What Happens If a Dog Eats Organ Meat?
Organ meat supplies vitamin A, protein, fat, and trace elements, and is beneficial in moderation. But too much or unclean organs can cause diarrhea, vomiting, indigestion. Excess vitamin A from large amounts unbalances nutrition. Do not feed undercooked organs, which may carry bacteria or parasites and cause food poisoning.

How long can a cat survive without eating?
An adult cat can die after about a week without food or water; a kitten or weak cat can die after 3 days. Long fasting is very harmful. If a cat eats nothing for over 24 hours, take it seriously. Long-term not eating leads to wasting and finally organ failure. Hunger raises the risk of fatty liver; an obese cat fasting over 3 days can get it, so always watch the cat's eating.
