Moose had adrenal surgery Thursday (My first experience with it and I
faired far worse than he did!  It was his right adrenal and the vet luckily
has cryosurgery equipment.) and the vet fed him this soup during recovery.
It's far different from any recipe I have seen.  The vet and his vet tech
said they are still working with it to make it better.  Apparently it
tastes better than what I have made, because Moose won't eat mine and he
wouldn't stop eating this stuff!  I would love any thoughts on it.
 
3 cups dry Iams Kitten food
1 Evening Primrose Oil capsule
1/3 cup Nutra Pet  powder
1 Shark Cartilage capsule
1 tab 100mg. Vitamin K
1 capsule dry vitamin E
1/4 tsp. pet tinic
1 tsp lecithin granules
1000mg. vitamin C
1 jar #2 banana baby food(large jar)
1/2 to 1 tsp Brewers Yeast with Garlic
 
Soak dry kitten food in about 4 cups water until soft.  Crush tablets into
powder and add all ingredients to soft kitten food(take capsules apart and
use only powder inside) Add pet tinic and banana baby food.  Add about 1-2
cups water to blender jar and about 2-3 cups food mixture and blend until
well blended and smooth.  Pour into freezer safe containers(I use glad ware
containers) One batch of soup should fill about 3-4 containers.  After
filling freeze all soup you can't use in about 48hrs.  (I feed 18 ferrets
and one container of soup will last me about a day and a half.  I feed
about 1-2 tsp.  of soup and then mix hot water to thin it to a soupy
consistency.  The ferrets love it and it is good for them.  It is really
good when they are recovering from sickness or surgery.
 
See what I mean?  Evening primrose oil, shark cartilage, vit.  K, and
lecithin?  What do you all think?
