Ingredients for Sweet Potato & Tuna Cat Treats

• ¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped
• Silicone fish mold (or any fun shape you prefer)

How to Make Sweet Potato and Tuna Cat Treats

Mix Tuna & Sweet Potato

In a large bowl, combine the drained tuna and mashed sweet potato. Use two forks to break up the tuna into smaller pieces while mashing it with the sweet potato.

Prepare Oats & Parsley

In a food processor, pulse the old-fashioned oats and fresh parsley until finely ground. This will make the mixture easier for your cat to eat.

Combine All Ingredients

Pour the oat and parsley mixture into the tuna and sweet potato bowl. Stir everything together until fully incorporated.

Mold the Treats

Spoon the mixture into your silicone fish mold (or another fun shape) to form little treats.

Freeze & Serve

Place the mold in the freezer for 2-3 hours, or until the treats are fully set. Once frozen, pop them out of the mold and serve them to your cat as a delicious treat!

How to Store Treats

Store frozen treats in an airtight freezer bag or container for up to a month.

Important Reminder:

Before adding any new ingredients or treats to your cat’s diet, always check with your veterinarian to ensure they’re safe for your pet. Some cats may have allergies or sensitivities to certain ingredients. Your vet can provide guidance on portion sizes and any dietary restrictions based on your cat’s individual needs.
