Cat Food Recipe (With Real Bone)

Name: Cat Food Recipe (With Real Bone)
Ingredients: NOTE: not recommend for cats with CKD (chronic kidney disease) - formerly known as CRF; 2 kg [4.4 pounds] raw muscle meat with bones (chicken thighs and drumsticks or, better, a whole carcass of rabbit or chicken amounting to 2 kg;; if you don't use a whole carcass, opt for dark meat like thighs and drumsticks from chicken or turkey and remove/don't use 20 to 25 percent of the bone;; if using whole rabbit, which has a higher bone-to-meat ratio than chicken, dilute the extra bone by adding another 20 to 25 percent of plain muscle meat and skin and fat from rabbit, chicken, or turkey); 400 grams [14 oz] raw heart (chicken heart if you can source it - it's best not to use use beef heart; if no heart is available, substitute with 4000 mg Taurine); 200 grams [7 oz] raw liver (chicken liver if you can source it - it's best to not use beef liver;; if you can't find appropriate liver, you can substitute 40,000 IU of Vitamin A and 1600 IU of Vitamin D--but try to use real liver rather than substitutes); NOTE: If you cannot find the heart or liver and decide to substitute with the Taurine/Vitamin A and D, then remember to REPLACE the missing amount of organ meat with the equivalent amount of muscle meat.; In other words, if you cannot find heart, you add another 400 grams of the meat/bones. If you can't find the liver, add another 200 grams of meat/bone.; 16 oz [2 cups] water; 4 raw egg yolks (use eggs from free-range, antibiotic-free chickens if you can)***; 4 capsules raw glandular supplement, such as, for example, multigland supplement by Immoplex.; 4000 mg salmon oil (see note at bottom of recipe*); 800 IU Vitamin E ("dry E" works well); 200 mg Vitamin B-50 complex (i.e., four capsules of B-50); 1.5 tsp. Lite salt (with iodine) - NOTE: If you’re using whole ground rabbit from a supplier, check with the supplier to see if the thyroid gland is included. If it is, skip the salt.; (optional: 4 tsp. psyllium husk powder (8 tsp. if using whole psyllium husks; see note at bottom of recipe**); NOTE: If you will not be using the food immediately and freezing for more than a week or two, toss in 4000 mg of additional Taurine to make up for what may get lost during storage.; It is also not a bad idea to sprinkle extra Taurine from a capsule on the food as you're serving it two or three times a week, just to be certain your cat is getting plenty of this critical amino acid.

INGREDIENTS

•

NOTE: not recommend for cats with CKD (chronic kidney disease) - formerly known as CRF

•

2 kg [4.4 pounds] raw muscle meat with bones (chicken thighs and drumsticks or, better, a whole carcass of rabbit or chicken amounting to 2 kg;

•

if you don't use a whole carcass, opt for dark meat like thighs and drumsticks from chicken or turkey and remove/don't use 20 to 25 percent of the bone;

•

if using whole rabbit, which has a higher bone-to-meat ratio than chicken, dilute the extra bone by adding another 20 to 25 percent of plain muscle meat and skin and fat from rabbit, chicken, or turkey)

•

400 grams [14 oz] raw heart (chicken heart if you can source it - it's best not to use use beef heart; if no heart is available, substitute with 4000 mg Taurine)

•

200 grams [7 oz] raw liver (chicken liver if you can source it - it's best to not use beef liver;

•

if you can't find appropriate liver, you can substitute 40,000 IU of Vitamin A and 1600 IU of Vitamin D--but try to use real liver rather than substitutes)

•

NOTE: If you cannot find the heart or liver and decide to substitute with the Taurine/Vitamin A and D, then remember to REPLACE the missing amount of organ meat with the equivalent amount of muscle meat.

•

In other words, if you cannot find heart, you add another 400 grams of the meat/bones. If you can't find the liver, add another 200 grams of meat/bone.

•

16 oz [2 cups] water

4 raw egg yolks (use eggs from free-range, antibiotic-free chickens if you can)***
