Holiday Cat Tip 2: I Couldn't Eat Another Bite!

Who can miss all the special food and cooking around the holidays. This may tempt you and your kitty! Unfortunately this can be bad for both of you! Cats can get Salmonella from undercooked or raw meats and fish. Bones from turkey and poultry can get lodged in a cat's throat, causing him/her to choke. Such bones can also break and if swallowed could puncture kitty's stomach. Cats with sensitive stomachs can become ill and vomit from eating too many sweets, snacks, meats or a variety of everything! Onions, which contain Disulfides - a compound that can damage red blood cells in cats, are also dangerous to cats. And remember that chocolate is toxic to cats. So always keep chocolate out of reach of your furry little pal!
