Homemade Cat Treats

Natural Cat Treats For Your
Organic Pet Treat Needs

Making homemade cat treats or homemade people treats do you think there a difference?

When you think about it, many of us treat our pets the same way we treat our children.

Right?…We make sure they get the proper health care, we give them a nice house to live in, we buy them toys to play with, and we try to feed them a nutritious diet.

Yet... what about the snacks and treats they eat?

Feeding our kitties homemade cat treats are fun, easy and inexpensive to make.

If you're a parent, we're sure you'd rather have your children eat snacks like fruit instead of potato chips…In other words,… you want your kids to eat healthy treats, not junk food.

Well, if that is so you are probably feeling the same way about your cat.

Commercial treats are convenient and your cat probably loves them, but she'll be better off if you give her healthy, homemade cat treats instead of the feline equivalent of junk food.

Making your own feline yummies might be a little more work than buying commercial treats, but you also get some…

Significant Advantages

This first recipe for natural cat treats sounds good enough to tempt any human, much less any cat…

Cheese Treats au Naturel (makes about two dozen)

You'll need these ingredients (remember, making them organic pet treats if possible)

• ¾ cup shredded or grated cheddar cheese
• ¾ cup whole wheat flour
• ¼ cup sour cream or yogurt (plain)
• ¼ cup cornmeal
• 5 tbsp. grated parmesan cheese

While your oven is preheating to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, combine all the ingredients into dough (add a touch of water if needed). Knead the dough into a ball and then roll it out to ¼ inch. Cut into one-inch pieces and bake for 25 minutes on a greased cookie sheet.

Chicken Cookies (makes about 18)

• 1 cup whole wheat flour
