Well today i've spent about £60 on meat and about 9 hours making the cats their food, and guess what they wont eat it.

They liked the chicken thigh, turkey thigh, beef shin meat and duck leg meat i bought. They were sitting about wanting bits off it while i spent forever cutting it into bite size pieces. But when put together with the lamb heart chunks, and the chicken wing, kidney and liver mince they reject it.

So i've left it out and even microwaved it for 30 seconds to tempt them. If it's not eaten then i'll just have to rinse the mince part off so i'm left with the meat and heart and add Felini Complete. Why do my cats need to be such pains in the backside.

Tylah, they have had the raw heart, kidney and liver before right? So, you aren't introducing them to any new stuff at the moment. My hunch would be that it is the texture. Perhaps you would have been better off just mincing the bone.

Do your cats not crunch any bone? Otherwise you could have 2 boneless meals to one boney meal to get the balance right.

If they are still funny with the minced wings than you could also look at eggshells and gelatine while you get them used to crunching bones.

Tylah will eat meat, liver, kidney and heart in chunks. He loves the stuff, but he won't eat bones. Heinz will only eat heart and meat. He doesn't like offal nor will be eat bones. I can get him to eat the small amount of kidney required if it's bashed up and added to the meat chunks with his Felini Complete.

I'll have to see how the rest goes down. I'll try one of the beef ones tomorrow, i only added taurine and salmon oil to that batch, so maybe it's supplements they don't like.

The taurine is tasteless. Have they had salmon oil before?

Salmon oil yes, but only neat off the spoon. I also added brewers yeast and the seaweed.

This is what was added to the recipe they had today:

575g chicken thigh meat
150g lambs heart - previously only had cow heart
50g mixed chicken and lambs liver
50g lambs kidney
150g chicken wings
2 tbsp salmon oil
10 scoops taurine
approx 1g seaweed
approx 1g brewers yeast
2 drops vit e drops
small amount of water
