Some of you may listen and others won't, but every cat I've known that has eaten Tuna water daily has died from neurological damage. Seriously. Most of it was just a mystery to even the vets. True that cats do get this, but sort of strange that it hasn't happened to any of the other cats I've know. Could just be a coincidence.
They are finally telling parents of small children not to give tuna frequently to small children weighing much more let alone tuna water to small kitties. Luke up mercury poisoning in children. Even the government is now stating one can per week is all you should have. Many scientist feel that is too much.
Mercury is not good for the body. The albacore is actually worse as the mercury likes to attach to the better fats.
If this sounds even slightly plausable, please discontinue the practice. You, obviously, love your feline children so please act accordingly. You wouldn't let them smoke or drink and drive.
Half of you will get this and the other half will think this is like global warming, just b.s. At least look it up. Probably not much about tuna water and cats but should be fairly obvious it isn't good.
MickFredoPDX, I don't give my cat the water from a can of tuna fish every day because I don't even eat tuna fish every day. We're talking once a week, sometimes less. As a prudent pet owner, I'm disappointed - and a little angry - that you assume I would do something so irresponsible because I merely commented in a thread reply that my cat likes the liquid from tuna fish.
