Yes — seedless watermelon flesh is a hydrating summer treat for dogs.

🐱 Can cats eat this?

Why

Watermelon is about 92% water and rich in vitamins A, B6 and C. Remove the rind and any seeds first — the rind can cause GI upset or blockage and seeds can be a choking hazard.

If you do share it

Feed small cubes of the red flesh only — no rind, no seeds.
