    This was one of the easier recipes for making cat food I have seen on the internet. The only thing I would do different is after cooking the turkey, I would put all the other incredients together in a bowl separately and mix them together thoroughly. Then I would pour them evenly onto the turkey and mix thoroughly. That way it is uniformly present in the turkey. I liked what the Vet had to say about carbs and vegetable in cat food. Some people would make cats into vegetarian. Low carbs is good for cats and human who are diabetic or pre diabetic. Diabetes is a dietary illness (Type 2).

I do give my cat dry cat food but he only gets 3/4 c - 1 c. dry food a day.....I put out 1/2 cup first thing in the morning and give him his 10 dental treats and he will eat the treats first while I take kids to school and then by 11:30-12:30 I give him 1/2 can ACANA 5 oz can cat food (I've been slowly introducing him to homemade cat food to get him to like it as he won't touch table food at all... go figure) and store the other half in the fridge and he is good all day........ we make sure to schedule in play time to give him exercise and he will graze on the dry cat food during the day... more like taking a snack in between playing or sleeping....... at around 5 pm I take the other half can of his wet food out to get to room temp and by 6:30 or so he gets the other half of that. Usually he still has at least half of the dry cat food I gave him in the morning in his other bowl so I don't add anymore for the day but if he is out of dry cat food in his bowl (usually when he is super active he will graze more) I will add only about 1/4 c. more for him. After he eats the last of his wet cat food and my kids are done showering my cat likes to have a play session with my son for an hour or so before bed. But as I said I've been slowly introducing homemade cat food to him as I heard it is best to slowly introduce new diets for success........ but even when no more canned cat food and he is on homemade wet cat food I'll keep to the schedule I have as a little bit of dry cat food a day isn't bad........ just watch the kind...... I buy ACANA dry cat food which has better ingredients than a lot of others at the stores .......

    then I added tuna& salmon & she ate them and bounced back
    I just made her hamburger & she ate it- I ordered pure meat treats,& OTC med for diabetic cats- & dental treats.
    Ty for the recipe-
    She's eating more& grooming - she had been depressed due to loosing her buddy suddenly 7 most ago& she's been very clingy& very picky Abt food

    I feed over 15 cats so please take us into consideration when you post a recipe. I am very interested in cooking for them. I do learn a lot from your videos. The cats are not all in my house, 7 are indoor and the rest live in my yard. Anyhow, right now I feed a mixture of waruva, primal nuggets, I mash a hard boiled egg sometimes, stella and chewy raw freeze dried (I buy a variety of raw freeze dried) and sometimes I boil chicken or fry porkchops, less often they also get makeral and tuna. So they get a large variety. Its very hard to cook 1 recipe for so many cats and have them eat twice a day. I have feline complete for a suppliment when I feed the cooked alone. Their health is most important to me. I love these guys.

      I want to pose the question to him about what filler would be the most beneficial and least damaging, as I too am feeding more cats that I signed up for. I have 2 of my own but now have 4 more who eat here.(and who I got fixed among many other strays) So while I like this recipe quite a bit, I need a filler to make it stretch. I may just have to feed half as much and continue with kibble. BTW, check out Purina One True Instinct for kibble. It's the best I've found for value/ingredients and all the cats I've fed like it. It's way better ingredients that those "top quality" brands. So surprising.

      @@Ikeaagain Taurine is considered an essential nutrient, but it can be obtained from a diet that contains animal-based proteins. If taurine levels are deficient it can cause damage to heart and impaired vision. Conditions are slow to develop. Turns out how you cook the ground turkey depends how much taurine would be lost. Taurine is available without a prescription as a supplement and supposedly no side effects if too much is given. Your vet can help you with dosage or just check the back of bags of cat food for their taurine content. Or if you emailed an online prescription place like Allivet you could ask them for exact dosage. Hope this helps

