Can Cats Eat Ice Cream
On a hot day your cat may beg for a lick of your ice cream, but it is best not to share. Ice cream is loaded with sugars a meat-eating cat does not need and cannot digest well, which strains the organs and, with its high calories, packs on weight - and cats cannot even taste sweetness, so they are really after the milk smell. Many cats are lactose intolerant and get diarrhea from the dairy. The bigger danger is flavor: chocolate holds theobromine that can poison a cat within 4-24 hours; coffee and matcha both carry caffeine that can trigger seizures and fatal breathing failure. Skip the scoop and keep your cat to its own treats.
