Is boiled chicken okay for my cat's birthday? Any other safe treats?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | Korat | Male | neutered | 11 months and 24 days old | 2.8 lbs

I want to celebrate my cat’s birthday and offer him boiled chicken for one day of the year instead of his usual Triumph wet and little bit of Triumph dry. He is a healthy 1-year-old Korat. Would that be okay for him? Any other treat ideas?

Happy birthday to Earl Grey! I hope he has a wonderful day. Yes, some boiled chicken will be just fine for him, and I'm sure he will love it. You can offer him some tuna as well, and I'd get him some Temptations treats. My cats adore them. I hope this helps!
