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?
Cat food is enriched with the amino acid taurine, which they can't produce themselves. Dog food is not. Feeding cats exclusively on dog food will kill them eventually, via blindness and heart disease.
Not a disaster if they steal it from the dog once or twice, but it cannot be their long-term diet.
Yeah, it doesn't really belong in the 'no' column. It's not an appropriate cat food because it's not nutritionally complete.
So it's rather like how just eating bread or cornmeal that don't have added vitamins will give you scurvy or pellagra. But obviously they're not poisonous or anything and most of the world eats them without a problem.
