Cats cannot eat pomegranates. Unless the owner removes all the pomegranate seeds from the cat, it will cause diarrhea, abdominal pain, and even gastroenteritis. When cats eat pomegranates, they do not spit out the seeds like us humans do. Pomegranate seeds contain toxic cyanide. If cats chew them, the toxic substances will dissolve in the gastric juice, causing diarrhea, abdominal pain, gastroenteritis, and serious illness. May cause death.
Other foods that cats cannot eat:
1. Milk. Many cats are lactose intolerant. Drinking milk can easily cause vomiting and diarrhea. Goat milk powder can also supplement nutrition, and yogurt without additives can also be given to cats, which can also promote gastrointestinal digestion.
2. Alcoholic beverages. If excessive ethanol is ingested, it will destroy the cat's brain cells and body cells, causing vomiting, diarrhea, difficulty breathing, nervous system abnormalities, etc.
3. Coffee and chocolate. Theobromine and caffeine can be toxic to cats.
4. Grapes can easily cause acute renal failure in cats, so it is best not to try them lightly.
5. Avocado contains a chemical toxin called “Persin”, which is very harmful to cats. It can cause digestive tract problems, difficulty breathing, high fever in cats, and can be fatal if taken in large amounts. However, avocado-based cat food on the market is edible, and these cat foods often have harmful substances removed.
6. Persimmons can cause intestinal obstruction or enteritis in cats.
7. Peaches, plums, cherries, apricots, etc. The seeds of these fruits contain cyanide, which can cause vomiting, difficulty breathing, and even intestinal obstruction in cats.
