Quick Feline Meatfest! *
From Dr. Pitcairn’s Complete Guide to Natural Health for Dogs and Cats by Richard H. Pitcairn, D.V.M., Ph.D. and Susan Hubble Pitcairn
• 1 cup raw or cooked chicken or turkey with skin (or chuck, hamburger or heart)
• 1 ½ teaspoons bonemeal (or 600 milligrams calcium or 1/3 teaspoon eggshell powder)
Break up the poultry or meat only enough so you can mix in the bonemeal and so your cat can manage it.
YIELD 1 cup, with about 450 kilocalories.
*Leslie’s note: I use these dinners as a special treat for a cat’s good behavior. For example, used the litterbox that day while you were out or did not scratch the furniture all day. These meals are not a total replacement for a balanced diet. Please refer to Dr. Pitcairn’s book for ideas on a complete natural diet.
