We feed our cats a commercial diet as well as commercial treats…but we also occasionally love to cook treats or give them a taste of food we’re preparing for us. From a bit of chicken to a little scrambled eggs, our cats enjoy having a bit of variety in their diets, too! But before you give your cat anything other than commercial diets, it’s important to first be able to avoid dangerous foods for cats.
Whether you are cooking for your cat…or just worried about which are dangerous foods for cats (especially important to know when you cat swoops in and grabs something off your plate!), we’ve got a handy list for you!
