How to keep your cat from eating your food - By Brian Murrey Make some beef jerky, just a couple of strips, and bag it. Let the cat get it. It won't do it anymore. Secret Cat/Dog Jerkey Recipe 3-4 slices of lean beef strips Cayenne Pepper Louisiana Red Sauce (from New Iberia of course) Crushed Habanero Peppers (one will do) Crushed Black Pepper Take the pepper mixture and add about 2 tsp vinegar and 1/4 cup hot water. Let this stand for about 12 hours so it can combine talents. Drop in the beef strips and let it set for about an hour. Then while wearing rubber gloves (no kidding...the habanero oil can irritate your skin and I don't have to explain what happens if you scratch yourself or rub your eye with habanero on your hands...ouchie wah wah) take the meat out of the mix and place it on your dehydrator tray. Spoon a little of the mix onto each piece of meat. Let it dry. Then bag it and leave it out for the pesty pets. They'll only do it once, if they have any sense at all. BTW, I make this jerky for myself, sans habanero. Instead I add some pineapple juice, worchester sauce, and a dab of horseradish to the soaking sauce. It's GOOD. My theory on cats liking jerky is that most jerky has been soaked in worchestershire sauce, this contains anchovies. Need I say more? Oh yeah, after your loved pet attacks the jerky and retreats, have a bowl of COLD MILK (NOT WATER!!!) ready for him. --- QuickBBS 2.76a Ovr * Origin: ==SSBBS== (1:231/30)
