I am introducing some fresh food to our kitties diet, I wish to coin the term someone used, that they are kitty kibble addicted. ( IAMS ). I recently prepared Lamb & Rice for ourselves, We are lo-to-no sodium, and natural flavors in place of prepared spices. Basmati rice ( Steamed 2 cups with 1 tsp natural lo-sod butter ) some fresh steamed peas & diced carrots . The meat was simmered, then oven roasted till brown. So I took some meat, rice & veggies and diced it up, put a little kibble ( pulverized ) powder and sprinkled it over and set the plate down. Our Mama seemed to love it, the Squirt picked ( she loves peas & carrots ) at it and ate some. Goober, I didn't catch him because he tends to be a nighttime muncher. The plate wasn't wiped clean, and so far no stinky butts..( fingers crossed ). This was Saturday and then a little warmed up this afternoon. I am planning on some oven roasted chicken breast this week, and if the lamb was a good idea I hope to plan more "mutual" meals. I don't know about anyone else, but if I was these kitties, that darn can ( even IAMS ) just doesn't smell tasty. So any suggestions ? And what about a nice bit of baked fish ( boned of course ) ? BTW,,I already knew the Squirt loves peas, but she really surprised me when she snatched up the diced carrots.. :) Any recipes out there ?
 
The cat food would be healthier for them than what you have prepared. (Rice is a grain cats are carnivores) It has the right balance of protein carbs and fats that the cats would need at their life stage. (cat food will be different than kitten food) If you keep giving them rice and lamb like you have they can get malnourished and sick. Especially if they have been used to store bought food.

Cats and humans eat different food, that's why it doesn't smell right to you :-) But don't worry the cats like it just fine.
