5. It's probably better for the cats than commercial food.
My mom always boils the inner bits (gizzzards?) for stock and then cuts them up for the cats. They actually like them better than the muscle meat, which makes sense when you think about it- in a more natural state they'd be eating mice and small birds, which are mostly skin and guts with not much muscle or fat.

My worry would be the added salt, which is definitely not good for them- most commercial turkey has salt water added to increase it's weight.
