Is this cat treat safe for my cat who takes a taurine supplement?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | Himalayan | Female | unspayed | 6 months and 25 days old | 6.6 lbs

Hi, I bought the attached snack from pet store. Is it suitable for Noushi ? P.S. Noushi takes another multivitamin everyday per vet's advice which has taurine like this snack. Is too much taurine harmful ?

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! The treat is fine, just follow the dosing instructions on the back of the treat bag. With any new treat watch for upset stomach signs: vomit and diarrhea. Extra taurine is not harmful, she will just urinate out the excess. Have a great day!
