KITTY BISCUITS
1 pound liver, organs, or other meat
2 cups old-fashioned oatmeal
2 cups bran
1/4 cup cooking oil
Preheat oven to 250 degrees F.
Cover meat with cold water and bring to a
boil. Immediately lower heat and simmer for
30 minutes. Remove meat from water and
let cool; retain water.
When meat is completely cool, chop into
1-inch pieces and grind in food processor,
chop in a blender, or process through a
meat grinder until it is finely ground. Mix
ground meat, bran, oatmeal, and oil, adding
the cooking water from the meat as
necessary to make a thick dough. Avoid
using any more liquid than needed to make
a dough that is coarse and just wet enough
to work with. Shape the dough into
flattened balls or little bone shapes and
arrange on an oiled baking sheet. Bake for 3
hours. Then, turn off the heat and let the
biscuits cool in the oven to ensure they are
hard and crunchy.
Let the biscuits air dry for 24 hours and
store in an airtight container on the shelf for
up to 4 weeks.
NOTE: When making this recipe for cats,
shape the biscuits into tiny bits for easy
chewing.
HINT: A good idea for getting the meat for
this recipe is to save organs from chickens,
turkeys, etc. in a plastic bag in the freezer
until you have enough to make this yummy
treat.
