Years ago, we used to make treats for our dogs all the time, but it never occurred to me to try making them for our cats. I don’t know about you, but our cats can be so darn picky! After some experimenting, I finally came up with the perfect homemade cat treats made from tuna! Apparently, they are delicious because all four of our sweet tabbies love them.
Tuna Cat Treats Ingredients:
- 1 5 oz can tuna (packed in water), drained
- 1 Egg
- 1 C. All-Purpose Flour
- 1 Tbsp. Olive Oil
- ½ Banana, mashed
- Parchment Paper

Ya he loves these cat treats. Also I taught him to sit and stand up.
My finicky cats wanted nothing to do with them, but they don’t like any treats. My coworker’s cat and dog loved them though. 🙂
Aw, I’m glad someone liked them at least!
