Servings: 48 bite-sized treats
Ingredients
- 1 12oz can light tuna (in water or brine, drained)
- 1 ½ cups sweet potato baked and mashed
- 1 ½ cups old-fashioned oats
- ¼ cup fresh parsley chopped
- Silicone fish mold or any fun shape you prefer
Instructions
- 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!
