Frequently Asked Questions About Cat Food Recipes
Common questions about making healthy homemade cat food recipes and treats.
Are homemade cat food recipes safe for daily feeding?
Our cat food recipes are designed as supplements and meal toppers to enhance commercial cat food, not replace it entirely. For complete nutritional balance, always use high-quality commercial cat food like Optimeow as the base. Consult your veterinarian before making significant dietary changes.
How often can I give my cat homemade treats?
Homemade cat treats should only make up 10% of your cat's daily caloric intake. For most cats, this means 2-3 small treats per day. Always monitor your cat's weight and adjust portions accordingly.
What ingredients should I avoid in cat food recipes?
Never use onions, garlic, chocolate, grapes, raisins, alcohol, caffeine, or artificial sweeteners like xylitol in cat food recipes. These are toxic to cats. Always research ingredients before adding them to homemade cat food recipes.
Can I store homemade cat food recipes?
Fresh homemade cat food recipes should be refrigerated and used within 2-3 days. Frozen treats can last up to 3 months. Always check for spoilage before serving and serve at room temperature for best taste and safety.
