Have you tried mixing some ground turkey or turkey thigh meat with the chicken? Dixie seems to like the thighs better than the breast.

Re: sigh. don't forget to keep checking for recall news.
I just ordered both of those books on Amazon.com it was exactly cheap but they are getting hard to find, as it is I won't get the pitcairn book until the first or second week of May and the other the end of April. I've been cooking for Fred and will gradually switch the others, right now I just want to get Fred eating enough, he's my CRF guy. My vet is still fighting me on the feeding tube, I'm going to weigh him each day until the 25 and then we'll see if he's gaining, maintaining or losing. So far he gained an oz from the 15th to the 16th. He doesn't look like it he is so bony. Wish me luck, my guys are having a hard time giving up their Fancy Feast, I'm so worried and want to get them off any processed food as soon as possible. I've got the texture stuff pretty well figured out, because their food has to have the same texture as their Fancy feast, my guys are very texture oriented. But the right vitamins and minerals they need is where I'm having problems, that's why I ordered the books, plus to get a little variety in their diet. -- Belinda happiness is being owned by cats ...

Re: sigh. don't forget to keep checking for recall news.
Mine average one such meal a day and two meals of commercial catfood. Wish turkey was as cheap yearround as it is around Thanksgiving. I could afford to increase the shredded deboned turkey and decrease the catfood. It seems like every day something new lands on the recall/contaminated list. Now that Natural Balance, which does not even contain wheat gluten, has been recalled, it feels like nothing is safe. Taylor Scobie Humphrey [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Oh, absolutely!

Pitcairn has a book out (available at Amazon.com) that has recipes as do several other people (same source). I've started doing a lot of cooking for Dixie Louise.
