Variety of Vegetables Some of Which Can Be Toxic To Cats If you own a cat, chances are that at one point or another you have had to keep your furry friend from eating from your plate. You know the age-old saying, 'Curiosity killed the cat'? Yeah, well...there's a reason that phrase came to be. Cats are notorious for being curious about things that they maybe shouldn't be, and human food is no exception. Maybe your cat seems to want a taste of the vegetables on your plate. This might leave you wondering what vegetables are safe for cats. The last thing we want is to have to rush our babies to the emergency room because we didn't realize that the food we let them have a little bite of was toxic! In this article, I will cover what vegetables are safe for cats as well as vegetables that you should avoid feeding your kitty. As always, check with your veterinarian before feeding any new foods to your cats, as some cats many have certain health considerations to keep in mind. The Importance of Being Informed About Safe Vegetables for Cats Let's first start with why  it's so crucial to have the knowledge on which vegetables are safe (and which ones are not so safe) for cats. Cats are simply not built the same as humans, and they certainly do not have the same nutritional needs as we do. What might be perfectly safe for us to consume could be deadly to our kitties. For example, according to Preventive Vet , all foods in the Allium genus (onions, garlic, chives, shallots, etc.) are very toxic to cats as they have sulfur-containing oxidants, disulfides, and thiosulfates. These foods have no effect on humans, but to cats they can cause oxidative damage to red blood cells. While I could go on for ages about the various types of food that is dangerous or toxic for cats, I'm here to talk about vegetables in particular. So let's get into it... Vegetables That Are Safe for Cats If you have a little veggie-loving monster on your hands, you may want to know what vegetables you can safely feed your fur baby. While cats are carnivorous and get most of their nutritional requirements from meat, vegetables can be beneficial , as they provide potassium, antioxidants, vitamins, and more. Vegetables should never be used as a meal replacement, however. Additionally, you shouldn't give your cat too many vegetables, as having too much sugar can cause digestive issues in our feline counterparts. But don't fret - feeding some vegetables as a little snack here and there is perfectly fine! Keep reading to find out which vegetables your kitty can safely snack on. Bowl of Broccoli Which is Safe for Cats 1. Broccoli Broccoli is a perfectly safe  vegetable for your kitty. While it may not particularly be a favorite among the cat community, if you notice your cat has eaten some broccoli from your plate, it is perfectly fine. In fact, broccoli offers many health benefits, including antioxidants and disease prevention. 2. Carrots Ah yes, the carrot. A beloved favorite of Bugs Bunny's. Oh wait...that's right. We're talking about cats. Yes, cats can eat carrots too! They are another perfectly safe vegetable for your cat, and they also offer many health benefits. Carrots have many vitamins and minerals , including fiber, B6, potassium, vitamin K1, and beta carotene. No wonder Bugs Bunny loves them so much. 3. Celery Celery is super crunchy and juicy, so it's no wonder cats may occasionally want a little bite of it. The good news is that this is okay! Celery is safe for your cat in moderation, but there are some things to keep in mind if you do decide to once in a while give your kitty a little bite. For instance, make sure that the celery is cut up into small enough pieces to avoid a choking hazard. In addition, always make sure the celery is served plain to your cat and does not have any kind of seasonings, such as garlic. 4. Asparagus Asparagus is another vegetable that is not toxic to cats and can be fed to your kitty in moderation. It's important to note, however, that there are some plants from the asparagus family (or plants that have asparagus in the name) that are listed as toxic on the ASPCA's list of toxic plants for cats . For example, asparagus fern is toxic to cats, so it's important to be very careful when choosing vegetables for your cat. 5. Cauliflower Cauliflower is safe for cats  to eat in moderation as well. It is high in fiber and is a great source of vitamins C and K and folate, which can help improve a cat's immune system. One point to consider when feeding cauliflower is that while fiber can be beneficial for some cats' digestive systems, it can be difficult on other cats' systems and can lead to gastrointestinal issues. Always consult your vet for any health concerns when feeding cauliflower, and take your own individual cat's needs into consideration. 6. Peas Peas are perfectly safe for your cat and contain many vitamins, including vitamins A, B, C, and K. They are also high in zinc, iron, fiber, and flavonoids. You may even find peas in a variety of cat foods, especially those that are advertised as 'grain-free'. 