Homemade Salmon Cat Treats

Ingredients:

6-7 ounces of canned salmon, with the juice
1/2 cup cornmeal
1/4 cup non-fat dry milk
1 egg
1 tablespoon cooking oil
2 tablespoons water
1 cup flour (whole wheat flour or all-purpose)

How to make these tasty kitty cat treats for your feline friend:

Heat oven to 350 F.

Combine all ingredients except the flour and mix well.

Slowly add the flour, stirring well until dough forms. It is very heavy dough, so you may need to put on gloves and mix it by hand.

Place dough on a floured surface and knead it a few times.

Flatten dough and turn it over to coat with flour.

Roll out a little less than 1/4-inch thick.

With a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut into small kitty-bite-size pieces.

Cutting the dough crisscross works well and gives you small squares.

You can also roll each of those squares into a ball and press them with your finger to make flat round treats. (Children love to do this.)

Place on ungreased baking sheets and bake for 10-15 minutes.

Watch carefully as they can burn quickly.

If you don’t want to bake them all at once, the dough may be wrapped well and frozen.

Store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator.

Makes approximately 500 treats.
