Storage

  • Store these festive treats in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week, or freeze them for longer storage.

Tips for a Festive Treat:

  • Use cookie cutters in holiday shapes to add a fun, festive touch.
  • Make sure the cranberry puree is unsweetened—sugar can be harmful to cats.
  • Keep the turkey plain and unseasoned, as spices like garlic and onion are toxic to cats.
