>>I would start with the book Dr. Pitcairn's Complete Guide to Natural Health for Dogs and Cats by Richard Pitcairn DVM and Susan Hubble Pitcairn. It is excellent and includes many different diets, including a couple of VERY simple ones you can make when you are pressed for time.

>>I only make the cats' food about once every two or three weeks. I prepare it, I put it in tupperware type containers, and I store it in the freezer. Then I just pull each one out the night before, dish it out in the AM for their morning meal, and pop it in the fridge, then use the rest for their evening meal. It really couldn't be easier! I use the recipe Fatty Feline Fare from Dr. Pitcairn's book.

>>GOOD LUCK! This is a great journey!!


Sounds good. I'll search at the book stores for the book by Dr. Pitcairn and order it if necessary. This sounds like something that I'd like to do for my cats who are still young enough to not have any health problems caused by unhealthy food.

It would be pretty simple if a person only has to prepare the meals 2 or 3 times a week and then freeze until serving time. This is something that I'm definitely going to check in to and hopefully get them on the right track for healthy eating! Thanks for the advice, it sounds like a wonderful journey. I'll let you know the results.
