Although it's pretty hard to resist, I really try to maintain a cat food, no people food diet for my cats. However, once in a great, great while I'll give them a spoonful of Gerbers baby food as a real treat. But this usually happens on a special occasion like Thanksgiving or something. I tried giving them a little piece of chicken and one of the cats got a nasty case of the runs from it - so it seems they're much healthier with just their favorite Whiska meal
