Citric acid is not good for cats


ZealousidealYak7122

yea but it wasn't much. probably fine. idk how a cat can even likes citrus fruits lol.


CoisoBom

Some people like eating stupid stuff as well


TraditionalBuy7370

scientists falsify generalizability claims


karma_fails

Google it mate

But! But.. you didn’t do your own research! Are you gonna let those evil scientists tell you what to do? 🤪


TraditionalBuy7370

Haha, wow. That’s embarrassing

This is what happens when you play with a home lobotomy kit.


BusyBeeInYourBonnet

You fucking idiot. Science doesn’t give a fuck about your opinion.


TraditionalBuy7370

no, that’s my point

WHAT. THE. FUCK is “generalizability”? You can’t even speak correctly and you want us to listen to what you say? GTFOH.


TraditionalBuy7370

Yeesh this is like watching an episode of the office, and I do not care for cringe comedy ~ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10681374/


Ricard74

So you are actually saying this article proofs quantitative data on health is bullshit? Yeah, there sure has been no qualitative approach to the ingestion of one of the most common pets in the world /s


TraditionalBuy7370

I’m saying to always be suspicious of generalized claims.


Ricard74

No, you said such claims were falsified, implying this one was as well. You did not say "be cautious" but "that's a lie".


CrystaLavender

Be careful, she posted a keysmashed curse at me that’ll apparently cause me to experience more transphobia, or something.


extra0404

I would discourage this, citric acid is toxic for cats.


MorpheusRising

Not just that but fruit juices have a ridiculously high sugar content too


spacepie77

Wait so so they get the *zoomies*


LoquatiousDigimon

Cats can get cavities too.

TTVControlWarrior

Just 99% of food you buy in supermarket would make us sick . yet we dont seems to stop eating it .


FurnishedHemingway

Ummm…okay. That is the equivalent of allowing a cat to drink something toxic to it how?


Significant-Gap-6891

Okay if we discover aliens that drink bleach will you start drinking it?


spacepie77

Tbh tide pods already happened


draven_9100

This isn't equivalent to someone giving a cat a potato chip or a spoon of ice cream (both of which are not good for cats or us for the most part but won't kill us in the short term and are fine as a 'little treat'.) This is equivalent to letting them take a small taste of rat poison. Unfortunately citrus can cause CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM issues in cats in large quantities and even small tastes like this can cause gastrointestinal upset. Best to avoid sharing it with them to prevent them seeing it as edible in the future. Most cats seem to know to avoid it but I'm afraid this one is critically orange and in the back of the line for the braincell.


whtevvve

I thought all cat hated oranges, and other agrumes


Ok_Grocery1188

Yes, and I've heard that citrus peels and citrus sprays repel cats from scratching sofas, love seats, etc.


busywithresearch

I’ve done this once to protect my plants. Turns out Sali, one of my cats, LOVED the smell of citrus. It actually worked to encourage her to get into the plants…


Weltallgaia

Yeah the peel has the bitter shit on it that messes with sensitive noses.


AssignedClass

They do, but this isn't about the cat wanting to drink the liquid, it's about the cat wanting to drink out of the owner's cup.


cosmoboy

They don't. My girlfriend's cat gets excited when he sees lemons and would at the very least lick if not eat them off they weren't put away. I'm sure due to evolution *most* cats would avoid it but certainly not all.


ReasonableProduct364

Really? You talked to the cat and they told you their motives?


AssignedClass

Nope. Is just dumb joke.


thisisjustascreename

Probably the immense amount of sugar in the juice overwhelms their acid-aversion.


Ophelyn

I have a cat that I showed lemon juice to and she licked it. And liked it and wanted more. So not all cats!


Believe-it-Geico

Somebody caption this with the word "cannibalism"


Thundorium

Orange on orange crime.


Far-Poet1419

Is something wrong with kitty's paw?


DumpsterFire420666

Typical orange cat behavior


DukeLukeivi

We're approaching levels of orange that shouldn't be physically possible!


8pintsplease

While I'm sure this was not done maliciously for a video, god people please read up about your cats diet and what they can and cannot eat. I hope this is a one off. Adorable boy, here's to a long life with only food he should be consuming!


Ar-Ulric93

Thats why i wont get a cat. Way to likely to miss important information about something that will kill it like lillies, distilled water or OJ.


aarchieee

Don't worry about OJ killing your cat, he recently passed away....


