Meow?

So my 15 year old kitty got sick with hyperthyroidism (and later died of complications from cancer.) In hindsight, I was able to keep her healthier and buy her another 6 months by making homemade food. I’m posting the recipes here.

Chicken Divan
1 large can of white meat chicken with juice
1/2 large bag of frozen chopped broccoli
1 Tbsp Benefiber
Steam broccoli.Place all ingredients in food processor. Blend until almost smooth consistency.

Tuna & Carrots (I know this sounds totally gross, but I swear, she liked it.)
1 large can of tuna in spring water
1/2 bag of frozen baby carrots
1 Tbsp Benefiber
Steam carrots.Place all ingredients in food processor. Blend until almost smooth consistency.

Storing and Serving
I use little 3 oz. “dixie” cups - fill them up and cover with tin foil. Keep two in refrigerator, freeze the rest. 2 servings per cup. As you empty one cup, pull another from freezer to refrigerator to thaw.

I didn’t follow this part completely - here’s what my vet said:
- 80:20 ratio of meat:vegetable
- Add one Tbsp of fish oil, flaxseed oil, or olive oil
- Calcium supplement - 500 mg tablet
- Vitamin/mineral supplement (such as 1 tablet Flintstones brand without iron) to include niacin
- Taurine supplement - 500 mg &/or clam juice
- Change tuna to some other kind of fish
