ground meat, bran, oatmeal, and oil, adding the cooking water from the meat as
necessary to make a thick dough. Avoid using any more liquid than needed to make a

pat of butter
1 cup water

64. SPECIAL DINNER
(good for cats with diabetes or kidney problems)
1 egg
1 tablespoon minced, cooked green beans
1 teaspoon shredded carrot (if you substitute other vegetables, avoid the ones with a
lot of natural sugars)
2 tablespoons baked chicken breast (no skin) minced
1/3 cup cooked brown rice (unrefined; wild rice is good)
1 tablespoon olive oil (good for preventing hair balls and constipation - common to
diabetics)
Mix all of the ingredients thoroughly with a wooden spoon or in a blender/food
processor. It's important to get the rice mixed in well so that it can't be picked out.
(Diabetics need fiber and cats with kidney failure problems need to limit their protein
intake so this serves two purposes.)
Cook in a small Pyrex skillet over low heat, stirring and "chopping" constantly, until the
egg is at least soft-set but done. Refrigerate in air-tight containers, such as
Tupperware, Rubbermaid, or Zip-Lock baggies. Use within 36 hours (refrigerated).

simultaneously in boiling water in the bag.

feline friend won't be finicky about.
67. TUNA POPS
Drain liquid from tuna packed in spring water. Freeze liquid in small ice cube trays
(cocktail ice cube trays work nicely, as well as little square pill boxes available at most
drug stores - only fill these half full).

placing in it an airtight container and covering with filtered water overnight for a second
batch of tuna-pop water.

Ingredients
3 cups raw or lightly cooked ground meat (beef, chicken, turkey, or lamb)
1 cup raw or slightly cooked organ meat (kidney, liver, heart, lung)
1 raw turkey neck, ground or finely chopped (be sure not to cook)
1 cup well-cooked grain (oats, rice, barley or cornmeal)
½ cup well cooked vegetable (broccoli, zucchini, carrots, squash or green beans)
1 raw egg
1 teaspoon olive oil or flax seed oil
Directions
Mix all ingredients together, and then divide into individual portions.
The less you cook the ingredients, the more nutrional it will be for you cat. If you freeze
the individual portions, they will keep for several weeks and you can defrost one a day.
When thawing, try not to use the microwave or another cooking method, since this will
reduce nutrient levels. Instead, let food thaw overnight in the refrigerator. To warm it,
place the food in a plastic bags with zipper closure, then immerse the bag into hot (not
boiling) water for 10 minutes.
The amount of food prepared with this recipe should last for about 5 days for a adult
cat of normal size. Your cat may eat more or less at each meal; use common sense to
decide on severing size. Because this mixture is slightly lower in calories than dry cat
food, you will need to serve slightly more of it in comparison
