I’ve been searching form more up to date recipes that can realistically be made at home for cats. In the past the homemade recipes that included grains (photo above is of a common raw recipe I used to make for Winston and Marty. It is now commonly understood that grains are not particularly good for felines, but I still believe that recipe is much better than commercial food as it served my cats well for 17 years. Dr. Pitcairn’s book is still excellent, but I don’t have his revised edition. I am not sure if he still has grains in his recipes for felines.

Most homemade recipes for cats these days require that you grind whole chickens to get the right balance of bone, organ and muscle meat. Unfortunately I really can’t see myself doing that regularly. Fortunately I can purchase some very high quality raw food diets for cats in my neighborhood (Tolden Farms, Healthy Paws and Natures Variety but I’d still like to have a few homemade recipes in my pocket.

If anyone can recommend a good raw meat, grainless recipe that doesn’t involve grinding a whole chicken -please let me know!
