Benefits
Ripe cherry tomatoes contain vitamins and antioxidants that can be beneficial in small amounts.
Risks
Unripe cherry tomatoes, tomato stalks, leaves, and stems contain solanine, which is toxic to cats.
Even a small amount of these parts can cause illness.
Suggestions
If you choose to give your cat cherry tomatoes, ensure they are fully ripe and free of any plant parts.
Monitor your cat closely for any signs of illness and consult a vet if you notice any unusual symptoms.
Note: even if labeled as safe, any food can potentially cause allergies. When introducing a new food, please feed a small amount and observe your cat for any allergic reactions.
