutrients from the meat and bones. The chicken also includes the innards which cats love. The only ingredients in this entire homemade cat food is a whole chicken, pot of water and a cup of fresh green beans and carrots (not too many vegetables) For the homemade cat food to be healthy, the chicken must simmer on the stove a good 6-8 hours (the longer the better).. For best results, cool the soup overnight and heat it up again for an hour the next day. This will cause that extremely nutritious gel to be extracted from the bones. The next step is to carefully pick out all of the bones and run the entire pot of soup through your food processor. The resulting homemade cat food mixture resembles thick, creamy gravy. A whole chicken homemade cat food recipe yields several days worth of food. You can store it in the freezer inside cupcake or muffin tins which make convenient sized meals for your cat.

I scooped out one of the frozen, homemade cat food muffin tins and placed it in his bowl, then thawed it in the microwave so it was room temperature. I placed it before my hungry, picky cat and he not only gobbled up the homemade cat food, but licked up every last drop of it from his plate. The next day he was nagging for more. I will keep you posted as to whether or not his health and weight problem can be improved with the homemade cat food.
