Cat Food
All cats are born the boss and they know it. Strong and independent, yet playful and lovable, cats have fascinated humans throughout history. They are excellent pest control, great snuggle-buddies, little tricksters and humbling friends. Some have said that cats are the ultimate zen masters, focused on the here-and-now and never worrying about the future or the past. Treat your feline friend to a special dinner fit for royalty.
Unlike dogs, cats can not so easily live as vegetarians. While many of them will happily eat certain veggies, they are actually carnivores. Their stomachs can't break down plants very well. Without the protein and vitamins found in meat, they will get sick and possibly go blind. Keeping a vegetarian cat is theoretically possible with the proper vitamin supplements, but it's not recommended. This is why you won't find vegetarian meals for your cat here. We prefer to cater to the carnivore in your little jungle prowler.

Ingredients
3 cups raw or lightly cooked ground meat (beef, chicken, turkey, or lamb)
1 cup raw or slightly cooked organ meat (kidney, liver, heart, lung)
1 raw turkey neck, ground or finely chopped (be sure not to cook)
1 cup well-cooked grain (oats, rice, barley or cornmeal)
½ cup well cooked vegetable (broccoli, zucchini, carrots, squash or green beans)
1 raw egg
1 teaspoon olive oil or flax seed oil
Directions
• Mix all ingredients together, and then divide into individual portions.
• The less you cook the ingredients, the more nutritional it will be for you cat.
• If you freeze the individual portions, they will keep for several weeks and you can defrost one a day. When thawing, try not to use the microwave or another cooking method, since this will reduce nutrient levels. Instead, let food thaw overnight in the refrigerator. To warm it, place the food in a plastic bags with zipper closure, then immerse the bag into hot (not boiling) water for 10 minutes.
The amount of food prepared with this recipe should last for about 5 days for a adult cat of normal size. Your cat may eat more or less at each meal; use common sense to decide on serving size. Because this mixture is slightly lower in calories than dry cat food, you will need to serve slightly more of it in comparison.
