Happy Thanksgiving from the MitoPets family! We’re so excited to be spending time with our loved ones today, including our furry friends! Here are some foods that are safe for your pets to indulge in too.
🍗Turkey - Cats and dogs can have cooked, unskinned, plain turkey. It’s important to make sure it’s unseasoned, as common seasonings for turkey include alliums like garlic and onion, which can be toxic!
🎃 Pumpkin - Pumpkin is great for cats and dogs and can be a great source of fiber! Make sure it’s cooked and unseasoned.
🫛Green Beans - Pets love green beans! For cats, make sure they’re cooked. Dogs can have them raw or cooked, but make sure that they’re unseasoned for both!
🍠Sweet Potato - A favorite treat for many pets! Make sure it’s cooked and unseasoned, and remove the skins before giving them to your pets.
🥕 Carrots - A great snack, even during the rest of the year. Cats can have them if they’re cooked, and dogs can have them raw or cooked. In both cases, make sure they’re sliced into small, manageable pieces!
Thanksgiving treats like these should still only account for 10-15% of your pet’s diet. Make sure they still get their regular, nutritionally balanced food; but feel free to give them some of these as a special treat! Happy Thanksgiving!
