Frozen cat treats

Published 02 Jun 2021 • Updated 17 Jul 2026

Our frozen cat treats are easy to make, and a tasty treat for your cat on a hot summer’s day.

Not only will your cat love them, they are also a great way to help keep them cool on a hot day. Give these to your cat as an occasional treat, alongside a well-balanced diet. These are not suitable for cats with special dietary requirements.

INGREDIENTS

100g boneless tinned salmon, drained

1 small carrot

25g rolled oats

(makes 9-12 servings)

METHOD

  1. Peel and cut the carrot into small pieces, then boil in a saucepan of water for a few minutes until soft.
  2. Place the oats in a food processor and blend them into a flour. Alternatively, you can use ready-made oat flour.
  3. Add the salmon and carrot to the food processor and mix well.
  4. Spoon the mixture into an ice cube tray or a silicone mould. Freeze until set, ideally overnight.
  5. Once frozen, you can treat your cat! The frozen treats can be kept in a freezer for 2-3 months.

We recommend giving the treat to your cat outside (in a shaded area if it is a very hot day), in their bowl or on a floor which you can easily clean, so it doesn’t melt all over your floor!
