Healthy Food Toppers for Your Furbaby You Can Create with a Food Processor

Does your furbaby often just “sniff and go” when you put kibbles in their bowl? That’s their way of saying, “I’m tired of kibbles.” If feeding them feels like a chore than a treat, it’s time to rethink their food routine.

Adding nutritious toppers to your pet's regular meals can make mealtime more exciting and provide them with extra nutrients. With that said, here are some easy, pet-safe recipes you can make at home using a food processor.

These toppers use fresh ingredients and can be adjusted to suit your pet’s preferences and dietary needs, with the help of Condura Food Processor.
