There is an old Chinese saying: Curiosity killed the cat. Cats are naturally very curious and are interested in many foods they have never eaten before.

Especially pet cats, watching us humans eat delicious food every day, will also want to have a taste.

As everyone knows, many foods that humans are accustomed to are highly toxic to cats.

Today, let Anan take you to find out!

(If there are any errors, you are welcome to send me a message to correct me in the background. I will make corrections after verifying them clearly!)

01 Things that cats cannot eat at all.

Fruits:

Avocado: Causes poisoning, diarrhea, vomiting, and in severe cases, difficulty breathing and death from suffocation.

Grapes: Cause poisoning, vomiting and diarrhea, and severe kidney failure.

Loquat: Causes poisoning, diarrhea and abdominal pain.

Onions: Destroy red blood cells and cause anemia. They can also cause massive urination and cause kidney damage. In severe cases, kidney failure can occur.

Pear: It can range from dizziness and vomiting in mild cases to difficulty breathing and convulsions all over the body, until respiratory paralysis and cardiac arrest.

Carambola: Causes acute renal failure.

Yangmei: stimulates the gastrointestinal tract.

Lemon: Causes vomiting and diarrhea, leading to gastroenteritis.

Sugar cane: Normal cats can’t chew sugar cane, and they can’t drink sugar cane juice, so don’t feed it.

Oranges, tangerines and grapefruits: Generally speaking, cats hate the smell of tangerine fruits. Some families will use orange peels to drive cats to bed, so they will vomit after eating them.

Meat:

Raw eggs: cause diarrhea and vomiting, may contain parasites worms, causing infections in cats.

(Reply in the comment area: Sterile eggs can be eaten raw, but only the yolks can be eaten. Eating egg whites will cause indigestion and diarrhea.)

Egg albumen: indigestion.

(Another reply in the comment area: The activity of avidin in cooked egg whites will decrease depending on the cooking method, so it’s okay to eat a small amount. If you are worried, you don’t need to eat it.)

Octopus and squid: possible It can cause indigestion, vomiting, diarrhea, and some cats may be allergic.

Vegetarian: (Cats have not evolved into omnivores yet, and I only eat meat. I dare not ask why some people always want to feed me vegetarian food)

Houttuynia Cordata: Can cause vomiting.

Chinese toon: Causes poisoning.

Mushrooms such as flower mushrooms, tea tree mushrooms: no demand, and burdensome to digest.

(It’s okay to accidentally take a bite of oyster mushrooms and shiitake mushrooms, but cats really have no need to eat mushrooms. Put away your curiosity.)

Garlic yellow garlic cloves, leeks, etc.: hazards Same as garlic and leeks.

Drinks: (The suggestion is: cool boiled water is good for cats and people!)

Milk and milk products: Adult cats have lactose intolerance, which can cause vomiting and diarrhea. . (There are many lactose-free pet milks on the market that actually contain very little milk.)

Coffee/cocoa: highly toxic, causing severe vomiting and diarrhea, and even heart disease.

Alcohol: vomiting, mental disorder, and in severe cases, shock and renal failure. (Do not feed indiscriminately!)

Soda water: irritates the gastrointestinal tract, leading to vomiting, and in severe cases, death from dehydration.

Juices: irritate the gastrointestinal tract and cause chronic vomiting.

Milk tea: Too much sugar, which affects gastrointestinal health and causes indigestion

Tea: causes vomiting and diarrhea

Desserts:

Chocolate: Causes poisoning, leading to convulsions, and in severe cases, shock and death.

Ice cream, etc.: Cats with lactose intolerance and gastrointestinal sensitivity can cause vomiting and diarrhea under the dual stimulation of milk as raw material and coldness.

Many cats like to eat desserts, snacks, and bread because they like the high calories in such foods. In fact, cats cannot taste sweetness, and eating sweets does not make them feel happy like humans do by secreting dopamine.

Nuts: All nuts are dangerous to cats.

02 Cats can satisfy their cravings, but they should eat less

Staple foods:

Rice and steamed buns: high starch content

Oats and other cereals: if Cats can eat a few bites if they like it

Potatoes, yams, pumpkins, corn, sweet potatoes, taro, purple sweet potatoes and other whole grain staple foods can be eaten. But the cat itself doesn’t need it, so just take a few bites to satisfy its craving.

Meat:

Shrimp: It has no nutritional value to cats. It is okay to eat it occasionally to improve the taste, but you must also feed it carefully to be careful of allergies.

Animal viscera: Too much can lead to poisoning, just eat a small amount once or twice a week

Boiled egg yolks: Do not exceed one at a time.

Shellfish: May cause allergies and put a strain on the kidneys.

(Shellfish should be eaten with caution. They are not within the hunting range of cats and may cause allergies. They must be cooked. An appropriate amount of mussels is good for cats. Eat a small amount for the first time and then observe whether there are any allergies. )

Vegetarian:

Cats can eat less of cabbage, cauliflower, chrysanthemum, cabbage, winter melon, lettuce, etc., but be careful not to add salt.

After all, cats are not vegetarians, so they are placed in the less-eating column. Feeding your cat vegetables every day is still not in line with its kingly genes.

Fruits:

Apples, bananas, strawberries, watermelons, cherries, durians, mulberries, figs

03 Things cats can eat more.

Cats are carnivores.

Beef, chicken, mutton, pork, beef tendons, beef bones, fish, quail, and pigeons can all be cooked and fed to cats.

Tofu and soy milk: supplement plant protein.
