Real Food for Cats

Description

Kitties deserve to dine in style, too! This collection of 50 simple, veterinarian-approved recipes will have your cat rubbing your ankles faster than you can say "can opener." Each easy-to-make meal is nutritionally balanced and emphasizes all-natural ingredients; a few are even designed to satisfy both the cats and the people in your household. Patti Delmonte considers any individual needs or dietary restrictions your furry friend might have, including diabetes and impaired kidney function. Keep your cat healthy and happy with delicious gourmet meals.

Patti Delmonte was inspired to create a feline cookbook by the antics of her six adopted cats. She designs ceramics and other commercial products featuring cats, dogs, and kids, and she has illustrated six children's books. She lives in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Anne Davis is an award-winning artist whose illustrations adorn the greeting cards produced by her company, Anne Made Cards. Davis's special relationship with animals inspires her art, and her commissioned animal portraits appear in many private collections.
