    I've found a great way to make homemade kitty treats that are diabetic friendly (actually friendly for all kitties), very cost effective, and my cats love them! Plus, there's nothing extra in them, like preservatives. You could probably use beef as well (I haven't tried that yet).

    Ingredients:
    •Chicken Breast Fillets

    Instructions:
    1.Preheat oven to 200° F
    2.Lightly grease a baking sheet or use parchment paper.
    3.Rinse off chicken breast and remove any fat.
    4.Slice the chicken with the grain. This will help make the jerky even chewier. The slices should be very thin, about 1/8" to 1/4" thickness.
    5.Place the strips on the baking sheet.
    6.Bake for approximately 2 hours (see note below).
    7.Remove from oven and cool on a wire rack until completely cool.
    8.Cut strips into bite sized pieces.

    Storing: These homemade treats may not last long enough to be stored because they are so good. But, just in case they do, store them in the refrigerator for 3 weeks. Freeze any remainder for up to 6 months.
