Homemade Cat Treats Recipe
Do you have a cat? A lot of people will tell you that cats are clean animals and this is true when you are talking about their physical hygiene. They take great care to groom and keep themselves clean. But when it comes to eating and using the litter box, I find their habits can be a little more messy. My cat can make huge messes but that doesn't stop us from spoiling her. She has a cozy bed on each level of house and numerous cat toys. But being a cat, her favorite thing to do is eat. She recently got treated to some homemade cat treats and boy was she pleased! I made them using a few ingredients that you probably already have at home.
You can make this homemade cat treat dough in a bowl, but it whips up quickly in a food processor. If the dough appears to be too sticky, simply add more flour a tablespoon at a time.
This dough gets very sticky when you are rolling it out, so be sure to have extra flour on hand for dusting.
I'm going to let you in on a little secret to making these homemade cat treats. Use a bottle cap as a cookie cutter! The size is just right for making small treats for kitty.
My cat can eat these this size but they are also easy to break up if your cat prefers a smaller treat.
They will puff up a little while baking.
I have a confession to make. I tried one. Yes, I ate a cat treat. When I looked at the ingredients there was nothing that I don't normally eat anyway, so I figured it was safe. They were pretty good. Nothing I would eat for a snack on a regular basis, but I can see what my cat digs them.
The only issue I had making these treats was that the process left my counters looking quite messy. There was flour and bits of dough everywhere.
Luckily, I had Bounty, the Quicker Picker Upper on hand to help with clean up. I just sprayed some granite cleaner on the counter and put my Bounty paper towels to work. Minions were made to work and these Minion print paper towels from Bounty make cleaning up more enjoyable.
They are also great at cleaning up other cat related messes. If you have a cat, I think you know the kind of cat mess I am talking about. If you don't have a cat, let's just say they are messy eaters and they don't always hit the mark when using the litter box. Since Bounty makes clean up a breeze I am able to forgive my cat faster and forget all about her little indiscretions.
This is my cat Charlotte. My husband and I adopted her before we had kids, so her life has changed quite a bit in the last 7 years. Today she spends her days getting petted roughly by little hands, being carried where she doesn't want to go, and woken up from naps. So if any cat deserves some treats, it's Charlotte.
These homemade cat treats hit the spot! I try not to give her more than a few a day because she is getting older and obesity is a concern.
They keep in a sealed container for a few weeks. The next time I make these, I am going to try adding a little dried catnip.
