A homemade treat for your cat.
Tuna Kitty Treats
- 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup nonfat powdered milk
1/2 can tuna, in oil or 1/2 cup cooked chicken, chopped into
small pieces*
1 tablespoon vegetable or cod liver oil
1 egg, beaten
1/4 cup water
- In large bowl, mash the tuna (or chicken).
Add the flour and powdered milk, mixing well. Stir in the water,
oil and egg, mixing well. Mixture will be sticky.
- Shape mixture into 1/2-inch sized balls.
Place on greased baking sheets. Press balls to flatten.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for
10 minutes. Remove treats from oven; let sit 5 minutes and then
turn treats over and bake another 10 minutes or until golden
brown. Cool completely on wire rack. Store in an air tight container
in refrigerator.
*Warning: Tuna can be dangerous to a cat
if eaten often. It contains an enzyme that breaks down
(destroys) vitamin B1 (Thiamine). This can be harmful to a cat
and can lead to a deficiency of B1 causing neurological problems
such as seizures and can eventually result in death.
