Mouse-O-Meal

(my apologies to John S. Campbell, who invented Malt-O-Meal)

If you're having any issues starting your kitties on Raw Cat Food, here's some suggestions.

Make it warm.  As in 'mousie warm'.  After all, he'd be eating the mouse at body temperature.  Georgie simply doesn't catch his mice and then bring them to you to refrigerate and keep 'til he's ready to eat them.

Sorry.  Hope you weren't trying to eat a sandwich as you read this.

It's what we call Mouse-O-Meal.  Or Budgie Gourmet (thank you Mrs. Spring).  Peeled Canary.

It's a cat thing.

Never ever nuke it, er, microwave it.  It's quite simple, and it makes it the purrfect consistency to just spoon it into a baggie and set it in a bowl of hot(ish) water for about 5 minutes.  When it's ready, just snip a slit in the corner of the baggie and squeeze it out into the crystal bowl you were planning on serving it in.

What?  You don't serve it in a crystal bowl?  Perhaps you should rethink that. You probably have old wedding gifts that could be re-purposed for this.  At least they're finally getting some use.  I know, I know.  All those dinner parties you planned on having - but this is every day!  Make these things work for you.

Your cat's wondering what on earth was taking you so long.
