Homemade treats for cats
Ingredients
50g canned salmon, sardines or tuna in oil

Note – you will also need some additional flour for your fingers
and fork
Method
1. Puree the fish and the oil in a blender – remove any remaining bones
2. Add the egg, flour and catnip (if using) and mix all the ingredients
thoroughly into a sticky paste
3. Coat your fingers in some of the additional flour
4. Pick up approx. ¼ teaspoon of the mixture and roll into small balls
using your fingers
5. Place on a lined baking tray
6. Coat a fork in flour and press down lightly on the balls to flatten
