Sometimes when I am eating, my cat follows me and watches. She tries to come really close and smells it. I sometimes want to share my food with her since I feel bad she eats the same things every day.
I've read many lists of human foods that are poisonous to cats, so I am aware of what not to feed her like garlic, onions, raisins, chocolate, caffeinated drinks. etc. And I've also read people's posts on the internet about how they feed their cats scraps from their plate.
I don't intend to feed her human food regularly or in big amounts. I'm talking about like a half to one teaspoon of something once a day or every week, like a nibble of canned tuna, or a tiny sip of the water in tuna cans, a nibble of plain baked chicken without skin, a pea size piece of bread, or a spoon of rice.
Would these be safe for my cat in pea size amounts once a day or once a week in addition to her regular cat food? Would other cooked meats be safe for her as long as they are plain/not seasoned with too much salt/pepper or sauces? How about deli chicken or turkey, plain roasted chicken breast without skin, ... just listing some things we occasionally have.
