Cats Meow Chicken Mix


Cat’s Meow Chicken Mix
February, 2005

Makes 1 cup / To reduce bacterial risk, always freeze meat for 72 hours prior to use and defrost in the refrigerator. Introduce new foods into your cat’s diet just a dot at a time, doubling the amount every second meal until you work up to a regular serving. It can take cats several weeks to adjust to a new food.

1/2 pound cooked chicken (thigh or breast meat), cut into
pea-size pieces
2 drops olive oil
1 organic egg yolk
1 teaspoon bone meal
1/2 teaspoon fish oil

Pet digestive enzymes (read label for dose)
1 tablespoon vegetable baby food, such as carrot, squash, or peas (no onion powder), optional

1. Mix together all ingredients until well blended. Feed an adult cat as much as it will eat in 20–30 minutes: about 1/2–3/4 cup for a small cat, 3/4–1 cup for a medium cat, and 1-1/4 – 2 cups for a large cat. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 4 days.
