There are more and more people who use cats as pets now. So what problems do we need to pay attention to when we are raising pet cats? As we all know, cat's gastrointestinal problems are not a trivial matter. Especially now some popular varieties, their stomachs are generally fragile. Therefore, today we will talk about which foods must not be eaten by cats.
Chocolate
We all know that chocolate is fatal for dogs. In fact, the same is true for cats. The chocolate we usually eat, as well as coffee, and its main raw materials are cocoa beans. The main component of cocoa beans is cocoa. But cats are different from humans and cannot be metabolized normally. Therefore, a large amount of cocoa alkali accumulate in the cat can cause poisoning, which will affect the central nervous nerve of the cat, which is not conducive to their health.
Onion
Onions are ordinary for us, but it is a very dangerous food for cats. Onions contain sulfur sulfate. Because human body contains enzymes that digestion sulfate sulfate, there is no problem. But cats do not have this enzyme, so sulfide can easily destroy hemoglobin in the cat's blood. Cats may be gloomy, anemia, and panting after eating. If a cat eats a lot of onions, it may cause death. Therefore, the owner must keep the cat away from the onion.
Persimmon
The pet owner of cats should know that the cat's stomach is relatively fragile, so they can't eat many things. If you give cats to eat persimmons, it is easy to stimulate the cat's gastrointestinal tract, and cats will vomit and diarrhea. Moreover, the substances contained in persimmon seeds can cause cat intestinal obstruction and enteritis, which hurts the cat very much.
High sugar food
For cats, high sugar foods are like poison. Many people like to eat desserts, such as cake, ice cream or other desserts. But you'd better not feed the cat dessert. If a cat often eats high sugar foods, it will cause cats to be overly obese, fragile teeth, and even cause diabetes and heart disease.
Octopus, shrimp, crab
Cats cannot eat some types of seafood. Most cats are allergic to octopus. If the cat eats octopus, it will destroy the cat's digestive system and even let the cat suffer from chronic gastroenteritis. Shrimp and crab will hinder the absorption of vitamin B1 in the cat's body. If a cat lacks vitamin B1, it will cause cat vomiting, decreased appetite, spasm, and unstable walking.
Avocado
Avocado is a healthy fruit for people, but it is slightly toxic for cats. The leaves, seeds, and bark of avocado contain a toxin, which can cause cat vomiting and diarrhea.
Other foods that need attention
Although some foods are not fatal for cats, they will also hurt cats, such as raw eggs and drinks containing caffeine. In addition, cats cannot drink milk. Because the cat's stomach cannot absorb lactose, drinking milk will cause cats to gastrointestinal discomfort and diarrhea. The owner can use goat milk instead of milk for cats.
