Can cats eat pistachios?
1 Answer
Published on January 8th, 2015
Pistachios are not considered poisonous to cats; however, like all nuts, they do contain fats which can cause gastrointestinal upset in your cat. Also, many nuts are heavily salted which is not good for our pets. Finally, pistachios and their shells can be a choking or intestinal obstruction risk.
