Cucumbers are made up of 95% water, which makes them an excellent source of hydration for cats.
Risks
If given in large amounts, cucumber can upset your cat’s tummy and cause diarrhea due to the high water content.
It is also recommended to peel the cucumber to avoid any potential pesticide exposure.
Suggestions
Cats should only be offered small amounts of cucumber as an occasional treat.
Start with just a couple of small pieces that are peeled and diced.
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.
