What is the best cat beverage?

Cats are known to be not so great drinkers! Cats, in general, get most of the liquid they need from food. and if they will need to drink, then water is what to go for since it is the most adequate beverage for cats, no surprise here!

Milk is also to be classified as food, not a beverage! It contains many nutritients, such as albumen or calcium, and it is specially good for kittens. However, cow milk has a different composition than those of the mother cat's milk., it is a known fact that many cats cannot tolerate it and therefore are exposed to diahrrea (some will even vaumit it). If this happens do not give them any type of milk anymore, and even if you water it, it is useless. As a rule to be known, milk is worthless as a beverage.

Conclusion: Water, and only water for cats.

Raw meat cat food diet Vs. Mixed cat food Recipes

This is once again a question that keeps coming over and over, whether it is better to stick to meat and meat by products or to make homemade cat food recipes with various available cat foods.
It is somewhat frustrating to know beforehand that no good answer is available, otherwise everyone would have used it.
It is for sure more "natural" to feed raw meat and meat byproducts/leftovers to your cat, since cats have managed thousands of years now to survive by only eating meat. But this doesn't mean that eating meat is healthier than taking diversified meals! nor that it is cheaper and practical!
As a matter of fact, no known cat food recipe has ever banned meat from its ingredients! some people are scared by the idea of preparing something for their cat to eat that is not called raw meat, this conception is very false, cat food recipes are not there to substitute meats but only to complement it, you can find for example in my cat recipes limited grain additions such as brown rice, or oils, or other nutritional additives that complement the cat diet and avoids your lovely cat to get ill.
If you want a quick and easy way to go, keep giving your cat meat and meat by-products as often as you can financially afford, then pick one recipe a day from my website and see how much your cat loves it, .. I am sure you will quickely find your own way out this way, and things will be even easier when your cat will develop stronger eating habits, then you will know exactly what cat food to give it.
Happy feeding.

FISHBALLS: a cat food recipe made with fish

What better can I offer you today than a cat food recipe made with fish? this tasty recipe will make your cat go crazy! especially if the cat is not used to eat fish very often!

As a matter of fact, fish is a very nutrient cat food, and the recipes here-presented, that are made with fish are also some of the richest in protein and vitamins, .. this comes partially from the cost effectiveness criteria that I use with my recipes, so if fish is less expensive than meat (in most countries) then you are able to put a better "meat to other crap" ratio with the cat recipes made with fish than with any other type of meals.

Now let's dive into the heart of the matter, I know you can't wait, so here is it:

Ingredients:

* 3 small carrots, cooked until soft
* 16 oz canned tuna in oil, drained
* 2 tsp brewer's yeast
* 2 oz cooked herring, skin removed
* 2 T whole grain bread crumbs or oatmeal
* 2-3 T grated cheese
* 1 egg, beaten
* 2 T tomato paste (not ketchup)
* Several pinches of chopped catnip
* 2 T tomato paste (not ketchup)

How to make it:

Heat the oven to 350C. Mash up the fish with the carrots, bread crumbs or oatmeal, catnip, cheese, egg, brewer's yeast, and tomato paste to an even paste.

Mold into small balls and put on a greased baking tray.

Bake for about 15 to 20 minutes, check it frequently, the fish balls should be golden brown and feel firm. Cool thoroughly.
