Healthy bites
- Don’t ever give raw egg whites to your kitty as it contains avidin, which neutralizes biotin (an essential vitamin) making it unavailable to the cat.
- Don’t boil fish—you will destroy the nutrition.
- Don’t feed dry food to cats having bladder problems.
- Don’t feed a cat with dog food.
- Don’t give a cat more than two egg yolks a week.
- Don’t feed poultry bones as these are small and splintery and could choke the cat.
- Don’t give your cat alcohol, however, small the quantity… except when administered under veterinary advise as an antidote to anti-freeze poisoning.