7. Zucchini Zucchini does not contain any toxic compounds  that are harmful to cats. It is low in calories, high in fiber, and contains essential nutrients such as vitamin C and potassium. As with any vegetables, avoid adding any seasonings or oils, and instead just feed it plain to your kitty. Small pieces like always, and only in moderation! Cucumber Which Is Safe For Cats 8. Cucumber This one in particular is a favorite in my household. My cats Luna and Hazel  seem to love the smell of cucumber. Thankfully, cucumbers are safe for kitty cats, and they are a great way to provide a hydrating snack for our furry friends. They also contain essential vitamins and minerals, such as vitamins K and C, potassium, and beta carotene. 9. Cabbage Cabbage is safe for our cats in moderation and also has many of the nutritional benefits as other leafy green vegetables. However, it is important to prepare cabbage correctly. You should always boil or steam cabbage to cook it thoroughly in order to ensure it is safe for your cat. Cabbage, among other vegetables , contain thiocyanate , which can be harmful to the thyroid gland if fed over a long period of time. Cooking the cabbage lowers the thiocyanate to a safe level for your kitty. 10. Sweet Potato Sweet potato is not toxic to cats  when cooked ( raw potatoes  are toxic) and can be given in small amounts. However, it can occasionally cause some discomfort to your kitty, including vomiting and diarrhea. This is due to the high carbohydrate content of potatoes, which cats are not designed to digest very well. Just remember to feed small amounts if you decide to feed your kitty sweet potato. Also, always keep an eye on your cat's reaction to the foods you feed them. Image of Tomatoes and Mushrooms Vegetables That Are Toxic to Cats While there are many safe vegetables for your kitty to snack on, there are quite a lot of toxic vegetables as well. You should always consult your veterinarian and/or a list of toxic substances to cats, such as the ASPCA's list of toxic plants for cats , before feeding your cat a new food. Some of the more common vegetables that are toxic or dangerous to cats include onions, garlic, leeks, chives, raw potatoes, shallots, and tomatoes. Take extra care to make sure your cat does not have access to these vegetables on your plate, counters, or anywhere else they can reach. What to Do if Your Cat Has Eaten a Toxic Vegetable If you find that your cat has ingested a toxic vegetable, it is important to consult a vet right away. Your vet might ask you a series of questions including how much they have eaten, how long it has been, and any signs or symptoms your cat is exhibiting. Each individual case is different, and providing as much information as you can to your vet is crucial so they can identify the correct course of action. In Conclusion While there are a variety of vegetables that are safe for your cat to snack on in moderation, there are also a lot of toxic vegetables out there. It's important for you as your cat's caretaker to be informed on the safety and toxicity of all vegetables, and all food for that matter, that you decide to feed your cat.

Now That's Something to Purr About New Year’s Eve is often associated with wild parties, popping champagne, and staying up way past your bedtime. But for those of us with feline friends, the idea of ringing in the new year with our cats is much more appealing. After all, who needs noisy crowds when you can have soft purrs, cozy blankets, and a night full of feline antics? Here’s how to celebrate New Year’s Eve with your cat in a way that’s equal parts sincere and hilarious. 1. Set the Mood with a Cat-friendly Party Theme to Celebrate New Years Eve with your Cat Forget glitter and loud noisemakers—cats aren’t exactly fans of chaos. Instead, opt for a theme that caters to your feline companion. “Pajama Purr-ty,” anyone? Break out your coziest loungewear, and let your cat claim the fluffiest blanket in the house. Bonus points if it’s covered in cat hair already. Purr-fectly Cozy - New Year's Paw-ty 2. Create a Cat-friendly Feast While you sip on bubbly (or sparkling cider), treat your cat to a gourmet dinner. Splurge on a premium wet food or make them a safe homemade meal (just skip the onions, garlic, and anything too fancy). Serve it on their fanciest dish—you know, the one they refuse to use because it’s “too new.” The Strawberries are for Me 3. Countdown to Catnip O’Clock Midnight may mean fireworks for humans, but for cats, it’s prime time for zoomies. Celebrate with a sprinkle of catnip or a new toy to mark the occasion. A laser pointer duel or a feather wand battle can provide some New Year’s Eve exercise for both of you. Countdown to Catnip 4. Host a Kitty Karaoke Session If your cat’s meows sound like music to your ears, now’s the time to duet. Belt out Auld Lang Syne while your cat “sings” along—or stares at you in silent judgment. Either way, you’re making memories. Play Pawty Like It's 1999 5. Watch Cat-themed TV or Movies Together Swap the ball drop for something truly riveting: cat videos. From YouTube compilations of cats knocking things over to movies like The Aristocats , your cat might not care, but at least you’ll be entertained. I Promise to Put on Animal Planet 6. Share New Year’s Resolutions Who says resolutions are just for humans? Write down some