Sweets for a very hairy Halloween

Halloween is coming! With our snacks you will surprise your furry friend, but at these times, sometimes, you want to start cooking... Below we propose some very simple recipes so that your dog or cat can try something new this day. But first some clarifications:

• Although we generally avoid using cereals in our furry diet, today we are going to use oats and oat flour to make our recipes. It won't do much for your furry friend nutritionally, but all the sweets we're going to eat today don't do much for us either... One day is one day, enjoy!
• These recipes are suitable for both dogs and cats, but since they do not contain any meat, cats are usually more reluctant to try them.
