Healthy home-made vegetarian cat treats?

Question

Hi, I've been wanting to make some treats for my cats. I do feed them meat but I'd like the treats to be vegetarian (not necessarily vegan), very healthy for them, and of course, tasty!! Recipes with fewer ingredients would be best too.

Thanks in advance!!

Answer 1

catnip, you can buy the sead at a good garden shop or pet store. I have a bed of it in my back yard for my kitty. I've never made her kitty treats but she likes bits of Boca Sausage, and scrambled egg. She likes to eat flowers too. :-)

Answer 2

Catnip!  There are also "cat grass" packets where you grow grass for your cat to chew on.  My cat just goes NUTS when she even gets a whiff of catnip.  Go to a "green" pet supply shop--they'll have better quality.

My cat also likes a few human food items--she likes potatoes and tater tots and has been known to steal crackers.  I think she likes them for the salt, though.
