Most cats are lactose intolerant, and ice cream contains milk and cream, which cats cannot digest and absorb. Eating ice cream can cause diarrhea, vomiting, and other digestive problems in cats. In addition, ice cream has a relatively high sugar content, which can increase the risk of diabetes in cats.

Here are some tips for making ice cream that is safe for cats to eat:

  • Use lactose-free milk or cream.
  • Add a small amount of yogurt to help with digestion.
  • Avoid adding sugar or other sweeteners.

Here are some recipes for homemade ice cream for cats:

  • Catnip ice cream: Mix catnip, lactose-free milk, and yogurt in a bowl. Freeze for at least 4 hours.
  • Canned cat food ice cream: Mix canned cat food, lactose-free milk, and yogurt in a bowl. Freeze for at least 4 hours.
  • Broth ice cream: Mix broth, lactose-free milk, and yogurt in a bowl. Freeze for at least 4 hours.
