CATDOLL : Can cats eat sweet potatoes? Raw or cooked?

Cats can eat sweet potatoes, and it is best to eat cooked sweet potatoes. Sweet potatoes are rich in many kinds of nutrients such as vitamins and minerals, which can provide a lot of nutritional supplements to cats. They are not only beneficial to gastrointestinal motility, but also promote digestion and improve constipation. It is recommended that cat owners feed sweet potatoes to cats once a week, because cats are carnivores and do not need to consume too much carbohydrates. Cat food should be the main food.

Things to note when feeding sweet potatoes to cats:

1. It is not recommended for owners to feed cats raw sweet potatoes, because this can easily cause indigestion in cats, so it is recommended to cook the sweet potatoes thoroughly before feeding them to cats.

2. Feed cats in small and appropriate amounts, once a week. Because sweet potatoes are sticky, eating too much can easily cause caries or tartar, which is not good for the health of teeth.

3. You can steam the sweet potatoes, mash them into a paste, and mix them into cat food to increase the taste of the cat food.
