Potato peels, just like raw potatoes, are full of glycoalkaloid solanine that is toxic to cats. What's more, peels are covered in dirt, bacteria and pesticides that you don't want your cat ingesting.

Hello, Wink! Happy Cat of the Day!
What a gorgeous kitty you are! I like your gem-like blue eyes and your striking markings! Especially the slightly darker areas on your sweet face.
You are a bit of a shy kitty around visitors- you go away until after they're gone. Anyone who is fortunate to meet you falls in love! As they should! You talk to your people at 4 AM because to you, that's play time! Best of all, you are a much-loved kitty - PURRRRfect!
Happy, happy Cat of the Day to Wink!
Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.
I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!
Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!
"That's the power of kittens (and puppies too, of course): They can reduce us to quivering masses of Jell-O in about two seconds flat and make us like it. Good thing they don't have opposable thumbs or they'd surely have taken over the world by now." -- Paul Lukas
"We consume our tomorrows fretting about our yesterdays." -- Persius, first century Roman poet
