In order to show how easy it can be to cook pet food at home, gourmet cat food brand MonPetit teamed up with the ABC Cooking Studio in Japan to create the Cooking School for My Cat and Me. In the classes, pet owners will be taught how to prepare four dishes that can be enjoyed by humans and cats alike. Meals that can be made at the unconventional cooking classes include tuna and tartar sauce, grilled salmon and spinach, which are served in different portions for people and their pets.
Those curious about this cat cuisine can check out the recipes that MonPetit has shared online—when looking at the recipes, it's worth noting that many of the wholesome ingredients can already be found in MonPetit's cat food.
