1 1/2 cups rolled oats 1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup flour 1/2 cup tuna oil, chicken broth or beef bouillon
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Mix all ingredients into a dough.
Dust hands with flour and form small, 1/2-inch-thick, round
"biscuits". Set on greased cookie sheet. Bake 30 minutes (or
until biscuits are slightly browned).
Cool 30 minutes before serving.
As a pet owner, no doubt you want to give your dog or cat the
best care possible. And caring for your pet means feeding him
the best diet you can.
Animals, because they are color blind, choose their foods by
smell. Most dogs like gamey flavors best, as well as liver, fat,
garlic, onions, horsemeat, lamb, beef, cheese and fish. Cats
enjoy chicken, liver, fish, turkey, lamb, and yeast, and prefer
fresh to aged flavors.
Remember that cats are fussy eaters and it is not wise to
continually feed them their favorite foods. Soon they will
refuse to eat anything else; it is your job to see your cat has
a balanced diet.
Animals do not need salt added to their diet as the natural salt
in the food is enough for them.
Dogs may eat any vegetable they want, but cats should not have
any starchy veggies, like peas and corn. Some dogs and cats even
enjoy fruits!
It's a good idea to always add a grain, such as Kibble, wheat
germ, cooked oatmeal or whole wheat bread to meat dinners. For
dogs use 75% carbohydrate foods (grains and vegetables) to 25%
meat; for cats use half carbohydrate foods to half meat.
You will find, once you begin making your own pet foods, that it
is really relatively simple and you will save some money as
well. remember that all pet foods should be served at room
temperature; don't serve food cold from the refrigerator nor hot
from the stove.
Incidentally, you should know that cats should be fed three
times a day, while an adult dog needs only one meal a day.
