DIY Homemade Cat Food

Hi all..

I want to share a homemade cat food recipes which you can make it for your own lovely cat..

Cook food for your own cat will be more benefits which you will read at the end of my post.

It is a weekly routine for me to cook for my cats.

Every Sunday, early morning at 7.00 am I will start from home to the wet market in Taiping..buy some fish, carrot, and also dry jelly..

Once I have the ingredients above i can start to prepare it as below;

1.  Clean the fish as clean as possible

2.  Clean the carrot and cut it into small pieces.

3. Boil the fish  together with the carrot until fully cooked

4. Once cooked separate fish and carrot into different dish. Keep the boil water.
5. Then, separated the boiled fish into flesh and bones. Keep the fish bone.

6. Then blend the carrot and pour it into fish flesh. Smash it together as shown in photo. Some people prefer blend the fish flesh together with carrot (or spinach) but for me i more prefer to smash it for better cat taste.

               

7. Then, blend the fish bones together with the boiled water which keep earlier.

8. After blend it, filter the fish bones and blend water. Pour the blend water into the boiler pan. You can blend the fish bone for 3 times and filter it.

9. Cooked the filtered blend fish bones with the jelly powder. (I'm use half packet for 3 kilo fish). Cooked until the jelly powder mix well with water.

10. Once the mix well, pour the smashed fish flesh with carrot into the ingredients. Cook for 10 minutes.

 11. Pour into containers and lets it cool in the refrigerator before serve to your cats.

Ingredients;

I'm used;

• 3 kg fish (small)
• 1 medium size carrot
• 1/2 packet jelly powder

How to train your cat eat at their on bowl?

If you have more than one cat, you might see your cat eat at other cat bowl even you have prepared the food for them accordingly.

If this happened, it might caused the other cat frustrated and go away. So, we have to stop this kind of behavior.

I have this experienced when I start to adopt Acik my 2nd cat and Kiki my 3rd cat. My way  to train and make them discipline eat at their own bowl as follows;

•  Prepare 3 bowls if you have 3 cats for sure .. :p
• While they are eating at first you have to sit and wait to see they behavior.
• If they eat other cat bowl, pick him up and put him to his original place.
• If this happens again you have to repeat above action until they understand.
• Well, it works for me, now my 3 cats are very discipline eating in their own bowl
• Unless, one of them go away not finish the food some of them will finish it.

DIY Hammock For Cat

Happy Malaysia Day to all Malaysian…it is 16^th September today. Every year we will celebrate this day to remember the prosperous of what we have now in our country. I am blessed to be Malaysian and born in Islam.. Alhamdulillah..

I will share with you guys my new DIY project a " Cat Hammock". This hammock you can hang it or tie it inside the cat cage/underneath the table/underneath the chair/any. Depends or your creativity.

If I buy the hammock it will cost me minimum around RM25 (based on review at pet shop nearby). So, it is better to make one and made it by yourself.

For this project I only need;

• Sewing machine
• Thread
• Fabrics
• Basic sewing equipment for measurement, cutting and sewing process

Yes you can put a round hanger at the end of the rope. It will ease you to hang the hammock inside the cage. I’m not using the round hanger since my cat almost living indoor.

Lovely hammock made above, I like it as my cats love it. Especially Kiki, she the one who always used this. Sleeping and dreaming inside the hammock…Come on make one for your lovely cat. They will love you more…

Cat cage

I had bought a cage for my 2 cats. This cage was bought before I started to adopt Kiki. Anyway now I have 3 cats to take care. I bought the cage with RM315.00 price.

Cat cage properties;

• Dimension  (91x60x148)cm 
• Material: iron with surface treatment - (surface treatment to prevent cage become rusty)
• 2 tiers with 2 platform 
• With 4 wheels
• Cage cannot be fold. Have to screw/unscrew using Allen key
• 12 screws and 1 allen key provided
• 1 tray collector provided
• 2 door opening easy to open and close (see photo)
• Cage structure strong

Cage review:

Advantages:

• Material will not rusty and can be keep for a long time
• Cage is a strong build, while your cat is climbing up and down it will be more stiffer and convenient
• Surface treatment with a pattern your cage look expensive and neat
• Comfortable for 1 or two large cats / 3-4 kittens
• Buy a cage you can avoid from sending them to the cat hotel. You can keep an eye on them. Therefore, your holiday will be more calm without thinking about your cat condition.
• Save your pocket money no need to pay for cat hotel renting. Only one time you spend your money and you can use it for a long time.
• If your cat is an indoor cat. Sometimes you can put them into the cage outside of your house. Let them taste the breathe of fresh air, chirping of birds, meeting people outside of your house, meeting other cats or animal or etc. This can reduce their stress while staying too long inside the house. I like to do this in weekends and I can see their interest of different environment.
• If you unscrew the cage by pieces, all pieces can be put inside a Myvi car.

Disadvantages:

• Big cage might be expensive for certain people. But if you buy the right one it will be worth it
• The cage i bought can't be fold. Need to screw/unscrew using Allen key. Its a messy job. However, i choose this type because it's more stiffer compared to fold type
• If your Allen key missing it is trouble some.Please remember the Allen key size for the cage.
• Of course if you have one cage, you need to maintain the cage keep cleaning the cage to prevent unpleasant smell or discomfort to your cat.
• Need to find proper drinking & food container to your cat to prevent water and food mix with the cat sand.

large door opening you can easily insert and take out your cat

 2 large doors provided (ignore the top cage ;p)

I'm satisfied with my investment to this cage and my 2 adult cats look comfortable staying inside the cage.
With strong and non-rusty material build for this cage, cage look firm and long lasting use.

Overall rating : 4/5 stars

BuBur ChaCha

Today I would like to share my experienced in making my own first time made of "Bubur ChaCha".

Actually I'm not too good in cooking and my mum knew me well in this...Yes, it was bad for me as I am away from my mother house..and it was bad for me too as I'm craving for a food and don't know how to make it..Plus, there is no night market at that time to offer you the dish..and only Tom Yam food stalls are open..

Then, what else can you do? You have no choice and have to cook it by your own self . Unfortunately, I did not know exactly on how to make this Bubur ChaCha..but I have a brief idea..but is the brief idea was correct?..Then, I called my mum and ask for the steps on how to make Bubur ChaCha..She said "It really easy..I believe you can make it". Yes it's sound true with easy steps which explained by my mum..and lets try to make it!

The recipe : Bubur ChaCha

Ingredients

2 cups bubur chacha (broth chacha)

500 ml coconut milk

1 cup of sugar

2 pandan leaves

The steps:

1. Rinse bubur chacha (before boiled) through water

2. Boiled bubur chacha with filtered tap water until it tender

3. Heat the coconut milk over medium heat so that coconut oil is not broken

4. Toss the boiled bubur chacha which already tender and put it into the boiled coconut milk or "Santan"

5. Sugar and pandan leaves were also be put into the boiled Santan

6. I also put sagu into the boiled ingredients as to increase the thickness of the broth.

7. Kindly noted that Santan and sugar level are based on your taste..IF you like sweater and thickness taste of Santan you can add more if vice versa the quantity goes to the same
