🐱 Can cats eat this?

Why

Bananas are high in potassium, fibre and vitamins and low in sodium. Because they're also high in natural sugar, the AKC recommends them as an occasional treat rather than a daily food.

If you do share it

A few small slices as a treat. Follow the '10% rule' — treats shouldn't exceed 10% of daily calories.
