CHEWY CAT TREATS FOR CATS
From: Joy Wilson @ www.yummly.com/
I need to be clear. My cat eats absolutely everything. If I roasted an eggplant, this kitten would be all over it. He sneaks onto the counter to steal waffles, red peppers, and scallions. I have to keep the avocados away from him . For this reason… it’s hard for me to say with full certainty that these are the cat treats for your cat. Is your cat a normal finicky cat? Yea… it’s hard to say how these might go down. You might consider the addition of such treats as catnip or extra wet cat food in the dough. Cats have a very protein-centric diet. These treats are just meant to be a small addition to their diet, and not meant to replace their normal diets in any way. Cool?
Makes about 50 small treats
Ingredients:
1 large egg
1 4-oz jar chicken and brown rice baby food (or something meaty which may include canned wet cat food)
1/4 cup parsley, coarsely chopped
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 tablespoons water
1 cup brown rice flour
1/2 cup cooked white (or brown) rice
Additional things you might add : 1 tablespoon of catnip or a hearty tablespoon of extra wet cat food.
Instructions:
Place a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together egg, baby food (or wet cat food), parsley, olive oil, and water.
Add brown rice flour and cooked rice.
Stir to incorporate.
The mixture will be thick but spreadable.
Spread mixture onto prepared baking sheet creating a rectangle that is about 1/3 of an inch thick.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes.
Remove from the oven.
Let rest until cool enough to handle, then slice soft dough into bite-sized pieces.
Return pieces to the oven to bake for another 8 minutes.
Remove from the oven.
Allow to cool completely.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
I store my treats in the fridge just to be safe.