    I just want to say thank you for making this video. What made me trust this video is the fact that it is not over-produced/over-edited and it isn’t filled with any generic looking science animations. You are genuinely just trying to teach people how to make good food for their pets, especially if they don’t want to go on the drastic route of a raw food diet. My cat’s coat has gone from dull and brittle to having a sheen and she seems to be shedding less. At the same time, she has more energy in these last couple of weeks and it is very refreshing to see her moving about more.
    I even bought your multivitamin formula and mix it in with the food as you showed and I do believe it is absolutely helping her on the way to diabetic remission. I can’t find the sunflower oil in any local grocer so I’ve substituted olive oil for now, which reads as being safe for cats in similar doses and I’m also still transitioning them so it’s current;y mixing in with their Hill I/D wet food. But no complaints so far. I’ve been pulling back my cat’s kibble and using it as a treat, no more free feeding.
    Thank you for this!

    Started making this for my 2 cats Kiddo 12 yrs. old & Ivy 9 years old. I was worried they wouldn't like it after all of these years of feeding them store bought cat food. Ivy took to it immediately. At first Kiddo was like "what is this"? But once he started eating, he has been all in. Besides turkey I have used beef & have used chicken. Chicken seems to be their favorite. I also add a cup of water for added moisture. The one thing I noticed is they don't eat as much as they did the canned food. Maybe because it is much more dense than the canned. I don't know, just a guess. Anyways, thank you for sharing the recipe. Good to know my pals are eating healthy!

    I need to try this for my baby girl, Marla. She is 19 years old and she has kidney failure and other issues as well. Inflation is getting very high and she has no teeth so I can only feed her paté, but i can’t afford it anymore. I’m going to buy the vitamins and make this for her instead! I know she will love it so much. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. It feels like a blessing to have so many free resources available to help keep my angel healthy. I just want her to be okay!

    Canned pumpkin isn't available where I live, so I buy pumpkin, which is extremely common here, and steam it for hubbie's favorite cake and pie recipes. I've always scooped out the stringy innards for my dogs. Once we got a cat, she chases the dogs off the pumpkin, and has her feed first, lol. I guess my entire family loves pumpkin!

Ha, ha, my little rescued German Spitz, just cost me $4057.00 for two dental appointments, could have paid for a gold bridge for myself with that. Pets are members of the family, so it is my responsibiliy to take are of them. Just hope the little guy lives many more years to get some benefit from all the expense. Guess its pay back time, he had a gingival growth, and we are awaiting the biopsy results. Next week I have to have my biopsy. Fingers crossed on both!

I've decided I want to make his food, I have one more food option I'm trying for him but to be honest it seems like this will be the best option. He means a lot to me and after losing his sister to stomach cancer I don't want to see him unhealthy as I just can't see him go. I use to make her food too and he really enjoyed taking it from her so I'm sure he will like this.

    This is perfect.. I've been feeding my cat raw chicken only for some extra o and he's been so much better. I've been providing some urinary dry food and plenty of canned food with it but he's insane over that meat. I'm just going to replace the canned food and slowly remove the dry. They'd rather eat small animals anyway. Some of the few cats that actually eat what they kill though I'd rather them leave the birds alone. They live completely indoor with access to a completely fenced large catio run and they still catch many critters in there. Thanks Dr Jones. I have a bunch of ordering to do over on your site

    With the ground flax it actually has the perfect balance of Omegas (No need for the Krill oil) trhe issues of omegas is their balance of 3:6:9 which means it doesn't matter how much you have if you dont have the right ratio in humans that is and dont see the differ in that nutrient requirement for the the Ine's criiter kingdom...

    Dr. Jones you are so right about dry cat food being bad for cats. My cat had gotten overweight, her fur was matted and dull, she had dandruff and constantly was scratching herself, didn't want to play anymore. It was so difficult to get her away from dry food, but after a year I finally was able to get her to eat and actually like wet cat food. Her fur is now silky soft, no more dandruff, no scratching herself, her weight is now normal, and she wants to play again, she even has her daily zoomies again too! 😁 Sometime soon I'll try your recipe, I'm so glad you posted a video on how to make wet cat food, and thank you for all your very helpful info for all the fur babies!👍🙌

Not sure if the veg capsule option or the pure taurine powder option will be more suitable to be used for this recipe?
