Some cats will beg and ask for human food, especially when they see you eating. Giving your cat table scraps or pieces of human food is a dangerous practice that should not be encouraged for several reasons. First, cats need the nutrients that are specifically supplied to them in good quality cat food, and any “extras” they consume will take away their appetite for regular meals. A piece of turkey or chicken on your plate will certainly not kill a cat, but you help him develop bad habits.

Human food is not for cats

The main reason to discourage cats from feeding people with “food” is that there are a number of toxic foods for cats. Although tasty and harmless to humans, a simple nibbling can be deadly for your cat. If you own a cat, it’s important to familiarize yourself with everyday foods that can be dangerous or even deadly for cats.

8- Green tomatoes and raw green potatoes

These foods are part of the plant family Solanaceae, which includes deadly nightshade, and contain a bitter and toxic alkaloid called Glycoalkaloid Solanine, which can cause severe lower gastrointestinal symptoms. The leaves and stems are particularly toxic. Do not worry if you see tomatoes included in pre-prepared pet foods. They are made of ripe tomatoes and should not worry because they appear in relatively small amounts.
