Where can I get chicken fat?

If your cat is eating that picky it's time for a trip to the vet. Cat's
are not naturally picky eaters unless you make a point of giving them
too much variety.

For a small amount of fat, buy a whole fryer chicken, roast it, drain
out the drippings, let the fat settle to the top, scoop it off, put it
in the fridge until it's solid.

Your Pussy Katz are probably not up to the task.

But my cats, OTOH, have brought home full grown rabbits. And those
things can kick. Chickens have long necks and they're easy for cats
to get a hold of. And that's what they go for first.

One cat did bring home a half grown duck. But I doubt he could handle
a full grown duck - they're much stronger and sturdier than
domesticated chickens.

Cats are obligate carnivores. They should not be given rice except by
order of the vet. And under most circumstances if a vet says give a cat
rice the correct response is to find a better vet.

The carbs in the rice are bad for a cat. Cats with renal problems need
to be given food more appropriate to cat metabolism than the stuff
containing rice. The only grain cats should get is whatever grain
happens to be inside a mouse when the cat kills it.

You can also eat your garden pest and enjoy it too.

So you, your daughter, and your cat(s) are stranded on a deserted

cat. Then kill yourself so your cat could eat you, too.

You're whacko.

Could be. But at this point the goal is to get calories in her that are low
in phosphorus. Something she will willingly eat. And she loves rice! She
only eats about a teaspoon at a time so I am not worried.

There's usually clumps of fat on skinless boneless chicken breasts...
I usually remove the large bits and feed it to the birds but I'm sure
there is more than enough for one cat. Still I would cook it, cut off
some meat along with the fat and cook it through enough to be safe.
I'd definitely not feed raw chicken fat to a cat.

Well, *that's* good news because we eat the dark meat... white every
so often, but not enough to worry about. Chicken parts are so
reasonable these days, I rarely butcher a whole chicken anymore.

The EPA has been "cleaning it up" for the last 30 years. Until they

Are you kidding?! Used to be common enough in supermarkets here; now I
buy 5# bags from a butcher. They're cheap. And I can actually glean a
little meat from them if I feel like it.

I DIDN'T KNOW THAT!!!! :) When you were here, I could easily have
introduced you to the delights of raw oysters. I even hauled some to MO to
let Ariane have her first one. :) (If I'd known how much of a threat to the
world's oyster population she would become, I might have reconsidered)

Sure do wish you had mentioned that while you were here. :)

Okey dokey.


You gonna bitch at me if I tell you those are commonly referred to as
crumb *crusts*, not crumb doughs? (pulling on asbestos panties)

When you get to looking into the likes of graham cracker crusts, you'll
find that some are baked first, some are not. I do not know what the
requirement is for one over the other.

I had tried that but then got afraid because I didn't know if it was low in
phosphorus or not. Still not sure about the lamb and not sure I have seen
any lamb baby food. Mostly I see chicken, turkey and ham. I know that ham
is no go. She did eat the chicken and turkey. I will have to get more. I
ended up giving them to the food bank because I wasn't sure they would be
safe. I see now it is not the protein that is the problem but the
phosphorus and both of those are low in them. What I do is give her a bite
every now and then between meals. She especially loves treats and loves
being fed things from a spoon.

I got her as a baby. She was very underweight and the vet said she was too
little to have been taken from her mom. I fed her kitten milk replacer and
kitten food from a spoon. I think she remembers that. She has always loved
the spoon. So much so that my niece gave her a little green spoon.