realistic goals for your cat, like “Nap in three new spots” or “Finally catch the red dot.” For yourself, consider resolutions that involve more snuggle time or fewer Instagram photos during nap moments (or not). I Promise to Let You Have a Sip of Milk Later 7. Toast to Another Year of Cat Companionship As the clock strikes midnight, raise a glass (and a treat) to the wonderful bond you share. Sure, your cat may be more interested in chasing a dust mote, but you know they love you in their own mysterious way. Let's Toast to a Cat-Tastic 2025 8. Prepare for Firework Anxiety If your neighborhood celebrates with loud fireworks, have a plan to keep your kitty calm. Create a cozy hiding spot with their favorite blanket, or play soothing music to drown out the noise. Your cat will appreciate the effort, even if they pretend not to. Pretty, but Can They Turn Down the Volume on the Fireworks 9. Document the Evening (But Keep It Chill) Snap a few photos or record a short video to commemorate your quiet celebration, but don’t let the camera take over. After all, the best moments happen when you’re fully present. Cheers to Our Pawsomeness 10. End the Night on a Purrfect Note New Year’s Eve doesn’t have to end in a wild party. Cuddle up, share a midnight snack, and drift off to sleep knowing you’ve spent the evening with the best companion around. So, here’s to starting the new year with purrs, headbutts, and endless whisker kisses. Happy Mew Year! #catlover #mewyear #newyearseve #newyearnewmeow #nyewithcats #catsofinstagram #catloversunite #purrfectnewyear #catladylife #meowyearseve #mewyearsresolution #countdowntocatnip

Furry friends, stress relief and the perfect excuse to say "no" Cat-tastic Christmas The holidays are a magical mix of joy, stress, and chaos. Between the endless to-do lists, family gatherings, and gift-buying madness, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Luckily, your feline friend can be your ultimate survival guide during the holiday season. I know that my cats helped me get through the Christmas after my mom passed away and when I cared for my father with advanced Alzheimer's. From reducing stress to providing perfect excuses for personal time, here’s how cats help you not just survive but thrive this holiday season. 1. The Purr-fect Stress Relievers Science has our backs on this one: the sound of a cat’s purr is proven to lower stress levels and even reduce blood pressure. When holiday prep starts to feel more like a marathon than a celebration, just sit down with your cat. Their rhythmic purring can work like a natural meditation app, helping you refocus, recharge, and put things into perspective. My cat Latte purrs loudly. Holding him when he's purring helps me slow down on a busy day. Bonus Tip:  Incorporate a quick “cat break” into your holiday routine. A 5-minute snuggle session can do wonders for your mood. Making the holidays purr-fect 2. The Ultimate Gift Wrapping Assistant What’s a holiday without wrapping paper chaos? Your cat will happily supervise—or star in—your gift-wrapping process. They’ll test the structural integrity of ribbons, investigate the crinkly sounds of paper, and sit smack in the middle of whatever you're wrapping. Sure, it’s not technically  helpful, but it’s the comic relief you didn’t know you needed. My cat Lulu thinks she's an excellent gift wrapper. (Newsflash: she's NOT!) Cat Parent Insight:  Document their adorable interruptions. Photos of your cat "helping" make the best holiday content for social media. Cat wrapping the Christmas gifts 3. Cats as Your Personal Social Battery Protectors Not feeling that family dinner with your third cousins? Your cat is here to save the day. Having a pet to “check on” gives you the perfect excuse for a quick exit from overwhelming conversations or crowded rooms. Example Excuse: “Sorry, I need to get home to feed Fluffy!” or“Oops, my cat is probably redecorating the house as we speak—I better go check.” Your cat becomes your golden ticket to reclaiming your peace when holiday social obligations become too much . 4. They Remind You to Slow Down While you’re running around prepping dinners or decking the halls, your cat is likely lounging in a sunny spot or napping under the tree. It’s their way of reminding you that rest is essential . Take a cue from your feline friend: Pause to enjoy a warm cup of tea. Take a break and curl up with a blanket. Sneak in a nap when you need it. Cats are experts at relaxation, and during the holidays, it’s an essential lesson to learn from them. Cuddle up with kittens 5. They Add Pure Joy to the Season From batting at ornaments on the Christmas tree to inspecting every single gift under it, cats bring lighthearted fun to the holiday hustle. Their curious antics and playful personalities remind us that the holidays are meant to be enjoyed—not just endured. Ideas for Festive Cat Fun: Buy (or DIY) a holiday-themed cat toy. Create a cozy, festive corner just for your cat. Get a cute holiday photo of your cat (Santa hats optional). Every holiday moment is better with a furry companion by your side. Cat dressed up for Christmas in Christmas sweater 6. They’re Always There for You Let’s face it—holidays aren’t easy