How to Make Homemade Cat Food Cookbooks

Rather than buy commercial cat food products, you can make your own cat food from scratch. You can also combine all of your cat food recipes together to create your own homemade cat food cookbook. Creating and publishing your own cat food cookbook at home does not have to be difficult, and it is a project that you can truly customize to suit your fancy.

Instructions

    • 1

      Gather or create your recipes. Each recipe should be unique, or have some unique feature so that your cookbook is not repetitive. Gather as many different recipes as you can, as you can always weed out the less important ones if you decide that you have too many later on.

    • 2

      Organize them into different groups. Consider separating them by primary ingredients; dry, wet or raw food; main courses, snacks and treats. This way, you can create different chapters for your cookbook so that readers can find what they are looking for more quickly and easily.

    • 3

      Write out each recipe in the way that it should appear in the cat food cookbook. You can write them out by hand on nice paper, or you can type them up on a computer. Choose a computer if you want to maintain specific formatting, or if you want your cookbook to be in electronic form. Make sure to do a spelling and grammar check and proofread everything before you finalize it.

      Decide how you want to distribute your cookbook. The finishing process is different for print books than for electronic format books. If you want to distribute your cookbook online, convert your document files into a PDF or similar format that can be downloaded or e-mailed. If you want to distribute your cookbook in print form, there is more to the process.

    • 5

      Print out each of your recipes. You can print each one on a separate page or print recipes back-to-back depending on your desired final product.

    • 6

      Bind your cat food cookbook. You can add a professional cover and a spiral binding through a commercial print shop, or bind the book with staples if you choose. There is a variety of different binding options when it comes to homemade books, so experiment until you find the one that best suits you.
