Hi, I think Axel will be fine. The amount of salt on the bean will still not be enough to cause a significant problem and Edamame beans are not toxic to cats if accidentally ingested. There is no benefit in feeding them Edamame beans ongoing but there is no harm in having it as a one off occasion. I hope this makes sense !
