Ever since the cat was brought home, every move the cat makes has attracted the attention of the cat. And every cat owner hopes that his cat can be healthy and happy by his side.

If you want your cat to be healthy and happy, the most important thing you should not be careless about is diet. As the saying goes, diseases come from the mouth. Once a cat eats food that it should not eat, it is likely to cause safety hazards to your own cat. The editor hopes that many poop scrapers will pay attention to it. What are the 5 common foods in our lives that cats cannot eat?

First: Seasoning

After countless centuries of evolution, human beings have constantly innovated various kinds of food in food. The food we eat requires various seasonings to cook food that suits our stomachs, and these foods cooked with various seasonings are poison to cats.

If cats are allowed to eat seasoned food for a long time, firstly, it will cause huge detoxification pressure on the cat’s stomach and liver. Secondly, it will make the cat’s hair dry and dry. It is a potential safety hazard for cats. Human food must be ranked first, and poop scrapers must pay attention to it.

Second: Animal Offal

Cats are carnivores, and meat is definitely essential. However, in order to reduce the cost of cat food, some owners choose some cheap offal to feed cats, which can greatly reduce the cost of cat food.

If a cat is allowed to eat offal for a long time, it will cause great hidden dangers to the cat's body. Animal offal contains a relatively large amount of vitamin A. Cats cannot absorb and metabolize vitamins, which can easily lead to symptoms such as liver and kidney failure in cats. Therefore, for the health of cats, the editor recommends not feeding animal offal.

Third: Meat

Some friends may ask, aren’t cats carnivores? How come meat has become a food that is a safety hazard? The editor wants to say that it is not that meat is a safety hazard for cats, but that some cat owners think that the staple food in their cat food is not meat? So why don’t I feed meat directly?

If a cat only eats meat and does not eat cat food for a long time, it will easily cause nutritional imbalance. We know that meat is rich in protein, but cats not only need protein, but also need many nutrients to be healthier. If you want your cat to be healthy, you can use cat food as the main ingredient and supplemented by meat. Only with this combination can the cat have balanced nutrition and a healthy body.

Fourth: Rats

Although cats and rats are natural enemies, should cats eating rats not be a safety hazard? Why can't you eat it? Many cats today are pet cats, raised in captivity from generation to generation. Although their genes still have the instinct to hunt, their various physical indicators are no longer suitable for eating mice.

Rats themselves carry a lot of bacteria and infectious viruses. If a pet cat eats such rats, it is easy for the cat to be infected with bacteria and become sick. Nowadays, once a pet cat gets sick and is hospitalized, it can cost thousands of dollars, so it is better to stay away from these.

Fifth: Milk

Many friends will think that children drink milk powder and milk to supplement nutrition. Kittens should also be able to drink milk. They think that milk contains a lot of nutrients and will definitely make cats look beautiful.

If a cat drinks milk for a long time, it is actually a burden on the body. Most cats have symptoms of lactose intolerance. Lactose is a kind of glucose and galactose, which needs lactase to be broken down in the body before it can be absorbed. However, many cats lack lactose digestive enzymes and lactosin, so they are prone to diarrhea (diarrhea) after drinking milk. So cats can only drink breast milk or Shuhua milk instead of milk!
