Foods Toxic to Cats:

Garlic and onions: can cause anaemia. Small amounts are usually not dangerous, but even things like garlic or onion powder can be dangerous. For this reason, gravies, sauces, broths etc made for human consumption should not be given to cats.

Green tomatoes, tomato stems or leaves: don’t let your cat chew on these as they contain solanine. If you have a garden or tomato plant, be sure it’s fenced off from your cat.

Chocolate: for the same reason it’s toxic to dogs - it contains methylxanthines, which is also in caffeine drinks. Thankfully, cats lack sweet receptors so they are less likely to eat chocolate.

Raw meat, raw eggs or bones: lots of dangerous pathogens can live on these foods and should never be given to cats raw. Bones can also break off and damage the cats intestine. Pure raw meat also does not contain the required nutrients for a balanced diet. If you do prefer a raw diet for your cat, specially prepared cat meat is required to ensure safety and nutrition.

Alcohol: not even a small amount is okay. Seek vet help immediately if you think your cat has ingested alcohol.

Raw dough: can ferment in the stomach and create alcohol. A vet visit is a must.

Milk or dairy products: a small amount isn’t going to harm your cat in the short term, so it’s perfectly okay if your cat licks up excess cream off your fingers or a bowl. But high amounts or frequent ingestion can cause lots of stomach issues. Cats are lactose intolerant once they wean from their mother.

Grapes or raisins: these can be highly toxic to cats! Even a small amount can cause kidney damage.

Avocado, especially the skin: the flesh of the avocado is perfectly safe in small amounts, but the high fat content can cause pancreatitis in some cats. Avoid letting your cat chew in the skin of the avocado as it can be toxic in higher amounts.

Nuts: due to high fat content, can cause pancreatitis

Xylitol: can lead to liver failure in high enough amounts

Lastly, there are lots of household plants that are very toxic to cats:

Hello supporter❤️,

The war took everything from me, and left us in fear and loss💔😭. I am a mother of 3 children. My husband was seriously injured and can no longer work, and we are now struggling to meet our children's basic needs🥺.

Your support, no matter how small, will help us provide food and safety for them.

I’m so proud of people living with chronic health conditions. That shit is HARD. Idk who needs to hear this, but if no one else has said it: I’m proud of you. You’re sticking it out through so much pain and grief. That’s no small feat.

Every small thing you do for yourself health adds up. The grief is heavy and it comes from a place of love. The grief knows the pain is wronging you.

I’m proud of you. I hope on the good days you can be proud of yourself.

Keep going.

me: it's cold in here, I'll turn up the heat

family: why not just put on a sweater?

me, with temperature regulation issues: see that would make sense, however my head and torso are hot, my hands and feet are freezing, and I'm shivering and sweating all over
