cats and pistachios
by J
(Houston)
My cat ate a pistachio the other day.
I dropped it on the floor and didn't rush to pick it up, b/c it did not occur to me he would be interested!
Over the last couple of days, I've given him 2-3, per day. Are pistachios good or bad or neutral for cats? I don't recall seeing pistachios on the list of foods not to feed cats.

Hi
well i haven't heard anything in particular about ill effects from cats eating pistachios either. I guess that the main worries would be allergic reaction like some humans get or getting stuck in throat and choking. They are also high in fat I believe and so too many would not be a good thing.
Perhaps someone else here may be able to comment further or have experience of this situation.
personally I would not give my cats nuts of any description, just because I would worry about the choking hazard etc.
best wishes Kate
