Based on the reviews for this book I purchased it thinking it would have healthy homemade recipes in it. I purchased it to start making food for my elderly cat who is in kidney failure. These are not healthy food recipes. Mac & cheese? Kitty pizza and lasagna? So many recipes w/ cheese, soy sauce, butter (8 Tbsp in one!), hydrogenated oils and so many other unhealthy ingredients. None of these are fit for a cat and certainly not one in kidney failure. I can't in good conscience recommend this book.
Onions and Garlic is toxic to cats.
Published by marque2 , 2 years ago
Just reading some of the reviews - it isn't clear if the reviewers want onions in the recipes but just to be clear onions and garlic and any other allium is highly toxic to cats even in small amounts.
Are we all rating the same book?

I bought a copy of this book and haven't seen any recipes that call for onions. Granted, I've only made about half the recipes so far, but I've seen nothing that will harm our cats. Two of the recipes I've made did call for garlic but the amount was so small that it wouldn't have any adverse effect. I've made the Tuna Cakes and the recipe did not call for onions. The fish chowder recipe makes 5 servings - no mention of onion, and only one clove of garlic was needed. I'm also pleased about the various safety tips throughout the book. I recommend this book to all.

I didn't see onions

I got a copy of this book, looked at the Tuna Cakes recipe and it did not list onions. Also in the back of the book with the human recipes it informs to leave onions out of the cat's meal. Not sure why there is a difference but just wanted to inform that I didn't find onions in the recipes. ????
Delicious!

great recipes for kitties. Even have recipes for kitties with special dietary needs. Still have to wait for my cat to test drive some of the recipes though.

Even if you don't feel compelled to cook for your feline friends, Anne Davis's illustrations are a joy to behold! She catches all the nuances of cat expressions, ranging from sly bliss to rank disdain.
