can i give my cat sardines in olive oil

Hello! While sardines can be a healthy treat for cats, it's important to be careful with the oil they're in. Olive oil isn't toxic to cats, but it is high in fat and can cause upset stomachs or even pancreatitis in large amounts.

Occasionally giving your cat a little bit of sardine in olive oil can be okay, but it's not something you should do regularly or in large quantities. It's always a good idea to consult with your vet first.

Canned sardines can be a good source of protein and omega 3 fats for cats. However, you should choose sardines packed in water, without salt or other additives. And remember, moderation is key, and your cat's primary diet should be a balanced cat food.
