My cat wants oatmeal. Is a small, plain, salt-free portion safe?

Cinnamon should not harm your cat if ingested in small amounts but it is not a necessary part of a balanced diet. I would avoid giving her any cinnamon if you can. If she does happen to ingest a large amount you should call your veterinarian.

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I am assuming by corn flakes you mean a human breakfast cereal. It is ok if Felix eats some, it won't hurt him and it's not toxic. It just shouldn't be his main source of nutrition, he should be eating 95% of a balance cat food either canned or dry. But like I said as a treat or by accident if he eats a corn flake it shouldn't hurt him. Hope this helps!

I would advise against feeding many of these canned fish options meant for human consumption due to the extremely high sodium content. Cats do not do well with that much sodium in their diet. If there is no other option and it is going to be a ONE TIME thing, don't let your cat starve, but I wouldn't do it more than once.

Almond milk isn’t toxic, and a small amount would be okay occasionally. Some cats have sensitive stomachs and anything outside of their normal food can cause diarrhea. I also wouldn’t recommend giving any milk with sugar or other sweeteners.

Pretzels do not have any toxic ingredients that are dangerous to cats, so they are not harmful, but some cats may have sensitive stomachs and any new/unusual foods may cause mild GI upset, so I recommend caution in offering new foods and only offering in small amounts. Pretzels do have a high salt content which is not ideal, so if you are looking for a treat for your kitty I would consider a commercially available treat or SMALL bits of tuna or other cooked lean meat.

It is not ideal to feed your pets people food like bread however a small amount should be ok and should not harm your cat. If you do decide to give people food as treats, do so in only small amounts. Use foods that are bland and easily digestible (like a small piece of bread) and have low calories. One of the biggest problems with feeding people food to pets is that it can cause them to become overweight. It can also make them picky eaters in the future.

I would not be concerned if those were the only ingredients, Otis should be fine. He may get a slight amount of gastrointestinal upset. You may notice some mild vomiting or diarrhea. If this is the case try placing him on a bland diet for a few days to help support his system while it recovers; http://m.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=31506 It is unlikely If he becomes very unwell, please seek veterinary care or start by posting another question on the forum. As I mentioned, I believe Otis will be fine.
