    Ps..Think turkey and chocoate are on the list of bad things for kitties too...
    Oh yes, a cat must never eat chocolate! It contains a caffein-like substance called theobromin, which can even kill cats and dogs (leads to heart failure as far as I know).

    Can't imagine turkey being on a 'bad' list.
    So much cat food comes in turkey, plus I give straight up turkey to cats who won't eat.
    I'm sure that chocolate could be toxic, but not sure about the turkey thing.
    Can anyone confirm with documentation?

    I don't think turkey is hazardous in the least. A lot of foods are formulated with it. I know chocolate, and any allium (garlic, onions, shallots, chives, etc.) is bad for cats.

    Turkey? Heck no - my cats LOVE it! Cats are carnivores and need their meat. Be careful feeding only fish, though as they don't get all the nutrients they need and I know feeding tuna all time can actually be harmful.

    About the ONLY thing that Princess Cammie will eat is turkey. She eats a jar or 2 of human baby food (turkey) each day. It soothes her tempermental tummy.

    Kuhio used to eat cheetos, doritos and nachos with jalepeno peppers. She wouldn't eat the whole pepper. She'd lick and chew all the cheese off of it and spit it out. She also loved canned mushrooms and green beans. She lived to the ripe 'ole age of 17, so I don't think human food every now and then will hurt.
    Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.
