Can I feed my cat raw liver

Can I feed my cat raw pigs liver as a treat or a suplement? (If she want to eat it ) I bought too much and thought I could give it a try since she only eats dry food.
But I don't know if there's something in pigs liver, or giblets in general, they can't digest.

Course you can but only feed a little as it contains a lot of Vitamin A, which is a fat-soluble vitamin that gets stored in the body. Since you are in Denmark, raw pig bits should be fine to feed.

My cats love raw liver, but as Hobbs said, only as a treat because of the vitamin A. Too much can be bad for cats.

Re: Can I feed my cat raw liver

Hi! ^^ I do remember my neighbour fed his cat raw liver as a treat sometimes and she died at quite an old age...18? I'm going back to when I was really quite young, sorry. Anyway, she was put to sleep as her back legs had gone I believe. But yeah, no immediate problems as a result of feeding liver.

Best of luck!
