Cats are carnivores. But offering your pet cat fruits and vegetables poses no inherent harm and could have some benefits to your pet’s health. Fruits and vegetables have important nutrients that benefit your cat’s wellbeing. Some fruits can be offered to your cats as they are, like apples, bananas, and watermelons so long as the seeds are removed first. Your cat should not be fed with cherries, tomatoes, or grapes. If you wish to cook vegetables first before offering them to your cat, do not add any seasonings or cooking oil, as cats are likely to find that seasoned vegetables taste unpleasant. Try steaming, boiling, or baking the vegetables. Avoid feeding your cat with onions and garlic because these ingredients are toxic to them. For a healthier option aside from cat food that is available commercially, fruits and vegetables are your ideal choices. Remember to talk to your veterinarian Louisville, KY first so that you are sure that the right food types are the only ones offered to your cat because there are fruits and vegetables that are difficult for them to digest or just hazardous for them to eat. Like with any food type, moderation is crucial.