for everyone. Whether you’re missing someone, feeling lonely, or dealing with stress, your cat is always there. A quiet cuddle, their warm presence, and unconditional companionship can make all the difference when the season feels heavy. Cat Fact:  Spending time with pets releases oxytocin, a hormone linked to happiness and bonding. Your cat might not know how to roast a turkey or wrap the perfect gift, but they bring something even more valuable to the holidays: comfort, calm, and pure joy. When the holiday chaos reaches a fever pitch, let your feline friend remind you of what really matters—love, laughter, and a little time to slow down. This season, let your cat be your holiday survival guide. You’ll emerge more relaxed, happier, and with the perfect excuse to sneak away when needed. Happy Holidays to you and your purr-fect pal!

The holiday season is fast approaching, and while it's a time to gather with friends and family, it's also a great opportunity to dive into hobbies that bring joy and relaxation. For cat lovers, or "cat ladies", there's no shortage of ways to combine a love for felines with some delightful pasttimes. Whether you're looking for a creative outlet, an excuse to spend more time with your cat, or simply want to embrace the cozy vibes of the season, these purr-fect holiday hobbies for cat lovers will help you make the most of the festive season. Reading by the Fire (or next to your cat) Is there anything better than curling up with a good book and a warm cat by your side? As a lover of books, I tend to go overboard with reading during the holidays. Starting with October, I dive into scary books, shop cookbooks in November and read business books in December to set my intentions for the new year. For many cat lovers, reading is the ideal way to unwind, and the holiday season is perfect for cozying up with a captivating novel. Whether you're into mysteries, romance or non-fiction, your furry companion will love being your reading buddy, purring softly as you turn the pages. Consider picking a cat-themed book if you want to make your holidays extra cat-tastic! Don't forget that we have some great t-shirts for the cat-loving bookworm in your life this Halloween. Arts, Crafts and DIY Cat Projects If you enjoy being hands-on, why not take up crafting? Knitting and crocheting are especially popular hobbies during the colder months, and they're perfect for creating cozy scarves, blankets or a knit cap for your kitty! Make your feline friend a bed, some felt mice or even a cat-shaped ornament for your Christmas tree. Handmade projects can also double as thoughtful gifts for fellow cat lovers in your life. Creating a Cat Friendly Garden While gardening may seem like a springtime hobby, winter gardening can be equally rewarding. Planting an indoor herb garden with cat friendly plants like catnip, basil or thyme will keep your cat entertained throughout the holiday season. Not only will you enjoy watching your plants grow, but your feline will love sniffing around and nibbling on these safe and tasty greens. Plus, it's a fun way to bring a bit of greenery into your home during the colder months. Cat Photography - Capture the Cuteness With the holidays comes festive decor, which creates the perfect backdrop for adorable cat photos. Whether you're an amateur or a budding photographer, capturing your cat in various holiday scenes can be a lot of fun. Get creative with lights, ornaments or seasonal outfits (if your cat allows). You'll be able to create memories, and your social media followers will love the holiday-themed posts. You might even want to turn your best shots into holiday cards to send family and friends. Check out the photo I created of my cat Lulu in a spooky Halloween setting. Baking for Your and Your Feline Friend Baking is a beloved holiday activity, and there's no reason why your cat can't join in on the fun. You can whip up homemade cat treats alongside your traditional holiday cookies, using cat-safe ingredients like canned pumpkin, oats or chicken broth. While you enjoy your festive baked goods, your kitty can savor their own special snack. It's a great way to bond during the season of giving, and your cat will love being pampered with a treat made just for them. Don't forget to wear a cat-themed apron that you can get at comfortdiva.com . Volunteering for Animal Rescues For many cat lovers, the holiday season is a time to give back. If you're passionate about helping animals, consider volunteering at a local shelter or fostering a cat in need. FYI - I adopted my cat Lulu from a friend who was fostering to adopt through ASPCA. Many animal rescues are especially busy during the winter months, and your time and compassion can make a big difference. Not only will you be helping cats find loving homes, but you'll also meet like-minded people in your community who share your love for felines. Collecting Cat-Themed Decor and Gifts If you're someone who loves to celebrate your feline obsession, why not spend the holiday season expanding your collection of cat-themed items? From festive decorations to t-shirts, there's no shortage of stylish and fun pieces to bring a touch of whimsy to your holiday festivities.

