Halloween is coming up soon so this week why not try out a home made treat for your furry friend!
Cat Treats-Kittens Want Candy Too!
These quick and easy Halloween cat
treats are made with items found in most cupboards and even the finickiest
feline should enjoy these.
You
will need:
- Baking sheet
- 1 8-ounce can of tuna in oil (if packed in water, drain well but use the water to make up the 3/4 needed, and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil)
- 2 cups cornmeal
- 2/3 cup vegetable oil
- 3/4 cup water
- 2 cups flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- Orange food coloring
- Preheat oven to 350-degrees.
- Except for the food coloring, combine the rest of the ingredients into a large bowl and knead it lightly until it forms a thick dough. After the ingredients are incorporated, add a couple of drops of orange food coloring, and knead into the dough. If not dark enough, add a drop or two at a time. Too much orange coloring and the dough takes on an unattractive color (but the cat won't know anyways!)
- Roll out the dough on a large, floured surface to ¼-inch thickness. Using cookie cutters in the shape of Halloween figures, cut the dough into small shapes.
- Place the cut treats on a greased baking pan and bake for 25 to 30 minutes
- Cool the cat treats to room temperature and store them in an air tight container