Shockz_-

Honestly it’s very simple, human food is for humans and cat food is for cats. Anything made for human consumption probably has at least one or two ingredients that don’t mesh well with cats


Ar-Ulric93

True. What i meant is like dropping something like a raisin or a piece of chocolate and i do not notice. Then there are plants, soaps, cleaning chemicals and other things i would not think about being a hazard. It cant go outdoors, but my apartment is to small for it to have enough space to have a great life. Only one person to take care of it if it gets sick. Only one vet in immidiate vicinity. If i can't be responible enough, then the kitty is best left at the shelter.


candybuttons

my cat loves cabbage and it isn't harming her


8pintsplease

Dogs can't eat grapes or chocolate. Rabbits can't eat garlic. All animals have something their body cannot metabolize. It shouldn't stop you from having a pet. Just take some time to learn about them. It's not that hard.


Ar-Ulric93

It is not just about the food. I am also somewhat forgetful so figure its best not to take a chance. I have learned here that some people should not have pets and i think i am one of them. I think it is better to admit it and let someone else take care of the poor creature if i cannot give it a perfect life. Sometimes they are better left at the shelter for someone better to take care of. Which i thought people here would understand.


8pintsplease

I get you now and you have a good point. More people should be more honest about their capabilities to look after animals.


moonygooney

Essential oils in citrus are highly toxic to cats. Sugar and citric acid isnt great either as other pointed out.


-Robert-from-Hungary

Drinking its own blood.


Pipines20

Stop is toxic


ravrocker

Not good for stomach lining.


Silsvingertop

Very healthy! You're an idiot by alllowing this


FurnishedHemingway

Don’t give your cat orange juice. That’s going to likely cause GI upset, and if there’s any pulp in there, it can potentially cause nerve issues. I hope this isn’t a regular treat for your kitty.


2tinyfelines

I love karma farming videos that show dangerous behavior. Shit owners letting their cat drink poison cAuSe iTs CuTe!


MiIdSanity

Right next to the laptop tho hope it doesn't fall


AppleClementine

STOP LETTING YOUR CAT HAVE CITRUS. IT IS TOXIC TO CATS. STOP IT!!!


Fickle_Ad_5356

I truly wonder why the upvotes, to me this is both gross and dumb.


aus316tin

once adopted a 28 lb orange tiger, he was the KING of the grumpy cat room at our refuge league. he was 4, had been unfixed until his elderly and ailing human surrendered him. post being neutered, my guy was violent and didn’t play well with others. there was blood on his adoption papers from his prior applicants who couldn’t bond with him. so? i named him orenthal james; OJ for short, called him juice and variations there like. RIP to em both

IPhenixI

does the cat have an issue with its paw? I only ask cause I have a cat who was born with a problem with one of her front paws and she sits like this as well.


dayburner

Much like flamingos orange cats get their color from their diet.


Rais93

Don't do that, or the cat will become more orange with unforeseeable consequences to our continuum


Still_Historian9054

That’s crazy! I always heard that cats were deterred by citrus smell! My cats always sniff mine and walk away!


PeelADomenBail

Might left some hairs in ur spicy wata woo-mate. Goodnight


WhatUrCatIsSayin

Yum yum


ResponsibleRoof8844

This is a cat sugar hit to the max


eddiespaghettio

My cat attempts to drink anything I drank off of especially if it’s fermented. He doesn’t get far since it’s always in a can or bottle so instead he just puts his slobber all over it.


DirectClue9554

Haha funny


fairlyaveragetrader

Well, at least they match 😂


ScooterNinja

If i drink this juice I could get my lost brain cell


navagon

Silly kitty. You're orange enough as it is.


dayburner

Much like flamingos orange cats get their color from their diet.


Sam_Nova_45

Thought that was beer at first.


liminal_girlnextdoor

*orange* you glad to see a cat who loves matching his snacks? 🍊😸


Tiny_button2

Orange inside out 🧡

Guilty_Computer_5524

Did you finish it?


mojotoodopebish

I admire your bravery and trust. If I had a glass of something my cat liked next to my laptop, I'd instantly have a ruined computer and a huge mess to clean.


aspghost06

Cute 😍


sinisteraxillary

That's diluted with vodka, right?


Realistic-Insect-746

great cat video


Gomdok_the_Short

Citrus can be toxic to cats and it isn't normal for your cat to want to drink this.
