1/2 cup chopped sprouts
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh parsley

2 tablespoons vegetable broth

Blend carrot, sprouts, parsley and catnip in a medium-size bowl. Add broth and lightly toss.

Serve a small portion in your cat’s bowl and refrigerate the leftovers in an airtight container.

4 cups suet
1/4 cup millet
1 cup cracker or bread crumbs
1/2 cup sunflower seeds
1/4 cup dried fruit: raisins, currants or dates
1/4 cup peanuts or peanut butter

Melt the suet or solid fat in a large, heavy saucepan until it is liquid. Remove from heat and allow it to cool until slightly thickened.

Combine the remaining ingredients in a bowl, then pour the cooled suet over the mixture. Stir thoroughly.

While the mixture is warm and pliable, you can spread it onto tree trunks or tree limbs for easy feeding. You can pack it into the spaces in pine cones and hang the pine cones on a tree. Or you can spread it in a 1-inch deep baking pan and refrigerate overnight. When the suet is hardened, cut it into squares to fit your feeder.

This is to be used for baby birds that fall from the nest.

1 can Ken-L Ration dog food
1 hardboiled egg, mashed
2 tablespoons Hi-Protein baby cereal

Mix well. Form into rather large pellets (the size of a raisin). Offer to birds every half hour, feeding as much as they will take each time. Mixture may be refrigerated. Offer water from medicine dropper, but very little is needed and should be given carefully to avoid aspiration into lungs causing pneumonia. It is next to impossible to overfeed.

NOTE: It is illegal in most states to cage most wild baby birds, but this food may save them until they can be released.
