Sure. For Tatiana, I give her a mixture of steam-cooked, minced:
chicken breast
veggies (broccoli, red bell peppers, and carrots)
old fashioned rolled oats (or brown rice, or mix of both)
non-fat yogurt
Roughly, I use equal portions of everything to come up with 1/3 cup. I like to microwave the mixture a little bit to bring it to room temperature (as the yogurt makes the mixture cold. I know that's a bit much, but what can I say, I love Tatiana.
) I feed Tatiana three times a day. I know that seems like a lot of food, but I think Tatiana needs that much. She's still very tiny (3 lbs), and has a waist, so she's not overweight. Also, Tatiana is very active.
Oh. I finely mince the food because Tatiana eats VERY quickly, and sometimes swallows her food whole. One time, she choked on a piece of chicken. Thank goodness, the chicken went down. I was scared to death because I thought she may have been in danger. Ever since then, I finely mince her food.
Hope this helps.