USE COUPON CODE WITCH20 AND SAVE 20% ON COMFORTDIVA.COM When you think of Halloween, images of black cats, witches, and broomsticks often come to mind. But how did these iconic symbols become intertwined with the spooky season? The connection between cats—particularly black cats—and witches dates back centuries, deeply rooted in superstition, mythology, and fear. Let’s explore the fascinating history of how cats became associated with witches and Halloween. Ancient Egypt: Cats as Symbols of Power and Protection The story of cats in human society begins long before their association with witches. In Ancient Egypt, cats were revered, especially for their role in protecting crops and homes from vermin. The goddess Bastet, depicted with a lioness or domestic cat head, symbolized protection, fertility, and motherhood. Cats were considered sacred creatures, and killing one was a crime punishable by death. Their mystical aura and independence even in early civilization added to their air of mystery. Medieval Europe: Cats and Superstition During the Middle Ages in Europe, cats' fortunes took a dark turn. Their independence, nocturnal habits, and piercing eyes made them objects of suspicion. Black cats, in particular, were thought to be connected to dark forces. The rise of Christianity and a shift in beliefs led to many pagan symbols being demonized, including cats. Some believed that cats, especially black ones, were witches’ familiars—spirits or demons in animal form that helped witches cast spells and communicate with the supernatural. This fear intensified during the witch hunts of the 16th and 17th centuries. Many people, mostly women, were accused of witchcraft, and any cats they kept were often suspected of aiding in their dark magic. This association was so strong that cats, along with their supposed witch owners, were frequently persecuted and killed. The Black Cat and Halloween: A Lasting Symbol The connection between black cats and witches was cemented in the cultural consciousness during the early modern period, and it soon found its way into Halloween traditions. As All Hallows’ Eve, which originated as a Celtic celebration called Samhain, evolved into the modern Halloween, the symbols of witches and black cats became part of the lore surrounding the holiday. Samhain was a time when the veil between the world of the living and the dead was believed to be at its thinnest, allowing spirits and supernatural entities to cross over. Black cats, already associated with witchcraft, became natural figures in the imagery of Halloween. In the Americas, the Puritans—who were deeply suspicious of anything that could be seen as ungodly—reinforced the fear of witches and black cats. The Salem witch trials of 1692 further ingrained these fears in the American psyche. Over time, these fears evolved into folklore, with black cats symbolizing bad luck, especially if one crosses your path. Modern-Day Cats and Halloween Despite their dark history, black cats have undergone something of a renaissance in recent years. Far from being feared, they are now adored as beloved pets, and their association with Halloween has become more playful than ominous. Cats, witches, and Halloween have become a trio that evokes curiosity and a sense of magic, rather than fear and superstition. Today, the black cat is an enduring symbol of Halloween, not because of any dark power, but because of the rich history it carries with it. Whether you view them as mysterious companions of witches or as sleek, elegant pets, there’s no denying the strong connection they have to the season of spooks and spirits. Conclusion The association between cats, witches, and Halloween is one of mystery, fear, and fascination. From revered figures in Ancient Egypt to misunderstood creatures in medieval Europe, cats have taken on many roles throughout history. Today, they are an enduring part of Halloween’s charm, reminding us of the rich tapestry of legends and lore that shape our modern celebrations. As the black cat crosses your path this Halloween, consider the long history it represents—both as a symbol of fear and as a reminder of the magic and mystery that still lingers in our world. #blackcat #halloweenhistory #witchhistory
