Top six human foods that cats can eat
Here are the Top six human foods that cats can eat. Most of your pet's diet should be nutritionally complete cat food. But every once in a while you can give her a treat from your plate.
You just need to know how to choose cat-friendly snacks, with nutrients she
needs.
Number 1: Meat Cats are meat eaters
Meat is essential for a strong heart, good vision, and a
healthy reproductive system. Cooked beef, chicken, turkey, and a little number of
lean deli meats are good for cats. Raw or spoiled meat could make a cat sick.
If you wouldn't eat it, please don't give it to your pet.
Number 2: Whole Grains
Oats contain a lot
of protein per calorie, and they're easy to make. Many cats like corn, and
polenta, a coarsely ground cornmeal. Those have a good texture for them. You can
try brown rice, barley, and wheatberries, but you may need to mash them first.
Cats tend to like smaller grains. For example millet and couscous. Just make
sure that any grains you give are cooked. So, your kitty can digest them
fully. Whole wheat breadcrumbs are OK, too.
Number 3: Fish
Fish contains a lot
of omega-3 fatty acids, which help your cat's eyes stay sharp as well as help
with arthritis, kidney disease, and heart disorders. Canned or cooked fish is
fine for them. But don't share your sushi. Giving raw fish isn't a good idea.
Number 4: Eggs
Eggs are another source of protein for cats but make sure that
eggs are cooked. Like raw meat and fish, raw eggs are harmful to cats.
Number 5: Veggies
Not all cats like vegetables. Fewer cats like fruits. But fruits
are a rich source of vitamins, and they're loaded with fiber and water to help
with digestion. Vegetables like fresh cucumber or cantaloupe, steamed broccoli,
or asparagus are good but you might have better luck slipping him a veggie
burger, just be careful the patty doesn't include onions or garlic.
Number 6: Cheese
Cheese is a
high-protein snack. A small amount of cheese is fine for your cat. But comparing
to meat, fish, and eggs the protein in cheese is less "complete. Also,
many cats' tummies can't handle dairy. So, go easy on the cheesy treats. Skip
the saucer of milk.
