Stop! Don't Give Your Cat or Dog That Chocolate!
"Where's the harm? My cat seems to enjoy chocolate and it's only a small piece."
Just because certain foods, such as chocolate, are enjoyed by us humans and are perfectly safe for us, it does not mean they are suitable for cats.
Chocolate contains chemicals which rarely cause problems for humans, but for cats and other domestic pets, these chemicals can, in rare cases, be deadly. One problem is that cats in general find chocolate very tasty and so, it is important not to feed it to them, otherwise they will eat what you give them up to the point where it poisons them.

Obesity is not only a problem for many Americans but also for their pets. To determine if your pet is overweight, gently place your hands over her ribs. With minimal pressure, you should be able to feel her ribs. If you are unable to do so, she may be overweight. Ask your veterinarian for help treating this unhealthy condition
