🧊 Safety & Storage
Store in airtight glass or BPA-free containers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Freeze individual portions in silicone molds for up to 3 months.

⚠️ Recipe Drift Warning
Do NOT substitute chicken liver with beef liver without adjusting quantities, as beef liver has different vitamin A and copper levels that can cause toxicity. Never replace salmon oil with flaxseed oil, as cats cannot efficiently convert plant-based omega-3s to EPA and DHA. Avoid using garlic, onion, or garlic powder as flavor enhancers, as these are toxic to cats. Do not omit the taurine supplement, as deficiency causes serious heart and eye problems in cats.
