If eaten in small quantities, what human food won't kill a cat? Today I had some errands, got home when my husband was finishing up lunch with a bowl of cereal (plain Cheerios, no sweetener added). Then he took a spoonful of milk and let Shadow lap it up. I told him that she would get diarrhea, that cats can't digest lactose, and he said "It's just a little bit. Besides, she ate a potato chip earlier."
Okay, fine, he's going to share his food with Shadow. I'm sure a lot of people remember about when he fed her an animal cracker. And he's gotten her to where she demands potato chips when she sees people eating them. But I'd like to know what is safe to feed her. I know no chocolate whatsoever, but is there other human food that's absolutely unsafe? Or any human food that won't kill her but will cause enough GI distress that it would make her feel pain? These are little bits of food, like a single potato chip, not filling her bowl full of human food.
