Feed Birds Stale Cat Food

Don't throw away stale cat food, use it to feed the birds! Mix leftover wet cat food with birdseed and place in suet feeders or on a log or flat rock if you live in a rural area. Nothing edible goes to waste in the great outdoors.

be careful. Cat food also attracts raccons and opossums.

I lived in central VA for several years, a few miles from town. Animals everywhere, I loved it. In the winter, I couldn't really afford the bird seed, but didn't want them to go completely hungry. I would air dry bread ends and stale bread and put it in a blender with about a cup of dry cat food (my cats didn't seem to mind me sharing). I would pulverize it all to a coarse powder, which would sit on top of the snow. It was easy for the birds to find and eat, most were light enough to sit on top of the snow too.

by winter's end all the birds in my area were happy and roly-poly. Cute to watch them eat, too. I would ground it up every few days and kept it in a plastic container in the fridge; I would sprinkle about a cup outside each morning or two, whenever it had all been eaten. Surprisingly nothing else ever came to eat it, there were never any other footprints in the snow.
