sounds scary....but honestly I have trouble believing this because my cat has never had any of these problems and has been checked by a vet, found to be perfectly healthy. *shrug*



Chocolate can be like poison to cats and dogs. I thought that was pretty common knowledge.

Ask your vet next time you visit about giving your cat chocolate. He or she will tell you it is toxic to cats (and dogs).

well chocolate is one thing. but i have yet to see any reason to not give them any SUGAR at all, which was my original question, and has yet to be answered.

Don't say you were't warned.

Your cat really has just been very lucky thus far.



BTW guys i neeeed to point this out, i dont "give her" chocolate, she sneaks into my stuff and eats it on her own. and no i'm not a slob who leaves random chocolate and candy around the house, but if i just bought a chocolate bar and set it on the counter for 5 mins, she will jump up and tear through the paper, and start eating it.

to clarify once more, i do NOT intentionally feed my cat chocolate.

I have a dog who will eat ANYTHING. As such it is my responsibility to keep anything away from her reach - just like a child - that could harm her.

If your cat got sick, you will feel awfully bad that you left a chocolate bar unattended that she could get to, especially since you know she will 'steal' it.

The info below is similar to many quotes you will find from vets in response to the question of chocolate and pets:

Quote:
The problem is that cats and dogs like the taste of chocolate and will try to eat it-- so it's the pet owner's job to keep them away from it. If your cat accidentally had a small taste of chocolate sometime in the past and seemed to come out of it okay, it isn't the end of the world. One lick of ice cream won't hurt it, but an ounce of chocolate is definitely toxic to a 10-pound cat, and enough to cause the above symptoms. Don't ever feed chocolate to a cat!

My dog will eat anything except lettuce..

He doesn't seem to be especially fond of chocolate though.. but do not turn your back on a banana, or it will be gone in less than 5 seconds.

My cat loves chicken.

My dad's dog love's rice so much she ate so much that she couldn't have anymore, yet still had a mouth full of rice in her mouth waiting till she could swallow it down.
