Can I give my cat eggs? Are egg whites, yolks, or both safe for them?

Eggs are fine to give to cats, even the white part, but only if they are cooked. You can scramble up a plain egg (no cheese, milk, salt, pepper, or seasonings) for your cat to have as an occasional treat. Just make sure the egg is fully cooked, raw eggs are not safe for cats. I hope this helps :-)

A small amount is fine. As long as they are thoroughly cooked it should be OK for your cat to have some of an egg yolk. It is best that their main source of food is a balanced cat food. That ensures they are getting plenty of minerals and vitamins that are necessary in the right ratio's.

It’s ok if you are feeding them as “treats” as long as they are cooked and not raw. It is not necessarily “good” to do. The main part of any kitten/cat’s diet should be a food formulated for kittens/cats.

You can give a BOILED egg as a treat once in a while. However, if you feed a complete puppy food for large sized dogs, you do not need to feed any eggs. Do not feed raw eggs as this will cause health problems (they contain avidine which causes biotin deficiency which in turn causes problems with your dog's nails and fur.

I wouldn't recommend frying the eggs but giving scrambled eggs in moderation is okay to add into their food. Fried eggs have excess amounts of grease and can lead to GI upset so I would avoid frying any foods that you are giving to your two cats. I hope this helps!

Eggs are fine as an occasional treat, but it's not something that Andy should get daily. The only food that a dog needs is a high quality dog food, which will provide him all the nutrients he needs to be healthy. Adding additional food on top of that will lead to extra calories and weight gain. Weight gain leads to obesity, which in turn leads to its own health problems such as heart disease, diabetes, and joint problems. It would be fine to give him a boiled egg (no shell) once or twice a week as a treat. You can also give him a scrambled egg, but make sure it's egg only and no seasonings etc. Good luck, I hope this helps!

Feeding cats raw eggs, peanut butter, popcorn and canned fish sound like old wives' tales with no scientific basis. :-) That said, it is fine to give Penelope a cooked egg 1-2 times per week in addition to a balanced commercial diet. It won't necessarily keep her healthier for longer, but it shouldn't do any harm.
