    Is there a way to make soft kitty treats? My two rescues are still working on their teeth. We have hard treats that the pound gave us, but they’re not enthusiastic about them. TIA. Jack

      • Betty says

        Great idea. I have two cats with gum issues. I have to keep treating my poor babies. Vet doesn’t know why. But I’m always reading about these treats and then being crunchy. My babies need very soft treats. Not too many out there. Thanks

  2. Fay says

    When you say up to two weeks is that in the fridge or just in a container on a shelf ? Also what flour did you use ? I have read it’s best to use whole wheat ?

    so far so good. sissy put her nose in the air at first, as always, hehehe, then she pounded down on the two I had in my hand. Her regular treat is not being made so the company can keep up with the Vet diet orders they have. WELL so I took the canned food as you said,(at $4 a can) and made it because of you THANK YOU THANK YOU. YUP I goofed and did not do the two parchment and learned my lesson hahah.
