Cat Birthday Cake

The whole cake is for presentation, not one serving. Offer only a small amount at a time.

Ingredients

• 100 g / 3.5 oz raw boneless, skinless chicken breast
• 5–8 small blueberries
• 1 fully cooked quail egg
• Optional: a small amount of plain, unseasoned chicken floss
• Optional: a very small amount of plain lactose-free yogurt, only for cats that tolerate it

How to make a cat birthday cake

1. Trim and finely mince the raw chicken until soft and slightly sticky.
2. Mash blueberries thoroughly and mix them evenly into the chicken.
3. Only if needed, add a little plain water. The mixture should be soft and hold together without releasing liquid.
4. Press firmly into a small heatproof ramekin or silicone mould; smooth the top.
5. Steam over medium-high heat for 15–20 minutes. The centre must reach 74°C / 165°F. Cool slightly.
6. Boil the quail egg until fully cooked, cool, peel, and halve it.
7. Unmould the cooled cake. Optionally add a very thin yogurt layer, plain chicken floss, and half an egg.

Serving, storage & safety

• Offer a small amount at a time; new ingredients should be introduced gradually.
• Refrigerate in a sealed container and use within 24 hours. Store components separately when possible.
• Do not use raw chicken or raw egg. Use only plain, unseasoned ingredients.
• If a new ingredient causes a concerning reaction, stop feeding and contact a veterinarian if it persists.

This is an occasional treat for healthy adult cats only. It does not replace complete cat food or individualized veterinary advice. Any yogurt must be plain, unsweetened, and lactose-free.
