Cats can eat boiled white meat chicken. It should be plain. This is fine to feed for an unspent tummy or as a treat but this not balanced. Cats and kittens need to eat a balanced diet long term. I hope this helps.

    Thank you for your question about Leo! There is nothing necessarily harmful or toxic in cooked chicken, so it could be used sparingly as a treat, but I would recommend talking to your vet about ensuring your kitten is on a well balanced diet and not using just chicken as a primary food source.
