Found this one online while browsing for what cats shouldn’t eat. However I feel like this area is quite controversial and opinionated. Also feels like half the websites are written by AI and riddled with ads. So if anyone has a good source as to what cats should avoid then let me know.
Anyways, I found this nice illustration, but wanted to hear with you peeps whether you have any experience regarding these food items.
Also what’s your take on milk/sour milk for cats? My previous cat loved it so much, and she aged until she was 17 years old, and never seemed to have a problem with it. Also asked the vet at the time and she said it was OK. However every other website I visit tell to never give milk(dairy) to cats. So which is it? Does it just depend on the cat?
Because chicken bones are small, and when they break, they tend to splinter, and the sharp edges can cause damage.
Having said that, my grandma’s cats in the countryside have been living eating raw chicken scraps, leftover human food, and chicken bones. They have never been to the vet and never tasted canned cat food. They’re fine.
Yeah I think the raw chicken thing also varies from country to country depending on what the local agriculture is like. I’m in Australia, we’ve fed our cats raw chicken necks every day for 10+ years and they’ve never had any issues with it. It’s great for their teeth.
I understand some countries’ poultry industries have more pathogens that are potentially harmful. Cats obviously evolved to eat raw meat, just not farmed raw meat, so it depends on how clean the farms are.
Worth noting as well that cooked chicken bones are significantly more dangerous than raw ones
