CATDOLL : Can pet cats eat ham?

Pet cats cannot eat ham. Ham is not easy for cats to digest and can easily cause indigestion and other abnormalities. Ham has a high salt content, and cats have a very low daily salt requirement. Overfeeding can easily cause kidney damage in cats. It is recommended that cat owners feed cats special cat food to ensure the body's nutritional needs.

The harm of eating ham and other pickled foods for pet cats:

1. There is a lot of salt in pickled foods. If cats consume too much salt, their organs will not be able to digest these salty foods. Once they consume too much salt, it will cause metabolic disorders in cats, making them prone to hair loss and baldness.

2. Cats do not have sweat glands on their skin, so the salt in their bodies must be excreted through the kidneys. If they eat too much salt, it will increase the burden on their kidneys and lead to renal failure.

3. When cats consume too much salt and cannot excrete it normally, it will cause their hair to become dry and dark, and they will lose hair.

4. The cat's eye feces increase, tear marks are obvious, and the eyes may even become red, swollen, and blind.

5. It can cause cats to have serious oral problems, bad breath, indigestion and severe picky eating.
