1. The sun did not come out, 

   It was too wet to play

   So we stayed in the house 
   All that cold, damp, wet day.

   
   

   I have a thought, I said

   I know what we can do!

   Let's make some Pet Treats*

   And they'll all be for You!

   Ingredients:

   
   

   1 6 oz. can pink salmon or tuna, packed in water, no salt added, drained

   1 cup gluten-free oat flour

   1 large egg

   2 tablespoons homemade chicken bone broth, or 2 tablespoons olive oil

   1 heaping tablespoon dried catnip (can be omitted for dog treats)
   
   

   
   

   

   
   
   Directions:

   
   

   Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

   
   

   1. In a food processor, add the fish, flour, egg, broth or oil, and catnip.

   
   

   2. Pulse until it all comes together in a paste.

   
   

   3. Roll 1/2 teaspoon balls to place on a cookie sheet. Flatten with a fork.

   
   

   4. Bake cookies for about 12 - 15 minutes, until they are slightly browned and dry on top.

   
   

   5. Let cool. To serve: for cats, crumble treat into wet food and mix; for dogs, give as you would any treat.

   
   

   Store in airtight container in fridge for up to a week.
